已经可以开始听见蝉的鸣叫和空调的嗡嗡作响声，草木终于又披上绿色的外衣，天空亦变得阴晴不定。在这样燥热却美好的夏天里，我们毕业了。With cicada’s chirping and air conditioning’s buzzing sound, the vegetation finally put on a green coat, and the sky also becomes uncertain. In such hot but beautiful summer, we graduated.毕业典礼以八位同学朗诵《相信未来》开始：少年挺拔直立的身姿，清晰有力的吐字，举手投足间都流露着青春的朝气与美好。相信未来，热爱生命，这也是即将升入高中的我们应有的态度。The graduation ceremony began with the recitation of “believe in the future” by eight students. The young man’s upright posture, clear and powerful words revealed vigor and beauty. Believing in the future and enjoying life is the attitude we should hold in high school.
而在此之后，全力校长和学生代表严益清分别上台发言致辞，一个点明协和对学生的期望，一个道出协和学子的心声。我们也得以在这样的时刻拥有一个追忆过往、畅想未来的机会，愿每一个毕业于协和的学生，都能拥有可爱的青春回忆和灿烂辉煌的人生。And after this, student representative Yan Yiqing and Principal Quan delivered speeches respectively. Yan talked about the aspirations of the students while Principal Quan points out the expectations from the teachers. We also had a chance to recall the past and imagine the future in such a moment. I wish every student who graduated from SUIS could have lovely youth memories and brilliant life.
四年光阴如梦，我们舍弃了那么多，坚持了那么久，而这一切都将结束于那一本红色的毕业证书上。当校长将这些证书一份份颁发给同学们的时候，青葱岁月亦仿佛拥有了完整的样貌。Four years have passed just like a dream. We gave up so much and adhere to so long, and today all this will end in a red diploma. When the principal handed out the certificates to the students, the youth seemed to have a complete look.看着老师和家长们精心准备的毕业蛋糕缓缓推进会场，我们感动于他们这一路默默的陪伴，感激于他们为我们操劳的一切。Watching the graduation cake, we were moved by the company of our teachers and parents all the way, and appreciated all the efforts they made for us.在短暂的休息后，毕业典礼的下半场开始了。音乐响起，年轻的人成双成对入场，灯光温柔地洒在他们身上，仿佛为青春披上一层彩霞。一个男生搭配一个女生，从大剧院的门口一直走向舞台的中央，他们摆出或可爱或帅气的pose，再缓缓下台结束这场青春秀。
After a short break, the second half of the ceremony began.Music sounded, then young people enter in pairs. The light gently sprinkled on their bodies like a layer of rosy clouds. They put on a cute or handsome pose, and then slowly went off the stage.
紧随其后的，就是九年级同学们尽心准备已久的节目表演。在一个多小时的表演时间里，我们听到男孩子的乐队演奏，看到女孩子热情洋溢的舞蹈，有同学一起歌颂夜空中最亮的那颗星，也有同学用说唱告诉我们生活不易，未来可期。更有全班共同出演的情景剧，诉说着少年关于梦想与热爱的执着。
In more than an hour ,we heard the boys band performance, saw girls enthusiastic dance; there are students singing together and students with rap told us although life is not easy, the future can be expected. Moreover, the whole class acted together in the sitcom, telling the youth’s persistence about dreams and love.
此外，还有演绎初三生活的小品和女生的合唱。在这里，我们可以直接体会到少年们有关青春与未来的思考。在初中生涯郑重地拉下帷幕的这一天，他们用自己的方式迎接最为盛大的离别。This was followed by a show the ninth graders had been preparing for quite a long time.
“最初的梦想，绝对会到达”整个九年级的所有同学以这样一首歌结束了他们的表演。而在他们身后，播放着每一个人最初的梦想和追求。请永远相信——不忘初心，方得始终。Watching each person’s original dream shown on the big screen, we believe “The original dream, will definitely reach”.在典礼的最后，是学生们给校领导和老师献花以及植树活动的环节。我们用这种方式感谢万源协和对我们的帮助和陪伴，青春路上，幸会协和。再见，协和美丽的校园。再见，和蔼可亲的老师们。再见，熟悉的班级和座位。再见，那一堆堆的练习册和模拟卷……
At the end of the ceremony, the students presented flowers to the school leaders and teachers. In this way, we thank Wanyuan SUIS for its help and companionship. Goodbye, beautiful campus. Goodbye, the teachers ; Goodbye, familiar classrooms and seats; Goodbye, exercise books and exam papers…
