智慧火花，点亮科学梦想

      科学如灯塔，照亮人类探索未知的航程；它赋予我们洞察世界奥秘的能力，是推动社会进步的强大引擎，不仅塑造了我们的现在，更引领我们走向更加光明与智慧的未来。

Science is like a lighthouse, illuminating the voyage of mankind to explore the unknown; It gives us the ability to see into the mysteries of the world, is a powerful engine to promote social progress, not only shape our present, but also lead us to a brighter and wiser future.

      在本周三，来自协和教育集团多个校区的同学们共聚协和教科校区，共同参与了这次跨校区科学周。我们BC课程部也积极参与了这次活动，下面让我们来看看学生们对这次活动的感想。

On Wednesday, students from several campuses of the Xiehe Education gathered at the Xiehe Jiaoke Campus to participate in the cross-campus science fair. Our BC program was also actively involved in the event, so let’s take a look at what the students thought about it.

Essie & Falisha：

      我们参加这场科学展，不单单是为了获得名次或荣誉，更是为了体验科学精神的不同诠释方式。古人云：逸一时，误一世。参加这次活动不仅增添了我们的履历，还培养了我们积极探究的精神。除了我们自己的项目，我们还从其他同学那里了解到了很多有趣的科学知识。比如冰在不同液体中的溶解速度，不同溶剂对指甲油的卸甲效果等，这些项目都是非常有趣的。这次活动很精彩，今后我们还会继续参加！

We participate in this science fair not only for the sake of ranking or honor, but also to experience the different ways in which the scientific spirit is interpreted. As the ancients say: escape for a while, mistake for a lifetime. Participating in this event not only adds to our resume, but also cultivates our spirit of active inquiry. In addition to our own projects, we also learned a lot of interesting scientific knowledge from other students. For example, the dissolution rate of ice in different liquids, the effect of different solvents on nail polish removal, etc., these items are very interesting. It was a wonderful event and we will continue to participate in it in the future!

      我们从化学剂泛滥污染环境受到启发，并从富含磷酸盐（富营养化物质，会导致水中缺氧使水生生物死亡）的洗发水入手，利用有机的中国传统草药，制作了一款不含磷酸盐的洗发水，希望为环境保护尽一份力。我们的有机洗发水虽然只是一个简单的实验，但它却展现了科学在日常生活中的实用性和创造力。这次经历让我重新审视了科学，也激发了我对科学的兴趣。我意识到，科学并不是一成不变的理论和公式，而是充满着无限的可能性和创意。

We were inspired by the flood of chemicals polluting the environment, and started with a shampoo rich in phosphates (eutrophic substances that cause lack of oxygen in the water and kill aquatic life), using organic traditional Chinese herbs, we made a phosphate-free shampoo, hoping to do our part for the environment. Our organic shampoo is a simple experiment, but it demonstrates the utility and creativity of science in everyday life. This experience gave me a new look at science and sparked my interest in it. I realized that science is not an immutable theory and formula, but is full of infinite possibilities and creativity.

Austin & Tony

      在我们的项目中，我们将不同物质分别铺在几个冰块上，比较不同物质的融冰效率。参加这次科学展是一段不平凡的旅程，它不仅考验了我们的科学知识和演讲能力，也让我们感到无比的自豪和快乐，尤其是当我们听到自己的名字被宣布为第一名的时候，这是一个出乎我们意料的时刻。我非常感谢在这段旅程中支持我们的每一个人。怀着对科学的热爱，我们很高兴能深入到自己感兴趣的领域，参加更多的科学展览和竞赛。

In our Science Fair project, we compared different substances’ efficiency of ice-melting by spreading them onto several ice cubes respectively. Participating in this activity has been an extraordinary journey, one that has not only tested our science knowledge and speaking skills but also filled us with immense pride and joy, especially the time we heard our names announced as the first-place winner and it was a moment that out of our expectations. I am immensely grateful to everyone who supported us throughout this journey. With our love for science, we are excited to dive deeper into the field of interest and participate in more science fairs and competitions.

      在周五的BC集会上，我们还邀请到了李小卫先生，为同学们讲解了有关生物学的知识，和同学们积极互动，拓宽了同学们的视野，也让同学们对生物科学有了更为深刻的认识。

At the assembly on Friday morning, we also invited Mr. Li Xiaowei to explain the knowledge of biology to the students, and actively interact with students，broaden the students’ horizons, and also let the students have a deeper understanding of biological science.

      李小卫先生，现为上海交通大学生物医学工程学院副研究员，主要研究方向为3D空间生物学、组织透明化与3D成像、超高分辨率生物成像等，建立了具有自主知识产权的3D空间生物学技术方法，在Angewandte Chemie等期刊上发表论文40余篇，获得发明专利授权15项。

      BC课程的科学课程包括物理、化学、解剖学和生理学、环境科学等课程，旨在培养学生们的科学素养、实践能力和创新精神，全面提高学生的科学素养。在此基础上，引导学生们关注社会，为他们未来的学术和职业发展打下基础。通过这次科学展，我们BC课程部学生展现出了极高的科学素养，祝贺他们取得了优异的成绩！

The science curriculum of BC program includes physics, chemistry, anatomy and physiology, environmental science and other courses, aiming to cultivate students’ scientific literacy, practical ability and innovative spirit, and comprehensively improve students’ scientific literacy. On this basis, students are guided to pay attention to society and lay the foundation for their future academic and professional development. Through this science fair, we have demonstrated the high scientific literacy of our BC students. Congratulations to them for their excellent results!
