【国旗下讲话】文明伴我行

亲爱的老师、同学们:

Dear teachers and students, 

大家早上好！一种美在我们身边，飘逸在浮云上，深埋在土垒下，这是一种可以吸引灵魂的美，它就有是文明之美。

Good morning, everyone!  There is a beauty around us, which attracts our soul ,it is floating on clouds, buried deep in earth, that is the beauty of civilization.  

谈到文明，许多人都觉得它遥不可及，觉得讲文明是一种高不可攀的事。其实，文明就在我们身边，文明不求轰轰烈烈，只求实实在在。记得小时候，爸爸妈妈经常教导我要做一个讲文明的好孩子，上了学，老师也经常这样教导我们。对于他们的教育，开始我觉得很茫然，也不知如何去做。

When it comes to civilization, many people feel that civilization is out of reach and unattainable.In fact, civilization is just around us, civilization is not special , but real.  when I was a child, mom and dad often taught me to be a civilized boy.As I went to school, the teacher often taught us so.  As for their instruction, I don’t understand at first and did not know how to do it.  

现在我明白了，其实，文明就在我们身边:在公共汽车上，如果一不小心踩到别人，要说声“对不起”，这是一种文明；在你遇到困难时,别人帮助了你，要说声“谢谢”，这是一种文明；在校内或校外遇到老师时，要说声“老师好”，这是一种文明……

Now I understand, in fact, civilization is just around us: in the bus, if you step on someone carelessly, say “sorry”, When you are in trouble,  say “thank you” to the people helped you; Say “Hello teacher” when you meet a teacher in the school or outside the school, these are civilized behaviors ……  

“融四岁，能让梨”的故事家喻户晓，还有很多这样的故事被我们一代又一代人传诵，这些故事都是教育我们要讲文明、讲礼貌的。可是到了现在，我们的科技飞速发展，讲文明、讲礼貌的人越来越少，我们应该学习做好人，学做文明人。

“When KongRong was four years old, he let the other to eat the pear” This story is well known, there are many such stories told by our generation by generation, these stories teach us to be civilized and polite.  But now, fewer and fewer people are civilized and polite. We should learn to be a good person and learn to be civilized. 

文明是一种责任，是一种义不容辞的责任。看到教室、校园的垃圾，弯腰拾起；见到老师、同学需要帮助，尽力而为。在言谈举止中尽显文明之风，行文明之礼。相信这些我们都能做到，也就拉近了与文明的距离。

Civilization is a kind of responsibility.Seeing the classroom campus garbage, please bend down to pick up; Seeing teachers and students who need help, try our best to show your civilization in speech and behavior. If so, we can narrow the gap between the distance of civilization.

文明，从我做起，从点滴做起，让我们共享这块广阔的土地，去撑起一片蓝天。

Starting from me, little by little, let us hold up a piece of blue sky.
