Articles that record children's growth: May you go forward firmly and come back from afar.

It happened to be your 18 birthday, and you received your favorite admission notice from Peking University as promised. The red cover of the notice reflects your youthful smile. I quietly captured that moment, and then scanned it into your photo album with your bar mitzvah photo. The past is like yesterday, frame by frame.

Eighteen years ago in the summer, the baby's clear cry opened the relationship between you and my mother. I especially remember that poor little guy. Nobel said? Life is a gem carved by nature for human beings. ? I advocate nature and think that growth is smooth and logical along the right path, and it will be cultivated step by step into a sunny and upright look in the future, so I named the little life: Xu, which symbolizes the rising of the East? The sun rises? .

This 18 year is not so much to accompany my son to grow up, but to accompany him through a childhood and adolescence. It seems that I lost my hours and found the fun of my childhood. Although there are hardships and hardships in the process of parenting, it is more about harvesting the joy and happiness of the companion's growth.

/kloc-for 0/8 years, as a mother, with fear of a new life, I bent down to lead my children, accompanied them to grow up, explored all the way, sang all the way, held them in one hand and put them in the other, and sent them all the way to Peking University.

First, villain: the seeds of civilization and wisdom have been sown long ago.

? Your child is not your child. Life longs for children. They came through you, but they don't belong to you? A new life, so small, but you are an independent individual. ? The beginning of life is naturally good? For you, I am not harsh, demanding and irreplaceable!

? Go to the park or amusement park this week. ? Which park to go to? The little guy then rides to the front of the map and finds the green area. Lujiazui Greenland. Ok ~! ? I give you an encouragement, a long and pleasant reply. Son's childhood? All right! ? This is the highest word I use. Encouragement and praise complement each other. When you are young, you should be confident in encouragement and try in confidence. Try to appreciate fun, and fun has spawned a lot?

Give personal life freedom and respect, even if you are? Little people? . Later, after studying, you fell in love with science and participated in the Olympic Games. This is your personal choice. Besides, you said you couldn't learn the piano, and I said I could. I think I will accept it as long as there is a reasonable explanation. Your reason is that you need to strengthen music theory, and time was not allowed at that time. Later, you said that the timing was just right, and you hit the keys and immersed yourself in the sound of the piano?

I know you know yourself, what you want, when you want it, and how to achieve it. Just like you choose Peking University Yuanpei, your reason is that you take part in the double competition of mathematics and physics, and the foundation of each subject is not bad. Manage the country and make the world safe. ? You said that the best you will be all-inclusive, comprehensive and comprehensive, and I readily agree.

Confucius said:? Virtue is not alone, there must be neighbors. ? Encouragement and approval are based on trust, and I pay more attention to cultivating your habit of self-cultivation, kindness and concentration. In some manners and social morality, I usually teach by example, and some people say that your son's moral standard is too high. I especially remember to attend lectures in Shanghai Library as a member. Lunch was delayed that day, and someone gave you a piece of candy to listen to the lecture and put it in your mouth. What do you mean? No snacks? The brand waved and said thank you; Go to Shanghai Concert Hall for a concert. If you are late, just wait outside quietly until the intermission. You said that attending a concert is not only a concert, but also a courtesy. Also, it was the early summer of 2000, and I bought a picture book from you. As soon as I got home, you sat on a small stool, and it was a beautiful spring afternoon. You watched from page to page. I glance at it from time to time out of the corner of my eye, and see you smile and frown for a while, and look at it carefully and intently. About twenty minutes later, you finished reading a book before playing with the building blocks. I was relieved at that time. A two-year-old child, 20 minutes of concentration, tells you intuitively that I don't need to worry about your future study and work.

? Sneak into the night with the wind, moisten things silently. ? Accompanying growth is to combine informal education with enjoying the little things of children's growth. I especially remember you studying prenatal education with me, and we pointed out the colors, shapes and numbers hand in hand. I especially remember that you gradually found yourself more interested in logic games such as brain teasers and Sudoku, and went to the bookstore to buy such books and enjoy them. We argued about a riddle together, and when we came to an unexpected result, we were convulsed with joy? In Leisure and Entertainment, you had read nearly 2,000 books before entering primary school. I was surprised that I didn't teach you. Before entering school, you liked to play with pens. I found you drawing and writing. I think children should do the right things at the right age, as long as they are focused and serious, and there is no danger of falling behind, instead of pulling out the seedlings, so I tell you decisively that playing is better, and learning to write can start from primary school.

Before entering primary school, when you were still in kindergarten, you envied the pupils who went to school with their schoolbags on their backs. You are eager to go to school, so you bought stationery early to report. It was the only year that I accompanied you in your homework: I accompanied you to read the home-school contact book, listened to your childish voice when reading the text, and watched you write at your desk.

The adult world should also have its own pursuit, and accompanying children should not be the reason for parents to stagnate. Whether the homework is correct or not depends on the teacher. I just need to witness the child finish the homework. After the first grade, I found that you finished your homework carefully and found pleasure in your study. I have reached a gentleman's agreement with you since the second grade: no homework. I'm glad to leave my academic education at school and focus on three things: for my own personal development, for family building, and for your interest and habit formation.

