Elva Wang, 9th grader：

This trip is the second time that I’ve gotten in touch with the students in Dublin School. Last time we went to ChangBai Mountain and watched the skiing competition. Their persistence really amazed me. Once they find their dream or interests, like skiing, they spend all their enthusiasm in it and never give up. Maybe that’s the difference between us and them.

一起上課：感受討論式教學(xué)模式 

Fortunately, this time we went to their school and spent a whole day with the students, one-on-one, shadowing their schedule. Studying with them and experiencing their life. That amazed me again, because their lifestyle is really different from ours.

課堂好似專(zhuān)題研討會(huì), 學(xué)生與老師,學(xué)生與學(xué)生互動(dòng)

Firstly, their classes are diverse. They can choose whatever they except for the classes they must take. They can use their cellphones during class, but nobody used them to entertain themselves. They know what that are supposed to do. They have enough time to play, and don’t just lie on the bed and watch “DouYin”. They do sports, join theme parties, or do research. That’s their meaning in life.Secondly, it’s very open in their school. This is very different from the public school in Beijing. They can practice in real life. They can also choose their major. If you are a sports person, they you can spend ore time doing sports.

The school supports and agrees with that. The school also provides, facilities, equipment and chances to help achieve your goal.Last the food in Dublin is pretty good. It’s pretty healthy and delicious. The environment is also beautiful, with plenty of plants and lovely animals. It’s a good place to rest after study. Additionally, their library is amazing. It is broken into two parts, a group study area and a place where you can study alone.

美麗的校園環(huán)境

這次交流是我第二次和都柏林學(xué)校的學(xué)生接觸。上次的接觸是在中國(guó)長(zhǎng)白山觀看滑雪比賽。他們對(duì)體育的堅(jiān)持讓我印象深刻。一旦他們找到了自己的夢(mèng)想和興趣，比如滑雪，他們就會(huì)充滿(mǎn)熱情，永不言棄�？赡苓@就是我們和他們之間的差距。

先進(jìn)的機(jī)器人實(shí)驗(yàn)室

幸運(yùn)的是，來(lái)都柏林學(xué)校進(jìn)行了一天的交流, 我們一對(duì)一地跟隨他們的學(xué)生，完成一天的學(xué)習(xí)生活。讓我覺(jué)得有趣的是，他們的生活方式和我們很不一樣。

校園內(nèi)的天文館

首先，他們的課很多樣化，有很多選修課。他們可以在課上使用手機(jī)，但是沒(méi)有學(xué)生玩兒手機(jī)。他們自覺(jué)性很高，即使在課余時(shí)間，也不會(huì)浪費(fèi)時(shí)間看“抖音”。他們做很多運(yùn)動(dòng)，參加有主題的活動(dòng)和做研究工作，這對(duì)他們是更具有意義的。

第二，他們的學(xué)校抱有很開(kāi)放的態(tài)度，這點(diǎn)和中國(guó)學(xué)校很不同。他們學(xué)的東西比較實(shí)用，而且也可以選課。如果你很喜歡運(yùn)動(dòng)，那么你可以花更多時(shí)間在體育上。學(xué)校支持和鼓勵(lì)學(xué)生這樣做。學(xué)校也會(huì)盡力提供設(shè)施、器材和各種機(jī)會(huì)幫助實(shí)現(xiàn)學(xué)生的目標(biāo)。

合二為一的化學(xué)教室/化學(xué)實(shí)驗(yàn)室

最后，都柏林學(xué)校的伙食也很不錯(cuò) ：既健康又好吃。學(xué)校環(huán)境優(yōu)美，有很多植物和可愛(ài)的小動(dòng)物。學(xué)習(xí)之余也可以放松。另外，他們的圖書(shū)館也非常棒，提供了小組學(xué)習(xí)和單獨(dú)學(xué)習(xí)兩塊區(qū)域。

上午結(jié)束后，都柏林高中校長(zhǎng)Brad Bates和學(xué)生們交流上午的體驗(yàn)

跟Elva同學(xué)具有相同體驗(yàn)的同學(xué)還有很多，通過(guò)一對(duì)一的深入交流和實(shí)際體驗(yàn)，學(xué)生們真正體驗(yàn)到了美國(guó)寄宿學(xué)校的生活和課堂，同時(shí)還交到了新的朋友，是學(xué)生們打開(kāi)國(guó)際視野的絕佳機(jī)會(huì)。
