上海金苹果双语学校国际部开学典礼

国际部校长涂彪发言致辞

亲爱的老师、同学们：

2021年的曙光已经洒向我们美丽的校园，在这辞旧迎新的美好时刻，我们代表学校，向奋发向上、孜孜以求的全体教师，向努力学习、追求上进的全体同学，致以最亲切的问候和最诚挚的新年祝福!

2020年国际部在阅读课程化发展，德育课程化发展，职业规划与升学指导课程化发展都取得了较好的成绩。2020年美国课程中心在托福考试中有两名同学取得了115分的高分，多名同学获得了100分以上的好成绩，李可欣同学被康奈尔大学早申录取;剑桥中心同学在雅思考试中也有取得7.5分高分的好成绩，多名同学被帝国理工学院，UCL，KCL等名校录取;华文中心很多同学都在备考复旦，交大，人民大学的入学考试，预祝大家取得更加优异的成绩。2020年学部建立了基于学生心理的哈格空间，搭架了沙盘治疗框架，为学生心理发展保驾护航。不仅如此，本学期国际部在外教质量监控和管理方面也取得了一定的成绩，一批优秀的外籍教师团队加盟金苹果学校，为金苹果国际化发展添砖加瓦。

为了提升学生成绩，切实促进学生学业成绩的提升，学校组织晚自修培优补差，狠抓教学质量，促进同学们全面而有个性地发展，2021年我们推出了金苹果学校新的晚自修方案。国际部晚自修主要分为两个阶段具体落实：阶段：17：45--20：15，即晚自修，根据上学期学生期末考试成绩，以提升学生成绩，培优补差为主。具体来讲，美国课程以英语和AP统考科目为主，华文以HSK，英语和数学为主，剑桥以英语和统考科目为主。第二阶段：20：30--21：30，即第二晚自修，以提优补差类课程为主，以特色类和娱乐类课程为辅。华文中心主要以补差为主，剑桥和美国中心主要以提优为主。另外，学生可以在第二晚自修充分发挥自己的个性，培养自己的特长，也可以选择继续学习和自习。第二晚自习除了部分还选在自习和学生的同学外，其他同学以班级为单位选择特色类和娱乐类课程。

新学期我们期望所有同学树立正确的学习理念。请所有同学坚信：学习不能改变人生的起点，但可以改变人生的终点;学习不能改变人生的长度，但可以改变人生的宽度。教学不如要学，要学不如会学，会学不如好学，好学不如乐学。请大家多去尝试自主学习，合作探究，集体交流和共同提升，去感受学习，领悟知识，思考问题，提升技能。

最后我想说的是，评判一所学校怎么样，我们不需要听汇报，也不需要看各种统计资料，只需要看学生和老师们的眼神：好学校的学生和老师眼睛里透露的都是自信，学生是求知的欲望和对知识的尊重，老师是职业的自豪感，精力充沛和探索的兴趣，都是浓浓的书卷气!在这里和各位老师和同学共勉，谢谢大家!

国际部外教代表Damion发言

Beloved staff and dearest students

A very good morning to each and everyone of you.It is indeed great to see all of you gathered in the morning after a short while away, I have always questioned myself?

What is so special about success (Cheng gong)? Why can’t I be second or third in anything I do? Is it necessary to have success (cheng gong) always?

I would say yes Success gives you fame (shen ming ) and fame gives you notable status (mian zi).

Now, what is the secret of success?

If we dig and explore the secret of success there is only one thought behind it

“Patience (nai xin) and Perseverance” (yi Li)

All great achievers have reached victory through constant Perseverance. Famous scientists and sports persons never gave up and stood with patience till they tasted victory.

It is rightly said that “Anything well begun is half done”. Similarly I cannot deny that anything that is started with positivity (ji jie Xing) is already done

国际部学生代表赵同学发言

Honestly, I don’t think my tips to get a good score of TOEFL exam is useful. I believe that a lot of you will have no problem with the reading and listening section because I think you guys will figure out these problems as long as you have a strong will and patience.

However, most of the Asian students, including myself, have some difficulties on the speaking section. To overcome such difficulties, we should not misunderstand the value and purpose of language. I believe the reason why we are learning a language is to express our ideas properly and have a fluent conversation.

Some people, especially Asian people, usually call their English accent by themselves as Chinglish, Konglish, and Janglis, and these are not proper English, or at least I don’t think so. Have you heard about Singlish? This is Singaporean English, or Indian English. These are all part of English, because the usage of English is so broad, so people will have different English accents. The point is we don’t really need to have any concern about our accent. Actually, the thing that we have to be concerned about is intonation, proper sentences, fluency, and wise word choices. So when other people try to point out your accent then screw them. My English is a mixture of some kind a middle class Filipino English and Konglish. Speaking English is not about having a British accent or an American accent. The purpose of speaking is to deliver your idea to someone else.

The second way to improve your English speaking is very simple. Having a conversation with other people in English as much as possible. I think you can deal with that in our school. Don’t be afraid to use English with your local teacher, those teachers are really smart and capable, and don’t be afraid of surrounding yourself with foreign students or teachers. Screw the bias and prejudice from the mass media or internet. You can always start a conversation with foreigners with simple and lame topics. How is your day? Or how is it in China? We are always welcome to have a chitchat with you. I believe being a social person and breaking the language and cultural barrier is more important than having a high score on the TOEFL exam because lots of us will study abroad and spend our time with various people.

Finally, the last thing I want to mention is something that is not related to this topic. I think we are the luckiest people in the world. Our parents financially support us and give us a chance to see the world. There are millions of people in China who are capable and willing to study abroad, yet they cannot. So please don’t lose this precious opportunity and share your privilege after college to help those millions of brothers and sisters and make your country and a world a better place.

颁奖仪式

感谢每一位辛勤付出的老师们，没有你们的孜孜不倦，就没有学生们的丰硕果实。在上学期期末评优中涌现出一批品学兼优的学生，剑桥中心有一些同学参加了加拿大滑铁卢大学中高级数学竞赛，并且在比赛过程中表现优异获得了许多奖项。
