万双网讯   秋意渐浓，时光沉淀。四季轮回间，万物皆有灵且美。如果说自然是最大的课堂，那么动物便是其中最温柔的老师。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11月3日，万科双语学校第77期E-talk活动在学校剧场举行，近百名师生现场聆听了演讲。

Autumn is deepening, and the year is quietly settling down. As the seasons turn, every living thing is imbued with spirit and beauty. If nature is the greatest classroom of all, then animals are the gentlest teachers. 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, Vanke Bilingual School held the 77th E-talk in the school theater on November 3rd, 2026, before an audience of nearly 100 teachers and students.

本次E-talk活动以“Animals”为主题，来自四至六年级的8名同学依次登台，用流利的英文讲述他们与动物之间的温暖故事。8位演讲者视角各异，有的聚焦于浩瀚海洋中的庞然大物，有的则细腻讲述了身边毛茸茸的可爱伴侣。他们用生动的语言和丰富的肢体表达，带领现场师生踏上了一场充满爱与责任的奇妙之旅。本次活动的评委由外教老师Timothy和Eric担任，师生们在相互倾听与真诚对话中，共同开启了一场关于生命与成长的双语对话。

This edition of E-talk was themed “Animals.” Eight students from Grades 4 to 6 took to the stage one after another, telling warm stories of their bonds with animals in fluent English. Their perspectives varied: some focused on the giants of the vast ocean, while others offered tender portraits of the furry companions at their side. With vivid words and expressive gestures, they took the audience on remarkable journeys of love and responsibility. International teachers Timothy and Eric served as judges, and through mutual listening and honest dialogue, teachers and students opened a bilingual conversation about life and growth.

来自6G班的曾钰芸（Hannah）同学以“The Gentle Giant of the Sea”为题，将目光投向了海洋巨兽——蓝鲸。她借助令人震撼的图片，向大家展示了蓝鲸庞大的身躯与温柔的内心。她分享道，蓝鲸虽然体型巨大，却以微小的磷虾为食，这让她获得两点深刻的启示：“Big Lives Need Small Lives”以及“Ordinary People Also Matter”。最后，她呼吁大家保护海洋，尊重每一个生命，无论大小。

Hannah Zeng from Class 6G turned her attention to the blue whale, a giant of the sea, in a talk titled “The Gentle Giant of the Sea.” With striking imagery, she showed the audience both the whale's enormous bulk and its gentle heart. She shared that although the blue whale is immense, it feeds on tiny krill — a fact that gave her two insights: “Big Lives Need Small Lives” and “Ordinary People Also Matter.” In closing, she called on everyone to protect the ocean and respect every living creature, great or small.

5I班的邢梓棽（Apple）同学带来了题为“My Pets”的分享，生动地介绍了她家的一狗一龟——黑黑和饭团。她用幽默的语言讲述了黑黑精力充沛、贪吃奔跑的趣事，还调侃道：“虽然我的英文名是Apple，但黑黑吃的是苹果，可不是我哦！”随后，她描绘了乌龟饭团在鱼缸里游泳、吃蔬菜的可爱模样，还爆料饭团曾吃掉鱼缸里的小鱼。一狗一龟，双倍欢乐，她的演讲充满了童趣与欢乐。

Apple Xing from Class 5I gave a talk titled “My Pets,” introducing her dog and her turtle, Heihei and Fantuan. With humor, she described Heihei's boundless energy, greedy appetite, and frantic dashes for food, and joked: “My English name is Apple, but it's apples that Heihei eats — not me!” She then painted a charming picture of Fantuan swimming in the tank and nibbling on vegetables, and let slip that Fantuan had once eaten the little fish living there. One dog and one turtle, but twice the joy — her talk brimmed with childlike delight.

