大家上午好！

Good morning!

假期的余温还没有完全退去，新的学期已经悄然来临。随着寒假的结束，我们又将重新投入学校的学习生活当中。

The winter break has gone by before we knew it. The end of the holiday marks the beginning of another semester.

在这里，欢迎大家重新回到校园，在万象更新的此刻重新开始新一年的征程。

We welcome you back to our campus. From this moment forward, we begin a brand new journey in a brand new year.

本学期将会有许多重大的事件接踵而至，

This semester will be followed by many important events.

高一的同学或许会在本学期开始考虑高二的选课和未来的专业选择，高二的同学们将逐渐开始为自己的大学申请做准备，而高三的同学们，也就是深圳市枫叶学校第三届高中毕业生们，将在本学期结束后告别他们的高中生涯。

Our schoolmates from Grade 10 will be starting to plan for their future and major. While the students of Grade 11 will be preparing for their college application. As for the Grade 12 seniors, they will graduate by the end of this semester, which means the end of their high school life.

从萌芽、生长、到开花结果，每一步都需要紧密的筹划，我们的高中生活亦是如此，未来的挑战纷至沓来，我们也需要为此做好充分的准备。在这里，我号召各位同学在新的学期努力做好以下几点：

The seeds sprout, grow, and blossom, so do we. We will come across many upcoming challenges, therefore we need to be fully ready to face them. Here are some essential aspects that students should follow:

第一，专注于学习以及学术成绩的提升。学习知识是我们在学校的首要目的，也应当排在任何附加项目之前。然而，学习不能只停留在书本知识表面，在枫叶，我们更应该具备拓展并延伸知识面的能力，初步掌握自学能力，让学习知识由点到线，由线到面。First, we should mainly focus on our academic study and our grades. Learning is our primary goal, anything else should be in second place. But as we learn, we should think deeper and explore further. The knowledge we gain shouldn’t be limited by textbooks.

第二，挖掘自身的学习热情。尽管大多数情况下，我们会以被动的态度汲取知识，但我们始终倡导同学们不断审视自我、解剖内心、敢于承认并发扬我们的兴趣所在。这可以是对物理公式的好奇，也可以是对文学作品的欣赏，更可以是对音乐活着绘画的爱好。总之，希望我们都可以有一份让自己心无旁骛的热忱。在这里，梦我所梦，得我所愿。Second, we should have a passion for studying. Although we are obligated to learn, we should still discover more about ourselves and our interests during the process. This might be a curiosity for physics, or a love for literature, as well as music and art. In brief, I hope that everyone one of us can chase our dream, and find what we want.

第三，寻找自己的兴趣爱好，充盈自己的生活。学习对我们固然重要，但我们的生活却远不止学习。在课堂之外，我们也应该找到充盈自己的爱好与特长。琴房的钢琴声，舞蹈室的舞步，操场上挥洒的汗水，都与学习同样重要。更或者，单纯是静静地将自己置身于大自然之中，远离电子设备，聆听风声雨声，也未尝不是件快事。总之，我们要懂得完善自己的生活与人格。Third, find an interest to enrich ourselves. Learning is essential, but there’s more to life than just textbooks. Outside of the classroom, we can find ourselves within the melody of piano, the whisper of nature, or on a path of discovery in science. During the process, we improve ourseleves and our life.

最后，希望大家在学习和日常生活当中，设立道德底线，恪守法治红线，做一个品德高尚的人。位我上者，灿烂星空；道德律令，应当铭记在我们每一个人的心中。

Last but not least, I hope that at school and in our lives, we will always keep in mind of the morals and rules, for we should be a rightful person, before doing rightful things.

学校是知识的宝库，也是灵感的发源地，新的学期正式开始，愿大家学习生活顺利，也祝各位行此千载，学臻无穷。

School is a place for aspiration and inspiration. This is the beginning of a new semester, let us all embrace it and enjoy it. Here, I wish everyone a bright future.
