李华同学

多年高考英语作文“钉子户”

英语菜鸟却坚持写信求助第一人

中国家喻户晓的明星高中生

今年却缺席了全国多地的高考卷英语作文题

#李华不写信了#一举冲上热搜榜

有网友为李华鸣不平:

“可怜我李华这么多年冒着个人信息被暴露的风险给你们行方便

可最后呢?2020年,这么重要的年份,竟然把我除名了,这么多年终究是错付了”

“是2020的李华站的不够高吗?”

也有网友打趣,李华等不及,自己写了!

“因为高考延期一个月,所以李华等不及就自己写了…”

最多的网友发出感叹,祝贺李华终于毕业!

本着对李华同学负责任的态度,坚持每一位还没毕业的李华都应该得到帮助的信念,今年我们又邀请了几位CGTN的外籍编辑, 以北京卷“自律”作为题目,现场battle:

Studying at home was tough at first. So many distractions – food, games… parents.一开始在家学习很难。太多让人分心的事情了——食物、游戏……还有父母。Even the dog got in the way. I wanted to learn, but my concentration levels were low. And our class survey showed my friends were struggling too.就连狗也挡了路。我想学习,但我的注意力水平很低。我们的课堂调查显示我的朋友们也在挣扎。We’re used to being at school, helping each other. Adapting to being away was more difficult than I expected. I asked my mum and dad for some advice. 我们习惯了在学校里互相帮助。适应离开的生活比我想象的要困难得多。我向爸爸妈妈征求了一些建议。"Picture home as school during study-time, and agree some rewards with your friends," they said. "Please don't interrupt me when I'm working then," I said, "and stop the dog barking." 把学习期间的家想象成学校,和朋友们商定一些奖励。”“那时候请不要打扰我工作,”我说,“还有,别让狗叫了。”"Deal," they said. So my classmates and I devised a plan. We’d study until we'd all completed our tasks, and play games together online only when everyone had finished their work.“交易,”他们说。所以我和同学们制定了一个计划。我们会一直学习直到完成我们的任务,只有当每个人都完成了他们的工作,我们才一起在网上玩游戏。And soon, though the interruptions continued, we were much more productive. 很快,尽管干扰还在继续,我们的工作效率大大提高了。

——哥写的不是作文,是小说。

I must admit, looking at that performance review was not just upsetting, it was humiliating.我必须承认,看到绩效考核不仅让人沮丧,更是一种羞辱。Our class had built a reputation of notable achievements, beating other regional schools in our grade level. 我们班已经建立了卓越的声誉,击败了我们年级的其他地区学校。But we had never faced the challenges that would come with spending so much time studying from home.但我们从未遇到过花这么多时间在家学习所带来的挑战。

My parents couldn't believe it either. When I showed them the evaluation they were just as disappointed.我的父母也不敢相信。当我给他们看评估结果时,他们同样感到失望。They reminded me of the responsibility I have as the class leader to do — well — just that, lead. So after a few hours conferring with them about what we could do to bounce back and make our parents and teachers proud, we found the perfect solution: accountability.他们提醒我,作为班长,我有责任去做——好——就是领导。因此,在与他们讨论了几个小时之后,我们可以做些什么来恢复元气,让我们的父母和老师感到自豪,我们找到了完美的解决方案:问责制。

See, accountability is not just the pressure we give ourselves to push us to do better. Accountability is most effective when peers encourage and challenge one another. 看,责任不仅仅是我们给自己的压力,来推动我们做得更好。当同事之间互相鼓励和挑战时,问责制是最有效的。Spending so much time at home, my mother saw how much of a distraction computers are. When used correctly they can be quite useful. 由于在家呆了那么长时间,我母亲意识到电脑是多么让人分心。如果使用得当,它们会非常有用。Back in her day, computers were a great luxury. But nowadays, computers offer so many ways to entertain us: movies, TV shows, games, etc. 在她那个时代,电脑是一种奢侈品。但是现在,电脑提供了很多娱乐我们的方式:电影,电视节目,游戏,等等。And yes, like almost anyone, I too spent a great amount of time doing those things when I should've been paying attention to my teacher's lectures online. 是的,和几乎所有人一样,我也花了大量的时间做这些事情,而我本应该在网上关注老师的讲课。

That's when it came to me: I would use computers to keep us accountable.我突然想到:我会用电脑来让我们对自己负责。

I created a WeChat group with my classmates and we agreed to meet – though quite reluctantly – on Saturday at 10 p.m. for a video conference call, exactly the time when the new episode of the popular Chinese series "The Bad Kids" (yin mi de jiao luo) becomes available online.我创建了一个微信集团与我的同学和我们同意见面,虽然很不情愿,周六下午10点视频电话会议,具体的新一集的时候中国流行系列“坏孩子”(阴焦米德罗)在线可用。This was our first major test. Given how disappointed all our parents were, I could capitalize on scoring points by making all of us prove to them that we're serious about performing better come next evaluation. 这是我们的第一次重大考验。考虑到我们的父母有多失望,我可以充分利用分数,让我们所有人在下次的评估中向他们证明我们是认真的,想要表现得更好。

The 13 of us the rest of the evening discussing ways we could keep tabs on each other and test each other right before and right after our online class.当晚剩下的时间里,我们13个人都在讨论如何密切关注对方,并在在线课程前后互相测试。We assigned a class buddy to each other and every Saturday for a whole month we gathered again at the same time to then quiz one another on that week's lecture. 我们给彼此分配了一个班友,每个周六我们都会在同一时间聚会,然后对那周的课进行测试。