4I班的王嘉琪（Sia）同学以“My Pet Friend”为题，讲述了小狗“Xingxing”的故事。在她的眼中，这只小狗有着蓬松的毛发和明亮的大眼睛，性格十分温顺。它不仅懂得坐下、握手和乞食等小技能，还会在不想回家时耍点小脾气。她动情地说：“It shares my tears and joys. We are best friends forever!”这段跨越言语的深厚羁绊，正是人与宠物之间最纯粹、最动人的情感写照。

Sia Wang from Class 4I gave a talk titled “My Pet Friend,” in which she told the story of her dog, Xingxing. In Sia’s eyes, Xingxing has a fluffy coat, big bright eyes, and a very gentle nature. Not only can the little dog do a few simple tricks—sitting, shaking hands, and begging for food—but it also sulks a little when it doesn’t want to go home. “It shares my tears and joys. We are best friends forever!” she said with emotion. This profound bond, one that transcends words, is the purest and most moving expression of the connection between people and their pets.

4D班的黄若晞（Aurora）同学以“My Friend, Frosting!”为题，讲述了她与宠物兔Frosting的故事。她坦言，起初以为Frosting只是个毛茸茸的可爱玩具，但当她试图去抚摸时却被咬了一口。她发现Frosting其实有着自己的情绪，是一只容易害羞的小兔子。当朋友来家里时，它会紧张地躲在床下一整个上午。她由此感悟道：“All living things have different moods. We should not judge anything or anyone just by looks.”这份被“咬”出来的理解，让她学会了用更包容的心去尊重每一个生灵的独特个性。

Aurora Huang from Class 4D told the story of her pet rabbit in a talk titled “My Friend, Frosting!” She admitted that at first she took Frosting for nothing more than a fluffy, adorable toy — until she reached out to stroke it and was bitten. She discovered that Frosting had moods of its own: a shy little rabbit that, when her friends came to visit, would hide nervously under the bed all morning. From this she came to a realization: “All living things have different moods. We should not judge anything or anyone just by looks.” That hard-won understanding taught her to embrace each creature's individuality with a more open heart.

5E班的洪梦婷（Icey）同学以“My Favorite Animal”为题，带领大家走进了猫的世界。她总结道，猫有着柔软的毛发、明亮的眼睛和尖尖的耳朵，它们灵活、安静，擅长跳跃和攀爬。更令她感动的是，猫咪聪明且能感知主人的情绪——她伤心时，猫咪会陪伴在旁；她开心时，猫咪会陪她玩耍。她呼吁大家珍惜这些带来欢乐与温暖的小生命，并现场播放了自家猫咪的可爱视频，萌化了在场的师生。

Icey Hong from Class 5E led the audience into the world of cats in a talk titled “My Favorite Animal.” Cats, she observed, have soft fur, bright eyes and pointed ears; they are agile and quiet, and skilled at jumping and climbing. What touched her most was how clever they are — how they sense their owner's mood, staying close when she is sad and joining in her play when she is happy. She urged everyone to cherish these small lives that bring joy and warmth, and she showed a video of her own cat that utterly charmed everyone in the theater.

4G班的陈克岐（Keqi）同学带来了“My Cute Friend, Xiaoxiao”的演讲，深情介绍了他的小狗小小。他向大家展示了小小一身柔软棕色卷毛的可爱模样，并分享了小小最爱吃饭和玩游戏。他讲述了一次捉迷藏的趣事，小小实在太擅长躲藏，他们花了整整30秒才找到它。Keqi说，小小给他的家庭带来了无尽的幸福，每次和它在一起，他都感到无比温暖。

Keqi Chen from Class 4G spoke on his deep affection about his little dog in a talk titled “My Cute Friend, Xiaoxiao.” He showed everyone Xiaoxiao's soft brown curls and shared that nothing delights the little one more than eating and playing games. He told a hide-and-seek story too: Xiaoxiao was such a skilled hider that it took a full 30 seconds to find it. Xiaoxiao, Keqi said, has brought his family endless happiness, and every moment together feels wonderfully warm.