I like reading books, and I prefer to go to the bookstore with my son. You told me that the third grade of primary school will be next semester. I don't want to learn olympiad. ? Why? Because what the teacher said is very simple, I'll see for myself. ?

From then on, a little boy appeared in Shanghai Book City, with a blue cover. You have moved back to one book after another and finished reading one. From elementary school to high school, you have been insisting on teaching yourself your favorite course of Olympic Mathematics.

As for grades, it's just a phased academic performance test. Because your grades exceed my expectations every time, exams are your happiest thing. Because there is no homework during the period, I can spend my time freely and read some books and periodicals I like.

Second, step by step: firm and brave.

At that time, you can choose to enroll in two primary schools. Considering that children should ensure adequate sleep and seek their opinions, we chose an ordinary school close to home. There is nothing wrong with a balanced education. Want to know where your talents and specialties are? On the basis of all-round development, your grades in logic, mathematics and physics in primary school were particularly good. When you graduated, you taught yourself the seventh grade Olympiad. Because of my excellent grades, I was admitted to the best junior high school in this area. Facing the famous students in junior high school, I feel pressure, so I encourage you: now everyone is on the same starting line, and your intelligence is not bad. As long as you work hard, don't worry. ? After half a semester, you really ranked in the top three.

I didn't graduate from junior high school. As the only principal, I directly promoted the quota to the attached middle school of Jiaotong University. You said I wouldn't attend unless I was in Hua Er, so the headmaster talked to me, and my parents and you held a family meeting for this. Admission is up to you. It is better to give up the risk. If the result is not satisfactory, your parents will support your choice as long as you don't regret it? . You said you believed that you could compete in the Olympics in mathematics, physics and chemistry, and you hoped to be admitted to the basic science class in Hua Er, because there are similar partners there, which are more suitable for you. That night, you told me that you had only one goal for further study-Peking University!

You were admitted to Hua Er as you wished, and you were also selected as a basic course as you wished.

In Kikeban, you and your friends are struggling to explore. ? Knowing what it is, honesty is right. ? Reasoning with words, disintegrating with numbers. ? Mathematical physics is not only your major, but also your interest. You deeply integrate the spirit of seeking knowledge and learning into scientific learning and enjoy it. Have you won the second prize at the provincial level and the first prize at the senior high school in the National Middle School Mathematics League? Pan-Pearl Cup, the first prize in the comprehensive group of physics competition in Grade Two, and the second prize in physics at the provincial level. Senior three was selected for the Shanghai Physics Competition Team, and CPHO won the second prize. The award is really a thing apart. The self-study and thinking ability, rationality and logic, research and exploration cultivated by many years of competition are your greatest gains!

Although you take part in the math contest, you are interested in every subject and never deviate. You have excellent comprehensive performance and solid basic skills. You were rated as a three-good student and won a three-star scholarship. You are convinced that only by learning from others' strengths and tolerating others can you achieve mastery and learn from others. In the future, you will be able to integrate the unique spirit of various disciplines into your character, be knowledgeable, proficient and determined to travel far. You have lived in high school for three years, and there is a long list of books linking our mother and son. You selected books and sent me a list of books to buy every month. Buying books is a way for me to communicate with you and a channel for me to get to know you again. I seem to see the arrangement and combination of knowledge in your mind?

After studying, you are more enthusiastic about all kinds of activities. You like to innovate, study new knowledge, learn scientific innovation methods in science and technology summer camps, and feel more extensive knowledge and thinking in advanced courses of science universities; Do you like club activities, discussing electromagnetic guns and wonderful chemical reactions with friends in the Skeleton Club, watching stars and drawing pictures in the Astronomical Club, learning skills from table tennis club masters, and expressing your views on the small but extraordinary changes in the world in the Model United Nations? You love dedication, and you can be seen in various volunteer activities. Science and technology museum, nature museum, eye museum and MC coffee are all reserved for you. You love sports, especially badminton, and sometimes you even compete with teachers on the court.

During high school, I went south to Hangzhou and Shenzhen with my classmates, west to Wuhan, and north to Beijing and Tianjin to participate in winter camps and academic competitions. Coincidentally, you and I have a highly consistent understanding of the game: focus on participation, focus on the process, and dilute the results. This reflects the superior psychological quality. Students and teachers evaluate you: Mount Tai is at the top, but you are still standing.

Third, the heart yearns for it and follows the past.

The fate of Peking University comes from junior high school. In junior high school, you determined that Peking University is an institution of higher learning for future study. Three years of high school? My heart yearns for it, and I chase it. Be firm and brave.

