像石榴籽一樣緊緊相擁

范少杰

“在衢州，我有了很多新的人生體驗，感受到了祖國豐厚的傳統(tǒng)文化?！毕愀弁瑢W陳曉嵐這樣說。

應衢州海外聯(lián)誼會和衢州二中的邀請，2017年8月25日，香港順德聯(lián)誼總會李兆基中學交流訪問團來到浙江衢州，開展了5天的訪問交流活動。8月27日晚，衢州二中與香港李兆基中學正式簽約，締結(jié)為友好學校。

學習：在交流中加深友誼

衢州水亭門街區(qū)，江山廿八都古鎮(zhèn)、清漾毛氏文化村……訪問團一行在參觀中感受到了衢州的風土人情。來訪的15名香港同學分頭住進衢州二中及衢州華茂高中的同學的家中，體驗生活。香港同學和住家同學一起參加升國旗儀式、進行辯論友誼賽、舉行籃球友誼賽、開展學生社團交流。香港同學對內(nèi)地學生的生活表露出了濃厚的興趣。

“你們的升學考是怎樣的？”“你平時要上哪些課程？”“你們有哪些社團？”“你有什么興趣愛好？”香港同學麥耀祖和接待他的住家同學徐博也一見如故。兩個同樣喜歡交流的男生，在交談中發(fā)現(xiàn)彼此興趣愛好相近，都喜歡打籃球、看電影，甚至喜歡玩同一款游戲。為了多點時間交流，麥耀祖放棄了徐博也一家為他安排的觀光計劃，選擇留在家里和徐博也聊天。

讓麥耀祖覺得獲益良多的不僅是了解了衢州的文化和風俗，更重要的是結(jié)識了一個好朋友。他希望以后能和徐博也通過網(wǎng)絡(luò)保持聯(lián)絡(luò)。

在交流中，衢州二中了解到李兆基中學將學生分為4個社團開展各項比賽，并以社團積分和比賽表現(xiàn)的方式給學生賦分，以培養(yǎng)學生的綜合能力，“感覺這樣的社團機制很有意思，有競爭，也很鍛煉人的能力！”

衢州二中送教科書給香港同學作為禮物，希望他們多了解內(nèi)地學生的課堂教學內(nèi)容，加深彼此的了解和文化認同。

“同氣連枝，浙港同心”“香港與內(nèi)地的師生要像石榴籽一樣緊緊相擁”……在簽約成為友好學校當天，兩校師生共同在衢州二中校園種下了一棵石榴樹作為友誼樹。香港李兆基中學校長鄧卓莊特地帶來了香港的泥土和水，把它們?nèi)鲈诹擞颜x樹的根上。在香江、衢江兩江水土相互交融之時，兩地青年寫下心愿卡，放入“時間膠囊”……美好的畫面被定格，等待約定的未來。

鄧校長表示，“都說‘一方水土養(yǎng)一方人，我希望兩方水土能培育出博采眾長的人才，希望兩校能夠加強交流，增加香港學生對祖國文化的了解和認識，增強對祖國的認同感。”

心愿：共同傳承傳統(tǒng)文化

訪問活動中，兩校學生開展了一場辯論賽，辯題為“西方文化傳入，對中國傳統(tǒng)文化的發(fā)展弊大于利，還是利大于弊？”

為了這場辯論賽，香港同學葉祉庭查閱了大量資料，還早早地和衢州同學吳欣睿探討起內(nèi)地和香港的辯論賽賽制的不同。

“感覺內(nèi)地的學生提問很犀利，很厲害呢！”葉祉庭有點遺憾地說，“我們在香港辯論時都用粵語，所以有點不適應，沒有完全發(fā)揮好。

負責點評的衢州二中老師汪嘯波說，兩地孩子在辯論中提到的一些理念，顯示了他們對于傳統(tǒng)文化和西方文化都有較為深入的學習。

汪老師在暑期剛參加了香港中文大學舉辦的中華傳統(tǒng)文化研修班，親身感受到在較早、較直接受到西方文化影響的香港，教育同行們?yōu)榱藞允刂袊鴤鹘y(tǒng)文化付出的艱辛努力：他們把中國傳統(tǒng)文化細分為24個專題，并堅持用1港元1節(jié)課的公益課方式授課傳播。

