万双网讯 春生夏长，秋收冬藏。四季是最古老的钟表，也是最温柔的老师——它以风物为纸、以光阴为笔，在每一次萌芽、每一场花开里，写下关于生长的答案。为提高学生演讲与表达的综合能力，提升学生的中英文综合素养，让孩子站在舞台中央，2026年10月30日，万科双语学校第76期E-talk活动在学校剧场举行，近百名师生现场聆听了演讲。

Spring brings new life, summer nurtures growth, autumn offers a bountiful harvest, and winter invites quiet reflection. The four seasons are nature's oldest clock and our gentlest teacher. Using the changing scenery and the passage of time as paper and ink, they revealed the meaning of growth in every budding leaf and blooming flower. To develop students' public speaking and communication skills, enhance their proficiency in both Chinese and English, and provide opportunities for them to take center stage, Shenzhen Vanke Bilingual School held its 76th E-talk event in the school theatre on October 30th, 2026. Nearly 100 teachers and students attended the event.

本次E-talk活动以“四时风物 伴我成长”为主题，7C班陈雅琳（Joya）和7G班谭睿熙（Gristan）同学担任主持人，来自七年级的8名同学依次登台，分别用汉语或英语讲述四季的故事——有人在春风里读懂坚持，有人在秋阳下学会放手，有人于人间烟火中捕捉春天悄然的足迹。本次活动的评委由William老师以及现场同学担任，大家既是聆听者，也是点评者，在相互倾听与真诚对话中，共赴一场与四季、与成长的双语对话。

Themed "Growing with the Seasons", this E-talk event was hosted by Joya Chen from Class 7C and Gristan Tan from Class 7G. Eight Grade 7 students took to the stage to share their stories of the four seasons in either Chinese or English. Some discovered the value of perseverance in the spring breeze, others learned the art of letting go beneath the autumn sunshine, while still others captured the subtle arrival of spring in the warmth of everyday life. The judging panel consisted of William and students in the audience. As both listeners and reviewers, everyone participated in a meaningful bilingual dialogue about the seasons and personal growth through attentive listening and sincere exchanges.

7G班韩钰霖（Anne）同学以“Seasons”为题，带来了一场关于四季与行动的英文演讲。“Actions speak louder than words”——行胜于言，是她写在海报上的座右铭。她以真诚质朴的语言分享感悟：四季从不空谈，只是默默更替、默默生长，而人也应当像季节一样，用踏实的行动去兑现心中的想法。言辞虽短，却掷地有声。

Anne Han from Class 7G delivered an English speech entitled "Seasons", exploring the relationship between the changing seasons and the importance of taking action. "Actions speak louder than words" was the motto displayed on her poster. Through sincere and straightforward words, she shared her reflections: the seasons never make empty promises; instead, they quietly change and nurture life. Likewise, we should turn our ideas into reality through practical actions. Her speech was brief yet powerful, leaving a lasting impression on the audience.

7I班张芷兰（Alinda）同学以“The Four Seasons”为题展开英文演讲。她像一位小小的季节导游，逐一介绍春夏秋冬的时间、物候与天气：春天的树、花与鸟，夏天的沙滩与西瓜，秋天的落叶与收获，冬天的白雪与寒风。“Hope is the thing with feathers / that perches in the soul”——她借狄金森的诗句告诉大家：希望如飞鸟，栖居于每个人心间，无论身处哪个季节，都要怀抱希望向前走。演讲最后，她还热情地与现场同学互动：“What's your favourite season?”引来全场热烈回应。

Alinda Zhang from Class 7I presented an English speech entitled "The Four Seasons". Like a seasonal guide, she introduced the timing, natural features, and weather of each season: trees, flowers, and birds in spring; beaches and watermelons in summer; falling leaves and harvests in autumn; and snow and chilly winds in winter. Quoting Emily Dickinson's poem, "Hope is the thing with feathers / That perches in the soul", she reminded everyone that hope, like a bird, lives within each of us. Whichever season of life we find ourselves in, we should always move forward with hope. At the end of her speech, she enthusiastically engaged the audience by asking, "What's your favorite season?" Her question was met with lively responses from students sitting in the theatre.

7E班张芸萱（Iris）同学以“Autumn Is a Gentle Teacher”为题，把秋天比作一位温柔的老师。她说，秋天从不喧哗，总是在不经意间悄然来临——风变凉了，叶染黄了，桂花的甜香漫满空气，落叶像夏天寄来的小信笺。她从中秋的团圆讲起，“但愿人长久，千里共婵娟”，一轮明月寄托着思念与感恩；又从田野的丰收谈到新学期的目标：“Leaves do not fall all at once. Good things also take time.”——好事需要时间，学习需要耐心。她总结了秋天教给我们的三节课：改变可以很美，耕耘终有收获，每一次结束都孕育着新的开始。飘落的叶子不是告别，而是一份小小的承诺——冬天终将过去，春天定会再来。