In your personal statement to Peking University, you wrote: High school is just a small station in my life. The real search for knowledge and the pursuit of life ideals will begin from the university age. I firmly believe that Peking University will be the starting point and farewell place of my academic journey. ? Patriotism, progress, democracy and science? Peking University has a glorious tradition, a diligent, rigorous, realistic and innovative style of study, and a free and inclusive academic spirit. I chose it not because of its famous reputation, but more because of my belief in its culture and spirit. The spirit of Peking University cannot be summarized in a few simple words. What I admire deeply is the tolerant temperament of Peking University. The pursuit of knowledge and undifferentiated respect are reflected in the fact that Peking University accepts both arts and sciences, and different departments of mathematics, engineering, literature, law, business and medicine constitute a benign discipline ecology of Peking University. And that kind of tolerance and exploration of deeper and broader knowledge and ideas in essence has cast a rigorous style of study in Peking University. Therefore, Peking University can get out of the top in all fields, which not only inherits the splendid civilization of a big country, but also leads the future and keeps innovating. It is this inclusiveness that has brought ideological collisions again and again in Peking University, pushing the Chinese nation forward with ideals. ?

? Nowadays, there are a series of academic, technical and economic problems that need to be solved urgently. For example, practical problems are killing young people's original ambitions and ideals. Facing the heavy responsibility of the times, every aspiring young man should put his ideal before his personal well-being, seek the real solution to the problem and undertake the heavy responsibility in the future. Therefore, I hope to use my accumulated advantages in science to continue to improve at Peking University, explore and solve various human problems, and seek the future. I believe that I can make use of my advantages to become a member of aspiring young people, whether it is academic research with pure theory or an applied subject with theory applied to practice. ?

? Therefore, in Peking University, I will participate in lectures, clubs and voluntary activities to lay a good foundation for the future and practice the thinking and exploration of Peking University spirit in various exchanges; At Peking University, I will explore all kinds of new knowledge, integrate the beauty of every academic knowledge, learn without leaving, and combine knowledge with practice to make it bloom with unique beauty; At Peking University, I will meditate, study hard and contribute to the breakthrough and innovation of the world. Peking University is by no means a hollow reputation, but is made up of the actions of every Peking University person. ?

? So, Peking University, here I am. I hope that in the next four years, not only for myself, but also for the name of Peking University, I will be dyed with different colors. ? ? You said high school is not three years, but two years. Because of extensive accumulation and exploration, I was selected into Yanyuan Summer Camp for many times, and I used my actions to weave the silk thread of Peking University again and again?

In the summer of 20 15, senior one entered the Yanyuan for the first time, participated in the summer camp of mathematics award, studied skills with a group of friends wearing blue camp clothes, listened to lectures, and felt the mysterious and rational beauty of mathematics;

20 16 was selected into the physics summer camp and the comprehensive camp to enter the Yan Garden, participate in the selection, participate in activities, live in the Yan Garden, and discuss with peers. You are deeply in love with Peking University, saying that you will regard Peking University as your alma mater for the time being.

I have a contract with Peking University because of the Olympic Games. However, you are not complacent or slack. Introduce Boya. Boya Plan gives you another chance. In the summer of 20 17, you were interviewed by Boya for three times in Yanyuan, which coincided with the fact that the topics were all in kind. You confidently said that the topics should be diversified, otherwise it would be unfair. What makes me happy is not that Boya passed the self-recommendation exam, but your thinking and communication skills in the interview. An interview with near perfect score allows you to successfully enter the Shanghai Boya Program.

Senior three is normal and special. While preparing for the exam, learn what you are interested in, including TOEFL. I especially remember that I was admitted to Peking University in the senior high school entrance examination. You said I wanted to learn TOEFL to prepare for studying abroad in the future. My senior year is basically reviewing. I can study TOEFL well while preparing for the college entrance examination.

When the college entrance examination, the teacher sent the exam to cheer, and the students who went abroad came to cheer. Because you signed the contract, there is almost no pressure on your college entrance examination. You said that the college entrance examination is not youthful. This is a test. I want to answer a satisfactory test paper for my 18 year old youth.

Then, the results came out, and the text message from the Peking University Admissions Team came. Did the naked score reach the line?

Self-enrollment, liberal arts and naked exams all point to one place-Peking University you miss! You have such a deep relationship with Peking University?

Fourth, Peking University: a new starting point for the future.

It is better to study in Boyata than in the unnamed lake. With the autumn rhyme of Beijing in August, you and your/kloc-friends over 0/8 years old walked into the Yan Garden, accepted the baptism of Yaboli Peking University campus, and started another study life from scratch. There will be a future. What else? Where will the future go? As always, it is not harsh, demanding and irreplaceable! Because I know you have the answer in your heart?

The answer lies in the TOEFL from the third year of high school, in the books on the shelf you have read, and in your concern for distance?

? The so-called parents and children just mean the fate between you and him, that is, watching his back drift away all his life. ? The admission notice of Peking University will take you to a broader platform, and it is also a ticket for parting. I'll accompany you on the train to the north, give you to Peking University, and give you to a master who can teach you to sail. You tell me silently? Entering Peking University is just a new starting point, and the road ahead is long? But don't worry after that. Please rest assured that I will go well in the future.

And I sent my son back and stood by the Pujiang River. At this time, I don't want to smell each other, I would like to shine on you every month. . Please remember that no matter where you are, home will always be your harbor; No matter how far you go, your parents only want you to be good, and we are as independent as you.

I just want you to move forward firmly and fly away?

September 20 17
