在本周一上午，一年级郭恺晟同学的爸爸来到学校报告厅，为一年级小朋友们带来了“航运浅学”讲座。
This Monday morning, our Grade 1 student Guo Kaisheng’s father came to the auditorium and brought us an open lecture about “shipping”.
乍听“航运”一词，同学们都觉得一头雾水。通过郭恺晟爸爸的生动讲解，让大家对运输这一传统行业不再陌生。可能看似不起眼的一支笔、一本书都曾经漂洋过海，历经数日甚至数月才来到我们的日常生活中。
When listening to the word “shipping”, students feel confused. Through the vivid explanation from Mr. Guo, we are no longer unfamiliar with the traditional transportation industry. Even a pen or a book that may seem insignificant, might have been floating across the sea, after several days or even months to come to our daily life.
在了解了航运和空运出口流程之后，同学们都化身为“小小企业家”，试着根据不同货物的特点、运输成本和目的地选择不同的运输方式。
After understanding the shipping and air export process, the students were turned into “small entrepreneurs”, trying to choose different modes of transportation according to the characteristics of different goods, transportation costs and destinations.
在经济全球化的大背景下，发达的运输业缩小了世界的差异。这一场讲座，缩小了“大海”与同学们的距离。
Under the background of economic globalization, the developed transportation industry has narrowed the difference of the world. This lecture reduced the distance between the “sea” and the students.

Can we find some rule in the series of the numbers 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144?

5月14日，三年级的全体同学有幸聆听了一场生动的讲座——《有趣的科学》。P3A的赵梓宁妈妈邀请到了“中国克隆猴之父”孙强博士，他为我们开启了此次智慧之旅。
On 14th of May, G3 students had the opportunity to attend a lecture on interesting science which was given by Professor Sun Qiang known as the ‘father of cloned monkeys’. Many thanks to the mother of P3A student, Zhao Zining for her invitation to Professor Sun who started an intelligence tour for us.
孙博士首先向大家展示了一些特别的图片，“咦，这个图片怎么动起来了？”“同一张纸上的三角形怎么有一个更亮呢？”“我看到灰色的点啦！”大家一边看着图片，一边疑问不断，原来“眼见不一定为实”。接着孙博士又引用《两小儿辩日》的文章，在提问环节中，同学们跃跃欲试，不亦乐乎，最后大家总结出看东西不能只用眼睛，还需要动脑筋呢！
First, Professor Sun showed us some amazing pictures. We were struck by many questions like ‘Why do the pictures animate?’ ‘Why one of the triangle in the same picture is brighter? ’ ‘Why can I see the grey dot? ’And these questions revealed a truth that not all that we saw is not true. Then, Professor Sun quoted an essay, Two children’s Debate on the Moon to encourage the students to think. Many students were aroused interest in it and raised their hands, trying to answer the questions. In the end, we made a conclusion that think more was helpful.
有趣的科学还可以出现在哪里呢？看着ppt上一行奇怪的数字，我们的同学却丝毫没有被考倒，立马有同学站起来响亮地回答道：“斐波纳契数列！”在孙博士的介绍下，大家对于这个数列的来源和运用也有了更多的了解，有同学不禁感叹道：“哇，原来学好数学有这么多的用处啊。”看来大家都要暗下决心，好好探索数学世界喽！
Where else can we find the interesting science? Looking at a row of numbers on PPT, the students had many ideas and some of them knew the answers. They were ‘Fibonacci series’. With the explanation of Professor Sun, we began to know about the series and know how use the series. Some students were so surprised by usefulness of Math that they seemed to make a discussion to explore the Math world.
最后，孙博士给我们看了克隆猴“中中”和“华华”的视频，这两只克隆猴分别诞生于2017年的11月27日和12月5日，是全世界首例通过体细胞克隆技术诞生的灵长类动物。看着视频中两只一模一样的小猴子，大家一边惊叹不已，一边又早已被它们的憨态可掬给彻底萌化了。告诉你一个小秘密哦，早出生10天的“中中”更加活泼一点，快去搜搜视频，看看你能不能分辨出这俩只克隆猴？
At the end of the lecture, Professor Sun introduced us two cloned monkeys, ‘Zhongzhong’ and ‘Huahua’ in a video. The two cloned monkeys were born on 27th of Oct and 5th of Dec 2017, which are the first two cell-cloned apes. We were surprised by their resemblance and cuteness. I can tell that ‘Zhongzhong’ is more active. But can you recognize two monkeys? If you want to try, why don’t you find the video online?
