瑞得福國(guó)際學(xué)校每周校長(zhǎng)信

The hard work is done!

艱巨的任務(wù)已經(jīng)完成!

Now, we have completed that final week of our academic year, 2021/22, and this weekend many of you may be carrying out final reviews. Please make good use of your time. Most of the work should be done by now and of you have been actively taking notes and attending to challenges as the year has progressed you will likely be in good standing for the exams next week. Do what you can in the time remaining, then simply do your best. It is all anyone can ask for. I personally wish you all the success possible and look forward to seeing you all shine.

現(xiàn)在，我們已經(jīng)完成了2021至2022學(xué)年的最后一周的學(xué)習(xí)，本周末許多同學(xué)會(huì)進(jìn)行最后的復(fù)習(xí)。請(qǐng)好好利用你的時(shí)間。大部分的學(xué)習(xí)任務(wù)至此就應(yīng)該結(jié)束了，大多數(shù)同學(xué)也一直在主動(dòng)記筆記，積極應(yīng)對(duì)挑戰(zhàn)，隨著時(shí)間的推移，同學(xué)們將有機(jī)會(huì)在下周的考試中取得很好的成績(jī)。希望大家在剩下的時(shí)間里盡己所能，盡力做到最好。這是任何人都應(yīng)該主動(dòng)去做的。我祝愿同學(xué)們一切順利，并期待著看到大家的出彩表現(xiàn)。

I would like to extend a special thanks to Tony, Susan, and Fiona, a group I had the pleasure to meet weekly. I enjoyed my time with you and thank you for the conversations we had together. I wish you well and I look forward next year to continuing my conversation with groups of students like this, it is very insightful and inspiring to have met you. We shared Pizza on our final meeting, and I enjoyed this time with you as well. I even specifically ordered extra cheese for you Tony. Pizzaworks! Thanks, and good luck on your exams next week.

我想特別感謝Tony, Susan和 Fiona同學(xué)，每周和你們?nèi)艘娒嫖叶己芨吲d。我享受與你們溝通交流的時(shí)間。希望你們學(xué)習(xí)生活順心如意。我期待著下一學(xué)年繼續(xù)和類似的學(xué)生小組進(jìn)行對(duì)話，和同學(xué)們的會(huì)面交流能帶給我獨(dú)特的見解和靈感。我們?cè)谧詈笠淮谓涣鲿?huì)上分享了披薩，因此這一次和你們的會(huì)面也讓人很開心。我還特別為Tony同學(xué)預(yù)定了額外的奶酪。披薩非常美味!謝謝各位同學(xué)，祝你們下周考試好運(yùn)。

On the cover of this week’s RDF Weekly I have included a pink carnation. This is a symbol of Oxford University tradition. At Oxford, students wear a white carnation for the first Oxford exam that they sit, a pink carnation for middle exams, and a red for the final exam. You are in the midst of exams at RDF, so I offer you this gesture as an extension from my time at Oxford. Enter your exams with confidence, calmness, and cleverness. Read questions well, use the time allotted, review your responses, and be as tidy as possible to help leave a positive impression for your teacher whom will grade these.

在本星期瑞得福校長(zhǎng)信周刊的封面上，我附上了一朵粉紅色康乃馨。這是牛津大學(xué)傳統(tǒng)的象征。在牛津大學(xué)，學(xué)生在入學(xué)參加第一次牛津考試時(shí)佩戴白色康乃馨，在學(xué)校學(xué)習(xí)中期的考試佩戴粉紅色康乃馨，最后一次考試時(shí)佩戴紅色康乃馨。同學(xué)們正要參加瑞得福在校期間的考試，所以我想以此源自我在牛津大學(xué)的考試傳統(tǒng)作為拓展分享。希望同學(xué)們自信、冷靜和聰明地參加考試。認(rèn)真閱讀問題，分配好答題時(shí)間，檢查試卷，并盡可能地保持卷面整潔，以便給評(píng)卷老師留下良好的印象。

Most importantly, when you are done, reflect on 1) how well you had approached your academic year, 2) how well you prepared for these exams, 3) how well you did on the exams, and 4) how well you met your personal expectations. With these reflections make appropriate adjustments in the future. For now, however; it is important to use the remaining time before exams to try and work out any areas of contention that may be on the exams ahead of you. I believe in all of you. One weekend to go – use this time efficiently and effectively.

最重要的是，當(dāng)你完成考完試的時(shí)候，不妨反思：(1)你在本學(xué)年的學(xué)習(xí)表現(xiàn)如何;(2)你在這些考試中的準(zhǔn)備情況如何;(3)你在考試中的表現(xiàn)如何;(4)你在多大程度上實(shí)現(xiàn)了自己的目標(biāo)期望。通過這些反思，對(duì)未來的學(xué)習(xí)做出適當(dāng)?shù)恼{(diào)整。然而，就目前而言，最重要的是要利用考試前的剩余時(shí)間，努力找出考試中可能存在尚未完全掌握的知識(shí)點(diǎn)。我相信你們所有人。還有一個(gè)周末——希望同學(xué)們高效利用這段時(shí)間。

TIP溫馨提示

If there is a particular area or concept you are having trouble with, go back and review your notes. Recall what was said and what examples were used in class. Pretend that you are teaching this to a classmate, this particular concept that challenges you. Even go so far as to make a power point, to explain it. What is the crux of the challenge for you, break it down, dissect it, be able to explain it to someone new to the concept. Look directly at the “hard bits”, don’t look away from them. Solve them. You can do it! Solve the “hard bits”!

如果有同學(xué)對(duì)某個(gè)特定領(lǐng)域知識(shí)或概念有疑問，請(qǐng)查看并復(fù)習(xí)曾經(jīng)做的筆記?；仡櫿n堂上所講的知識(shí)和老師所使用的例子。設(shè)想你正在教某一位同學(xué)相關(guān)的概念——這一具有挑戰(zhàn)性的特殊概念。你甚至可以做一個(gè)PPT來解釋它。要弄清楚對(duì)你來說，某個(gè)知識(shí)難在哪里，然后嘗試分解剖析，做到能夠向新學(xué)的人解釋。直面“難題”挑戰(zhàn)，不要逃避。你能解決這些“難題”的!

Good luck dear students. I have great faith in you. Do well!

親愛的同學(xué)們，祝你們好運(yùn)!我對(duì)你們有信心，加油!

Kind Regards致意