Iris Zhang from Class 7E delivered a speech entitled "Autumn Is a Gentle Teacher", portraying autumn as a kind and gentle guide. She described how autumn arrives quietly, almost unnoticed: the breeze grows cooler, the leaves turn golden, the sweet fragrance of osmanthus fills the air, and the fallen leaves resemble little letters sent from summer. Beginning with the family reunions of the Mid-Autumn Festival, she quoted the classical Chinese verse, "May we all be blessed with longevity, though miles apart, we share the same moon", expressing feelings of love, gratitude, and longing beneath the full moon. She then connected the autumn harvest with the goals of a new school term: "Leaves do not fall all at once. Good things also take time." Just as good things take time, learning requires patience. She summarized the three lessons that autumn teaches us: change can be beautiful, hard work eventually bears fruit, and every ending holds the promise of a new beginning. Falling leaves are not simply a farewell, but a gentle promise that winter will eventually pass and spring will return.

7C班王晨曦（Cathy）同学的英文演讲以“Seasons”为题。“When winter says goodbye, spring comes with a warm smile.”她描绘冰雪消融、百花绽放、黄草返青的早春图景：桃树穿上粉色的裙子，阳光愈发温暖，人们脱下冬装，在柔风里感受季节的更替。她讲道，春天最美丽的信使是花，而春天最深的寓意是希望——农民播下种子等待收获，我们每个人也种下自己的目标，静待它生长。她引用雪莱的诗句作结：“If winter comes, can spring be far behind?”她爱春天，不仅因为它美丽，更因为它展现着生命向上生长的力量。

Cathy Wang from Class 7C delivered an English speech entitled "Seasons". Beginning with the line, "When winter says goodbye, spring comes with a warm smile", she painted a vivid picture of early spring, when snow and ice melt, flowers burst into bloom, and withered grass turns green again. Peach trees put on their pink dresses, the sunshine grows warmer, and people take off their winter coats to welcome the gentle breeze and changing season. She explained that flowers are spring's most beautiful messengers, with hope its deepest meaning. Just as farmers sow seeds and patiently await the harvest, each of us plants our own goals and gives them time to grow. She concluded with Percy Bysshe Shelley's famous line, "If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind?" She loves spring not only for its beauty but also for the strength and vitality it represents.

7I班赖禹高（Hugo）同学以《不负春日 不负韶华》为题，奏响了“春之勃发”的乐章。他从和风拂面、草木抽芽、繁花渐次绽放、冰河悄然消融讲起，勾勒万物苏醒的春日图景；继而点明“一年之计在于春”——春日耕耘，方有秋日收获，春光容不得懈怠。他进一步说，春天里藏着坚持与韧性：新芽，是从寒冬里熬出来的。他引用张桂梅校长的话——“你们现在也正是在经历生命的春天，那是目光纯净、未来可期的年纪”，呼吁同学们珍惜属于少年的春天。“积跬步至千里，积小流成江海，厚积薄发”，他在演讲最后寄语大家：以春光、努力与成长，换来属于自己的硕果。

Hugo Lai from Class 7I delivered a Chinese speech entitled "Cherish the Spring and Make the Most of Youth", celebrating the vitality and energy of spring. He began by describing gentle breezes, budding plants, blossoming flowers, and melting ice, creating a vivid picture of nature awakening. He then highlighted the Chinese saying, "A year's plan begins in spring", emphasizing that only through hard work in spring can we enjoy the harvest in autumn. The precious days of spring should never be wasted. He went on to explain that spring embodies perseverance and resilience: every new shoot has survived the hardships of winter. Quoting Principal Zhang Guimei, he reminded his fellow students that they are now experiencing the springtime of their lives, an age of bright eyes and promising futures. He encouraged everyone to cherish these precious years of youth. Drawing on the wisdom that a journey of a thousand miles begins with small steps and that great rivers are formed by countless little streams, he concluded by urging students to accumulate knowledge, work steadily, and grow patiently, so that their efforts today will eventually bear fruit.

7G班刘思靖（Willow）同学以《四季美景——向光生长》为题展开演讲。“生如夏花之绚烂”，她以这句诗开篇，追问听众：提到春天，你会想到什么？她的答案是——坚持，是明知有风雨，依然选择向上。她把初一比作人生的早春：成长从来都不轻松，看似平淡，实则积累。破土、扎根、拔节、蓄势，每一步向光的生长都发生在不被看见的日子里。她在演讲结尾祝愿同学们：不负春光，不负韶华。

Willow Liu from Class 7G delivered a speech entitled "The Beauty of the Four Seasons — Growing Towards the Light". Opening with the poetic line, "Let life be beautiful like summer flowers", she asked the audience what came to mind when they thought of spring. Her answer was perseverance: the courage to keep growing upwards despite the storms ahead. She compared the first year of junior secondary school to the early spring of life. Growth is never easy; what appears ordinary on the surface often involves quiet but meaningful progress. Breaking through the soil, taking root, growing taller, and gathering strength — every step towards the light takes place through countless unseen efforts. She ended her speech by encouraging her fellow students to make the most of spring and cherish their youth.

