　　On Wednesday 3rdof June, the IHS held the finals of its’ 2019-2020 student speech competition. Students from every grade participated in the preliminary rounds, and come time for the finals, there were 16representatives spanning grade 7-9, hoping to be crowned the winner.

　　6月3日周三，北大附中深圳南山分校國際部舉行了2019-2020學年英語演講比賽決賽。每個年級的學生均參與了初賽；最終，7至9年級誕生的16名選手角逐決賽，爭奪冠軍。

　　Fitting with the times, our topic for the competition was “Why is hope important?”. In English, (and only English), students were allotted 3 minutes to state their opinions. Afterwards, our 4 esteemed judges (Richard, Melody, Tim, and Karen) scored the efforts based on categories such as articulation, fluency, content, timing, and body language.

　　應聲時局，比賽主題定為“why is hope important?”(希望緣何重要)。比賽要求學生用英文在三分鐘以內(nèi)陳述他們的觀點，然后我們的4位評委（Richard, Melody, Tim, and Karen）依據(jù)學生的發(fā)音，流暢度，內(nèi)容，時間把握度，肢體語言等方面現(xiàn)場打分。

　　The competition was close, and a great effort was made by all involved – we saw props, gimmicks, crowd participation, anything possible to give them the advantage over their peers, and come the end we found ourselves a winner.

　　比賽很激烈，所有參賽者都付出了很大的努力——我們看到了道具、噱頭、觀眾的參與，任何可能讓他們比同齡人更具優(yōu)勢的東西，最后我們發(fā)現(xiàn)我們自己就是贏家。

　　Winners of the 3rdplace prize:Hannah (9B), Etienne (7A), and Momoco (8B).

　　三等獎獲得者：任慕涵(9B)，肖屹宸(7A),文渭茵(8B)

　　Winners of the 2ndplace prize:Sarah (9B), Peter (8B) and Watthauer (9A)

　　二等獎獲得者：呂佩珊(9B)，司廣祎(8B)，程御涵(9A)

　　In first place - with the highest average score of 91.5%, our winnerJames (9A).

　　一等獎獲得者——以最高的平均分91.5%勝出，我們的冠軍——黃偉航(9A)

　　An amazing performance was given by all, and you should all be very proud of your accomplishments. It takes bravery to not only stand up in front of a crowd, but to also talk and interact with them, even more courage to give your speech in a second language, AND try to convince others to agree with the points you make.

　　所有人的表現(xiàn)都很出色，大家都應當為自己的成就感到驕傲。站在人群面前，需要的不僅僅是膽量；你需要與他們溝通，與他們互動而且你更需要的是用第二語言發(fā)表演講的勇氣，并且你要試圖說服他人同意你的觀點。

　　We hope students will be encouraged to stand up and try again in the future; look to your fellow classmates for help and support, and you too could be our next winner.

　　我們希望學生們會繼續(xù)有這種站在他人面前進行演說的勇氣；希望你們可以向同學尋求幫助和支持；希望你也能成為下一個冠軍。
