· 中文阅读擂台 ·

3月30日，2023年度中文阅读擂台赛（Battle of Books）正式开战。

On March 30th, the 2023 Chinese Reading Challenge (Battle of the Books) officially began.

AIC的七位参赛选手清早集结，前往赛场—AISG。

The seven contestants from AIC gathered early atAISG.

中文阅读擂台赛由AISG主办，愿景是提供一个平台，激发学生的阅读兴趣，让学生爱上阅读。本届比赛分为两个年级组别：初中组（Grade 6-8）和高中组（Grade 9-10）。AIC派出了一支由9年级和10年级学生组成的队伍参加高中组的比赛。

Chinese Battle of the Bookswas hosted by AISG, with the vision of providing a platform to develop a strong interest in reading. This competition is divided into two grade groups: the junior high school group (Grade 6-8) and the high school group (Grade 9-10). AIC sent a team consisting of 9th and 10th grade students to participate in the high school group competition.

参赛的七位同学分别是：IG1的Yauyau Qin，IG2的Gabrielle Lei、Cindy Xie、Bella Cai、Lin、Roy Zhou和William Wei。他们从去年11月接到参赛任务之后，就按照商定的方案，各自完成指定的书目阅读。在长达5个月的时间里，他们经历了疫情、期末考试、寒假以及IG模考，在应对繁重的学习任务之余，坚持阅读，以佳作滋养心灵，踏上了一次难得的阅读之旅。

The students participating are Yauyau Qinfrom IG1, Gabrielle Lei, Cindy Xie, Bella Cai , Lin, Roy Zhou, and William Wei from IG2. After receiving the competition task in November last year, they completed the designated book reading according to the agreed plan. During a period of up to 5 months, they experienced the epidemic, final exams, winter vacation, and IG mock exams. In addition to dealing with heavy learning tasks, they persisted in reading, nourishing their souls with excellent works, and embarked on a rare journey of reading.

比赛日当天，AIC团队的成员与来自广州其他国际学校的同学一道，以书会友，共赴一场阅读的盛宴。在东道主AISG的精心组织和盛情招待下，高中组别的六支队伍进入了第一轮淘汰赛。在这个比赛环节中，选手们需要在答题纸上完成60道选择题和40道填空题，总分为100分。AIC的学子们凭借对作品语言风格的熟练把握和对书中细节的高度关注获得了95分，顺利进入决赛。

On the day of the competition, members of the AIC team, together with students form other international schools in Guangzhou, went to a reading feast to make friends through books. Under the careful organization and hospitality of the host AISG, six teams from the high school group entered the first round of knockout rounds. In this competition, the contestants need to complete 60 multiple-choice questions and 40 fill in the blank questions on the answer sheet, with a total score of 100 points. The students of AIC earned 95 points with their proficiency in the language style of their works and high attention to the details in the book, successfully advancing to the finals.

决赛以抢答的形式决出胜负，答对一题获得一分，答错一题则扣掉一分。AIC的参赛选手们对于答题很有把握，但求胜心切，数次出现失误，提前按下抢答按钮，屡屡失分。在战况不利的关键时刻，大家稳定心态专注比赛，发挥团队合作的力量相互配合，最终做到了每答必对，击败了来自AISG的队伍，惜败于黄埔区华外同文外国语学校和科学城爱莎外籍人员子女学校，获得了本届擂台赛高中组的季军。

The final is decided through a quick answer, with one point awarded for one correct answer and one point deducted for one wrong answer. The AIC contestants are very confident in answering questions, but they are eager to win. They have made mistakes several times and pressed the answer button in advance, repeatedly losing points. At a critical moment when the battle situation was unfavorable, everyone remained stable and focused on the game, leveraging the power of teamwork to cooperate with each other. In the end, AIC team achieved every answer right and defeated the team from AISG. They were defeated by the Affiliated foreign Launuage School of SCNU and ISA Science City international school. Finally AIC won the third place in the high school group of the

competition.

通过这次比赛，AIC的学子体验了阅读的快乐，积累了竞赛经验，结交了同龄的朋友，铸就了团队精神，收获了站上奖台的荣耀。这不仅是一场享受阅读的盛宴，更是一条迈向成长的赛道。

Through this competition, AIC students experienced the joy of reading, accumulated competition experience, made friends with peers, forged team spirit, and gained the honor of standing on the podium. This is not only a feast for enjoying reading, but also a track towards growth.

祝愿AIC的每一位学子都能在阅读中探索无限可能的世界！

Wishing every AICer explore the world of infinite possibilities through reading!