5C班的周善瑶（Mia）同学以“My Pet”为题，用丰富的想象力开场：“我的狗长什么样？像铅笔？像纸箱？还是像吐司面包？”她的答案是一个“大毛球”！她描述了狗狗奶茶棕色的毛发、大大的眼睛和柔软的爪子，并分享了她们之间的温馨故事：她弹钢琴时，奶茶安静地坐在旁边倾听；她带奶茶去公园奔跑时，那个下午无比美妙。她最后深情地说，奶茶不仅仅是宠物，更是她甜蜜的朋友，让每一天都闪闪发光。

Mia Zhou from Class 5C opened her talk “My Pet” with a flight of imagination: “What does my dog look like? Like a pencil? Like a cardboard box? Or like a slice of toast?” Her answer: “A big ball of fluff!” She described Milk Tea's brown fur, big eyes and soft paws, and shared a warm story of the two of them: when she plays the piano, Milk Tea sits quietly beside her, listening; when she takes Milk Tea running in the park, the afternoon turns simply wonderful. Milk Tea, she said in closing, is more than a pet —it is a sweet friend who makes every day shine.

6V班的刘小萱（Emma）同学以“The Silent Family Teacher”为题，分享了她与猫的故事。起初，她以为养猫是安静的陪伴，却没想到橡皮擦会在沙发下，作业本会变成猫抓板。然而，在她英语考试失利、心情灰暗的那天，猫咪像往常一样在门口迎接她。她顿悟：在这个世界上，只有它不在乎我的分数是10分还是100分。她从猫咪身上学到了情绪稳定、保持好奇心，以及最重要的——爱与责任。

Emma Liu from Class 6V shared the story of life with her cat in a talk titled “The Silent Family Teacher.” At first she thought a cat would mean quiet companionship; she never imagined that erasers would vanish beneath the sofa and exercise books would become scratching posts. Yet on the day she did poorly on an English test and came home in low spirits, the cat was waiting at the door, just as always. Then it struck her: here was the one creature in the world who did not care whether her score was 10 or 100. From her cat she learned emotional steadiness and curiosity — and, above all, love and responsibility.

活动尾声，所有演讲者上台领取了纪念证书并合影留念。8位同学从不同视角为本次“Animals”主题注入了独特而鲜活的生命力——有人用幽默解读宠物的小怪癖，有人从被宠物抓咬的经历中学会了尊重差异，有人在无声的陪伴中获得了跨越挫折的力量。他们用真挚的讲述证明：这些陪伴我们的生灵，不仅是生活中的玩伴，更是教会我们爱、责任与包容的“无声导师”。本期E-talk在热烈的掌声中圆满落幕，而属于少年们与动物和谐共处的美好故事，仍在温馨的时光里继续上演。

As the event drew to a close, all of the speakers came on stage to receive commemorative certificates and pose for a group photo. From eight different angles, the students breathed vivid life into the “Animals” theme — one found humor in a pet's little quirks, one learned to respect difference through scratches and bites, and one drew the strength to rise above setbacks from silent companionship. Their heartfelt stories made one thing clear: the creatures who share our lives are not just playmates but “silent teachers” of love, responsibility and acceptance. This edition of E-talk ended with warm applause, and the story of these students living in harmony with animals will continue to unfold in the gentle warmth of everyday life.

万科双语学校E-talk活动每周举行一次，学生自主报名参与，中文、英文均可，老师将相同或相似主题的演讲者安排在同一期演讲，主旨是让学生做到能说、会说、敢说，善思、善辩、善究。

The E-talk activity of Vanke Bilingual School is held once a week. Students can sign up to participate on their own. Both Chinese and English are accepted. The teacher arranges speakers with the same or similar topics to give speeches in the same period. The purpose is to enable students to be able to speak freely, confidently and bravely; to be good at thinking, debating, and doing research.

E-talk的舞台是开放的，我们欢迎每一位VBS未来少年来到这里，站在聚光灯下，向世界展示自己的独特魅力；我们鼓励孩子们挑战自我，突破困境；我们相信，每一个孩子都有无限的潜力，只要他们有勇气站上舞台，就有可能成为真正的演讲者。

The stage of E-talk is open. We welcome every future teenager of VBS to come here, stand in the spotlight, and show their unique charm to the world; we encourage children to challenge themselves and break through difficulties; we believe that every child has unlimited potential. As long as they have the courage to stand on the stage, they may become real speakers.

让我们一起期待，在E-talk的舞台上，VBS未来少年们将如何用他们的声音，引领我们走进他们的世界，感受他们的热情与活力。

Let us look forward to how the future teenagers of VBS will use their voices to lead us into their world and feel their enthusiasm and vitality on the E-talk stage.
