腾飞吧，巨龙

敬爱的老师，亲爱的同学：

Dear teachers and students:

你们好！

How do you do!

打开地图，请为我指出，你最喜欢哪个国度？有人会指美国，因为他们向往美国式的只有；有人会指法国，因为他们向往香水般的浪漫情怀；还有人会指新加坡，因为他们向往花园般美丽的国度。可是，别忘了，我们是中国人，我们有自己的国家——中华人民共和国。

Open the map, please point out for me, which country do you like best? Some people will refer to the United States, because they yearn for the American style only; some people will refer to France, because they yearn for perfume romantic feelings; and others will refer to Singapore, because they yearn for a beautiful country in the garden. But don't forget, we are Chinese, we have our own country - the people's Republic of China.

列宁曾经说过：“忘记过去就意味着背叛。”

Lenin once said, "to forget the past means betrayal."

祖国，是生我、养我的母亲，我那饱经沧桑的祖国母亲。您，从1840年的鸦片战争，甲午战争以及八国联军火烧圆明园。走到了如今的1978你那改革开放，1997年香港回归，1999年澳门回归，2001年的申奥成功，2003年10月15日，太空也出现了中国的身影！

The motherland is the mother who gave birth to me and raised me, my mother who has experienced many vicissitudes. You, from the Opium War in 1840, the Sino Japanese War and the Eight Allied forces, set fire to the Old Summer Palace. In 1978, when Hong Kong returned to China in 1997, Macao returned to China in 1999, and the 2001 Olympic bid was successful. On October 15, 2003, China also appeared in space!

随着科技的发展，时间的变化，也随着我们的努力，中国逐渐走向了国富民强，逐渐抹去了“东亚病夫”的称号。

With the development of science and technology, the change of time, as well as our efforts, China has gradually moved towards the prosperity of the country and the people, and gradually erased the title of "sick man of East Asia".

渐渐的，太空中出现了神六、神七的身影，还有探月卫星嫦娥一号。虽然2008年5月1日下午2点28分发生了前所未有的8级地震，虽然我们同胞肩上压着千金重的水泥，虽然地震压得倒我们的身躯，但压不倒我们的中国心2008年，中国的奥运健儿更是让我们能对蓝眼睛、黄头发的外国人自豪、骄傲地说：“我是中国人！”

Gradually, the figures of Shenzhou VI and Shenzhou VII appeared in space, as well as the moon exploration satellite Chang'e-1. Although there was an unprecedented 8-magnitude earthquake at 2:28 p.m. on May 1, 2008, our compatriots were pressed with thousands of gold heavy cement on their shoulders, although the earthquake weighed down our bodies, but it could not crush our Chinese heart. In 2008, Chinese Olympic athletes let us say proudly to foreigners with blue eyes and yellow hair, "I am Chinese!"

祖国，你带领我们从贫穷、懦弱的“东亚病夫”，走到了现在的国富民强，您，从不忘故时的耻辱，也不张扬现在的光荣，我的祖国母亲，我那历史悠久的祖国母亲，我那饱经沧桑的祖国母亲，您用你瘦弱的身躯挡住了洋炮的弹片，在你的呵护下，我才得以健康茁壮的成长。

Our motherland, you led us from the poor and cowardly "sick man of East Asia" to the country's prosperity and strong people. You never forget the humiliation of your past and don't publicize the present glory. My motherland mother, my motherland mother with a long history, my motherland mother who has experienced a lot of vicissitudes, you blocked the shrapnel of the cannon with your thin body. With your care, I can thrive healthily Strong growth.