7E班王睿新（Ricky）同学以《春，悄然而至》为题，讲述“春者，天之和也”的东方意境。他说，春早已到来，只是我们未曾察觉——它藏在一阵裹着幽香的风里，藏在纷纷扬扬如鹅毛大雪般的柳絮里，藏在钻出枝头的一点新绿里。“它不是不热烈，只是不张扬。”从萝卜丝拌韭菜的咬春，到“春眠不觉晓”的处处啼鸟，从腊月里的热闹集市，再到除夕夜通明的灯火与噼啪的炮声，他细数春天在人间烟火里露面的每一个瞬间。从二月二龙抬头，再到清明时春把大地交还给夏——春天散尽最后一缕温柔，呵护着这一季萌发的万物。他在结尾动情地说：愿我们都像春天一样，保持热爱，奔赴山海。

Ricky Wang from Class 7E delivered a Chinese speech entitled "Spring Arrives Quietly", exploring the traditional Chinese idea that spring represents harmony between heaven and nature. He suggested that spring may have already arrived without us noticing. It hides in a fragrant breeze, in willow catkins drifting through the air like large snowflakes, and in the first tender green shoots emerging on branches. "It is not that spring lacks passion; it simply does not seek attention." From the traditional custom of "biting the spring" by enjoying seasonal dishes such as shredded radish mixed with Chinese chives, to the birdsong celebrated in the classical poem "Spring Morning", he traced the arrival of spring through familiar scenes of everyday life. He also recalled bustling markets in the twelfth lunar month, brightly lit homes on Chinese New Year's Eve, and the crackling sounds of firecrackers. From the Longtaitou Festival on the second day of the second lunar month to the Qingming Festival, when spring gradually gives way to summer, he described how the season offers its tenderness to nurture all of the life it has awakened. He concluded with a heartfelt wish: may we all be like spring, holding on to our passions and pursuing our dreams with courage.

7C班袁乐轩（Serena）同学以《春》为题，带来了一场声情并茂的中文朗诵，主题是“以小我之微光，筑集体之星河”。她以春风、春阳、春雨、春空四幅画卷徐徐铺展：春风是温柔的使者，唤醒沉睡的大地；春阳照亮每一个角落，梨花雪白、迎春金黄、桃花粉嫩；春雨细密无声，滋养泥土与嫩芽，雨后的空气满是清甜；春空干净清澈，万物欣欣向荣。她说，春天代表新生、希望与开始，一年之计在于春，我们更应珍惜大好春光，心怀热爱、积极向上。“我爱朱自清笔下那温柔明媚的春天，我更爱在春光里奋力成长的我们”——清亮的声音落下，剧场里响起热烈的掌声。

Serena Yuan from Class 7C presented an expressive Chinese recitation entitled "Spring", centered on the theme "Let Each Small Light Contribute to a Galaxy of Collective Brilliance". Through four vivid scenes — the spring breeze, spring sunshine, spring rain, and spring sky — she gradually unfolded the beauty of the season. The spring breeze is a gentle messenger that awakens the sleeping earth; the warm sunshine illuminates every corner, revealing snow-white pear blossoms, golden winter jasmine, and delicate pink peach blossoms. The soft, silent spring rain nourishes the soil and tender shoots, leaving the air fresh and sweet, while the clear spring sky stretches above a world full of life and vitality. She explained that spring symbolizes new life, hope, and fresh beginnings. As the saying goes, "A year's plan begins in spring", so we should cherish this wonderful season, pursue our passions, and maintain a positive attitude towards life. "I love the gentle, radiant spring described by Zhu Ziqing, but even more, I love the way we strive to grow in the spring sunshine." As her clear voice faded, warm applause filled the theatre.

活动尾声，所有演讲者上台领取纪念证书并合影留念。八位演讲者从四季的不同维度，为“四时风物 伴我成长”注入了丰沛而独特的注解——有人以行胜于言的信念诠释成长，有人借秋天的温柔领悟耐心与放手，有人在春之勃发中读懂坚持与韧性，有人于人间烟火里捕捉春天悄然的足迹。他们用真诚的分享证明：四季不只是自然的轮回，更是每一位少年成长的镜子——春生夏长，秋收冬藏，万物有时，成长亦有时。第76期E-talk在掌声与感动中圆满落幕，而属于少年们的四季故事，仍在时光里继续书写。

At the end of the event, all of the speakers returned to the stage to receive commemorative certificates and take a group photograph. Through their unique perspectives on the four seasons, the eight speakers brought rich and meaningful interpretations to the theme "Growing with the Seasons". Some explored personal growth through the belief that actions speak louder than words; others discovered patience and the importance of letting go with autumn's gentle lessons. Some learned perseverance and resilience from the vitality of spring, while others found signs of spring's quiet arrival in the warmth of everyday life. Their heartfelt speeches reminded us that the four seasons are more than just nature's endless cycle; they are also a reflection of every young person's journey of growth. Spring brings new life, summer nurtures growth, autumn offers a harvest, and winter allows nature to rest. Everything has its season, and growth unfolds in its own time. The 76th E-talk event concluded successfully amidst warm applause and touching moments, but the seasonal stories of these young speakers will continue to unfold as time goes by.