To our surprise it was much more fun than we thought. By the third week we even forgot about "The Bad Kids." See we were now the good kids who, of course, also binged watched the show after our video call. 令我们惊讶的是,它比我们想象的有趣得多。到了第三周,我们甚至忘记了“坏孩子”。看,我们现在是好孩子,当然,在我们的视频通话后,我们也会疯狂地看这个节目。We stroke this balance between entertainment and study and somehow found a way to make it worthwhile. 我们在娱乐和学习之间取得了平衡,并且找到了一种让学习有意义的方法。

By the end of the fourth week, we took our monthly school exam, which also included an updated report on student attention rates. I got a call from teacher Yang Friday evening. 在第四周结束时,我们参加了每月一次的学校考试,其中还包括一份最新的学生注意力率报告。星期五晚上我接到杨老师的电话。Needless to say, our scores were not only back up, they were better than ever before. This was definitely something to be proud of. We, as a team came together, made the necessary sacrifices, and we outperformed every other class, again. 不用说,我们的分数不仅落后了,而且比以往任何时候都好。这绝对是一件值得骄傲的事情。作为一个团队,我们团结在一起,做出了必要的牺牲,我们再次超越了其他所有班级。But what I take the most from this experience is the bond we've created by meeting every Saturday. It's now become a routine that may continue as the school year goes by. 但我从这次经历中收获最多的是我们通过每周六聚会而建立的联系。现在这已经成为一种惯例,而且可能会随着学年的推移而持续下去。

——I was in the mind of a high schooler.

Every student at Hongxing Middle School has been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic in some way. Our lives have been upended, daily routines altered, and future plans clouded by uncertainty. 红星中学的每个学生都在某种程度上受到了COVID-19大流行的影响。我们的生活被颠覆了,日常生活被改变了,未来的计划被不确定笼罩着。

A recent survey showing the level of self-discipline among my classmates has come to my attention. And I must say, I'm quite disappointed in the results. Studying from home has drained the motivation and perseverance from many of you. 最近一项关于同学自律程度的调查引起了我的注意。我必须说,我对结果很失望。在家学习已经耗尽了你们很多人的动力和毅力。I’m certain most of you don't even get off the couch to change your shirt or brush your teeth.我敢肯定,你们大多数人甚至不会离开沙发去换衬衫或刷牙。

How can we fix this? Are we destined to be the worst-performing class of Hongxing Middle School graduates? Are we destined to score so poorly on the gaokao that our parents will be too embarrassed to claim us in public?我们如何解决这个问题?难道我们注定要成为红星中学毕业生中表现最差的班级吗?难道我们注定要在高考中取得如此糟糕的成绩,以至于我们的父母在公共场合羞于承认我们吗? I discussed this lack of gumption with my parents and came up with a solution to our woes. 我和父母讨论了我缺乏进取心的问题,并想出了一个解决问题的办法。

In a Zoom call with my classmates, I revealed the solution: We should all lie on the next survey. Yes, you heard me correctly. After speaking to many of you, I realized I cannot motivate you beyond your capacity. 在一次与同学的电话交谈中,我透露了解决办法:我们都应该在下次调查中撒谎。是的,你没听错。在与你们许多人交谈之后,我意识到我无法激励你们超出自己的能力范围。You're a slothful group of students, to say the least. However, in order to appease our parents and teachers, we should all fabricate our answers. Whether or not you truly become motivated is not my concern. 退一步说,你们是一群懒惰的学生。然而,为了安抚我们的父母和老师,我们都应该捏造我们的答案。你是否真的变得有动力不是我所关心的。

Three months later, we took another survey, and the results could not have been more impressive. When speaking to our basket-weaving teacher, Mr. Han, I could hear the joy in his voice after seeing our much-improved survey results. Fortunately, he'll never know the truth.三个月后,我们进行了另一项调查,结果令人印象深刻。当我和编织篮的韩老师交谈时,我能从他的声音中听到我们的调查结果有了很大的改善后的喜悦。幸运的是,他永远也不会知道真相。

——不要超字数,真的好难。

At the beginning I didn't realize self-discipline could be such a serious problem for 3rd-grade students giving that the Gaokao was already upon us, until I saw the survey result. How come so many classmates cannot focus during online courses?一开始我并没有意识到自律对于三年级的学生来说是一个如此严重的问题,因为高考已经迫在眉睫,直到我看到了调查结果。为什么这么多同学在网上上课时无法集中注意力?

I brought this question to my parents at dinner. To my surprise, they both seemed to find it quite understandable and encouraged me to solve the problem through communication and brainstorming. In the next few days, I organized a series of conference calls with the entire class and asked everyone to talk about the difficulties they encountered with taking classes online and come up with solutions together.晚饭时,我把这个问题告诉了父母。让我惊讶的是,他们似乎都觉得很容易理解,并鼓励我通过沟通和头脑风暴来解决问题。在接下来的几天里,我与全班组织了一系列电话会议,让大家讨论在网上上课时遇到的困难,并一起提出解决方案。

Three months later, the new survey results ended up shockingly good. Our teacher praised my efforts, but really, as the class leader, it pleased me the most to see everyone get better grades.三个月后,新的调查结果令人震惊地好。老师表扬了我的努力,但说真的,作为班长,看到大家都取得更好的成绩,我很高兴。
