写毛笔字、唱中英文歌、体验传统中学课程……近日，来自聊城大学的10余名外国友人来到夏津一中，与200余名高一学子共同开展了一场别开生面的文化交流活动，在交流与互动中，与夏津学子结下了异国友谊。

At the beginning of the event， under the enthusiastic guidance of the school， international students strolled along the tree lined avenue of Xiajin No．1 Middle School， experiencing the unique humanistic atmosphere of the campus． The students＇ style and subject competition results on the bulletin board attracted them to stop and express their admiration， giving them a preliminary impression of the solid education system in Chinese middle schools．

活动伊始，留学生们在校方的热情引导下，漫步于夏津一中的林荫道，感受校园独特的人文气息。宣传栏上的学生风采、学科竞赛成果，引得他们不时驻足，发出阵阵赞叹，对中国中学扎实的教育体系有了初步印象。

In the calligraphy classroom of the school， international students have shown a strong interest in traditional Chinese brush calligraphy． They held brushes in their hands and， under the patient guidance of their teacher， wrote Chinese characters stroke by stroke． Although the strokes were slightly unfamiliar， their focus and seriousness were moving． From the horizontal and vertical strokes， they feel the profoundness of Chinese calligraphy art and appreciate the unique charm contained in Chinese characters．

在学校的书法教室里，留学生们对中国传统的毛笔字表现出了浓厚的兴趣。他们手握毛笔，在老师的耐心指导下，一笔一划地书写着汉字，尽管笔画略显生疏，但那份专注与认真让人动容。从横竖撇捺中，他们感受着中国书法艺术的博大精深，体会到汉字所蕴含的独特魅力。

Chinese culture is so fascinating． This event allowed me to see the vibrant China outside of books， and the enthusiasm of Xiajin No．1 High School gave me a sense of home，＂sighed Dong Mei， a foreign student from Jordan．

“中国文化太迷人了，这次活动让我看到书本外鲜活的中国，夏津一中的热情也让我有了家的感觉。”来自约旦的外国留学生冬梅感慨道。

Subsequently， in the school＇s broadcasting classroom， a unique Chinese and English song singing activity kicked off． The international students and students from Xiajin No．1 High School sang loudly together， and a Chinese representative music piece called＂May People Last Long＂ performed by Chinese and foreign friends suddenly pulled the students into a dynamic and fantastic music world．

随后，在学校的演播教室里，一场别开生面的中英文歌曲演唱活动拉开帷幕。留学生们与夏津一中的学生们共同放声高歌，一首由中外友人共同演奏的中国代表乐《但愿人长久》，一下子将中外学子拽入了动感、奇幻的音乐世界。

The melodious melody of Chinese songs and the dynamic rhythm of English songs echo in the classroom． They broke down language barriers with their singing， conveying each other＇s passion and friendship， showcasing the love and persistence of young people towards music in a multicultural context． At the event， students from No．1 Middle School also performed wonderful programs such as English stage plays， English genealogy， English hometown， and English dreams． International student representatives introduce themselves and their countries one by one in Chinese．

中文歌曲的悠扬旋律和英文歌曲的动感节奏在教室里回荡。他们用歌声打破了语言的隔阂，传递着彼此的热情与友谊，展现出多元文化背景下年轻人对音乐的热爱与执着。活动现场，一中学子还现场表演了英语舞台剧、英语说家谱、英语说家乡、英语说梦想等精彩节目。国际学生代表用汉语一一介绍自己和自己的国家。

On the campus playground， international students also enthusiastically experienced the campus recess activity － the ninth set of radio gymnastics． Under the demonstration of students from No．1 Middle School， they followed the horse tying steps， punched， kicked their legs， and each move was precise and impressive， feeling the strength and softness of the activities during break time．

而在校园的操场上，留学生们还兴致勃勃地体验了校园里的课间活动——第九套广播体操。在一中学子的示范下，他们跟着扎马步、出拳、踢腿，一招一式有板有眼，感受着课间活动的刚健与柔美。

The activity of foreign students entering Xiajin No．1 High School has promoted communication and interaction between Chinese and foreign students through various forms of cultural experiences． Both parties learn from each other， understand each other， and grow together through communication． Not only has it enriched international students＇ understanding of Chinese culture， but it has also broadened the international perspective of teachers and students at Xiajin No．1 High School， building a solid bridge for cross－cultural exchange and sowing the seeds of multicultural integration on campus．

此次外国留学生走进夏津一中的活动，通过多种形式的文化体验，促进了中外学生之间的交流与互动。双方在交流中相互学习、相互理解，共同成长。不仅丰富了留学生们对中国文化的认知，也拓宽了夏津一中师生的国际视野，为跨文化交流搭建了一座坚实的桥梁，在校园中播撒下了多元文化融合的种子。
