附演讲稿：              

The speech was as follows

你可知Macau不是我真姓，

我离开你太久了，母亲，

但是他们掳去的是我的肉体，

你依然保管我内心的灵魂……

You know 'Macau' is not my real name?

I have been away from you too long, Motherland!

But what they took away was nothing but my body,

my heart remains with you.

同学们，这首歌你们熟悉吗？是的，这是一首在中国脍炙人口的歌曲——《七子之歌-澳门》。歌词作者是中国著名爱国诗人闻一多。1925年，面对山河破碎的旧中国，诗人表达了对国家统一、民族团圆的真挚渴望。

Students are you familiar with this song? 'Songs of the seven sons' was a group of seven patriotic poems written by Wen Yiduo, a prominent Chinese poet and scholar in 1925 to express his wish for national re-union.

1999年12月20日零时，中葡两国政府在澳门文化中心举行政权交接仪式，中国政府对澳门恢复行使主权，澳门历尽磨难之后回到了母亲的怀抱，成为中华人民共和国的一个特别行政区，这是让我们每个中国人都为之自豪的。

At 12am, 20th December 1999. The Chinese government and the Portuguese government held the ceremony of sovereignty handover at Macau Culture Centre. Macau was again under the rule of China after so long as an SAR. This was something we were proud of.

从明朝万历年间的租地，到1840年第一次鸦片战争后的强占及暂借，跟香港一样，澳门过去的几个世纪是中华民族近代积贫积弱的结果，而1999年12月20日的回归，象征着中华民族的重新崛起。如今，游子早已归家，她正安详地躺在祖国母亲的怀抱中，更加神采奕奕。

Just like Hong Kong, Macau was taken away from China in the past, as a sign of weaknesses of China in the past few centuries. The return of Macau on 20th December 1999, signified the rise of Chinese nation again. As its return, Macau has been more developed.

矗立在晨曦中，站在操场上，注视着徐徐升起的国旗，唱响激昂的国歌。这是中华民族共同托起的黎明，而澳门回归的钟声将永远回荡在每个人心头，激励我们前行。

Facing our national flag and singing our national anthem. This is the dawn that Chinese nation shares, and the return of Macau will motivate us to work hard.

澳门的顺利回归是我国综合国力和国际地位日益提高的结果。同时，今年是中国人民志愿军抗美援朝70周年，我们应该铭记抗美援朝战争的艰辛历程和伟大胜利，传承红色基因，延续红色血脉，做担当民族复兴大任的时代新人。

The return of Macau is the result of our nation power and international status. This year is also the 70th anniversary of PLA's support in Korean War. We shall remember the hardship and victory to pass on the red army spirits and take responsibility of rejuvenating our nation.

VBS的未来少年们，让我们以前进的姿态奋斗出更美好的未来，歌唱祖国，祝福澳门！

VBS students, let's work hard to create our future, praise our motherland and send regards to Macau.