這讓汪老師非常感佩，“相通的文化基因把香港和內(nèi)地緊緊相連，希望結(jié)為友好學校后，兩校學生能有更多機會一起學習傳統(tǒng)文化，增加文化認同?！?/p>

衢州二中為來訪的香港師生安排了拜謁孔氏南宗家廟、學習太極拳的活動。參與本次接待的15個住家家庭也各為香港同學安排了練習書法、走訪中國儒學館、衢州博物館等有中國傳統(tǒng)文化內(nèi)涵的體驗。

香港同學田佩柔在衢州同學趙千影的陪同下，來到浙江省非物質(zhì)文化遺產(chǎn)生產(chǎn)性保護基地，體驗衢州白瓷制作。在浙江省工藝美術(shù)大師徐文奎的指導下，田佩柔自己動手拉坯做成了一個碗，這讓她非常有成就感。由于燒制完成約需十天時間，趙千影表示一定將成品寄往香港，給田佩柔作永遠的紀念。

友誼、學習、傳承、交流，這些詞語在短短幾天時間內(nèi)一再被兩地師生和參與接待的家庭所提起。8月29日下午，滿載衢州二中師生的情誼和對衢州的美好記憶，香港李兆基中學交流訪問團踏上歸程。

Schools in Quzhou and Hong Kong Join Hands in Exchange Programs

By Fan Shaojie

At the invitation of Quzhou Overseas Friendship Society and Quzhou Number 2 Middle School， a delegation of Lee Shau-Kee Middle School of Hong Kong arrived in Quzhou in southwestern Zhejiang on August 25， 2017 for a five-day visit of exchanges and cooperation. On the evening of August 27， an agreement of operating as sister schools was signed between Quzhou Number 2 Middle School and Lee Shau-Kee Middle School in Hong Kong.endprint

The group from Hong Kong had 15 students. For them， the visit to Quzhou was an opportunity to learn about Quzhou. They stayed at homes of students of Quzhou Number 2 Middle School and Huamao High School. They visited tourist attractions and historical sites around Quzhou including Confucius Temple and Residence， the Confucius School， and Quzhou Museum. With their fellow students in Xuzhou， they also attended a flag-raising ceremony， held a debate competition， played a basketball match， and compared notes on student organizations.

Students from Hong Kong were curious about the school life on the mainland. The events broadened their perspectives on things that interested them. In the debate competition， students from two schools exchanged their opinions on the positive and negative impacts of the western culture on Chinese culture. Ye Zhiting from Lee Shau-Kee Middle School made thorough preparations and discussed with Wu Yinrui of the Quzhou Number 2 Middle School about the differences of the debate systems in both Hong Kong and the mainland. He thought the HK team underperformed at the debate. “The students from the mainland raised sharp questions. They are good，“ regretted Ye. “In Hong Kong we debate in Cantonese. Thats why we were not able to do our best here.”

Wang Xiaobo， a teacher of Quzhou Number 2 Middle School who served as a commentator at the debate， remarked that the way the students from the two schools debated indicated that they had relatively adequate knowledge of the traditional Chinese culture and the western culture.

Wang had just finished attending an advanced summer course in traditional Chinese culture on at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. He was deeply impressed by what his colleagues did in Hong Kong in disseminating Chinese culture. They offered 24 lectures on Chinese tradition and symbolically charged only 1 Hong Kong dollar for each lecture. “The mainland and Hong Kong are culturally interwoven，” pointed out Wang. “Hopefully， students of the two schools can have better opportunities to learn more about Chinese culture and further promote cultural identification after the two schools became sister schools.”

On August 27， the students and teachers of the two schools planted a pomegranate tree on the campus to mark the signing of the agreement for sister schools. The schoolmaster of Lee Shau-Kee Middle School of Hong Kong put the soil and the water that he had brought over from Hong Kong to the root part of the tree. “I hope the two schools can promote exchanges and students at our school can learn more about the culture of the motherland and identify intimately with the motherland，” said the schoolmaster.

The students and teachers from Lee Shau-Kee Middle School of Hong Kong left for Hong Kong on the afternoon of August 29， carrying back the memory about Quzhou and expectations for more exchange programs in future.endprint
