Comments on Visiting Yuanmingyuan 1
During the winter vacation, my parents and I visited Yuanmingyuan, which is a garden of ten thousand gardens.
When we came to the gate of Yuanmingyuan, the first thing we saw was the pair of mighty stone lions at the gate. Although they are very old, they are still magnificent. Mouth slightly open, eyes wide open, as if ready to do or die with the invading enemy, daunting.
Entering the gate, the park is crowded with tourists. We first came to a stone arch bridge, the deck of which had partially collapsed and the rest of the deck was crumbling. According to records, during the heyday of Yuanmingyuan, there were more than 200 stone arch bridges in the park. Due to the burning damage of the British and French allied forces, only this broken single-arch stone bridge is left in the garden.
Here we go again. This is a garden that imitates the maze of Europe. The carved brick wall about one meter high is divided into several mazes, so it is called a kaleidoscope. Flower array is also called yellow flower array. According to reports, every Mid-Autumn Festival night, the emperor will come here, sit in the pavilion in the center of the array to enjoy the moon, and order the ladies-in-waiting to hold lotus lanterns made of yellow satin and try to fly. Looking around, it looks like yellow flowers falling in the maze. I am also interested in walking in the maze with other tourists and looking for the path together.
Then, we visited the Xiyanglou Ruins Park in Yuanmingyuan. I saw a beautifully carved stone lion, and now only half of its body is left, lying on its side on the ground. The original beautiful fountain had only a lotus-shaped base. Carved stone steps have also been "dismembered". This beautifully built three-story building is now beyond recognition ... really sad! At this time, my father told me the history of humiliating the Chinese nation: "Yuanmingyuan used to be a world-famous garden." It combines the essence of Chinese and western architecture. It turns out that there are countless pearl treasures in the gorgeous palace. Yuanmingyuan was once world-renowned for its large scale, exquisite gardening, rich cultural collection and profound national cultural connotation, and was known as the' Garden of Ten Thousand Gardens'. But more than a hundred years ago, Britain and France jointly launched the second war against China. British and French troops invaded Beijing, looted Yuanmingyuan and set it on fire. Yuanmingyuan has become a ruin, leaving only these ruins for future generations ... "
Looking at this horrible scene, I can't help but imagine the magnificent hall, exquisite pavilions, bustling shopping streets and rural scenery in front of Yuanmingyuan. Strolling in the garden is like traveling all over the country, enjoying the scenic spots at home and abroad, making people feel like they are in a paradise on earth!
Thought of here, my grief and indignation will gush out from my chest: Yuanmingyuan, you are the crystallization of the wisdom of the working people in China and the accumulation of China's history and culture. However, you were ruthlessly trampled by robbers. You are the witness of the aggressor's crime! You, silently warn the people of China not to forget the national humiliation, and make a determined effort to make the Chinese nation forever strong!
Thoughts on visiting Yuanmingyuan
Yuanmingyuan, the witness of Eight-Nation Alliance, Britain and France, is heartbreaking in its destruction. Bernard Brissel, a famous French historian, once said: The disaster of Yuanmingyuan is a great disaster in the history of China and the history of world civilization. ...
I have been to Yuanmingyuan more than once, and I have read that heartbreaking history more than once. The Yuanmingyuan recorded in the history books is like a fairyland on earth. She not only witnessed the luxurious palace life from Kangxi to Tongzhi emperor, but also declared to the world that she was the pride of the Chinese nation. However, every time I walked into Yuanmingyuan, I was impressed by broken walls. Pieces of broken stone tablets tell us about the sufferings of that year. The surviving stone lions and rubble seem to tell us about Eight-Nation Alliance's greed and plunder. ...
The social class activity "Crossing Yuanmingyuan" in No.1 Middle School in Daxing District, where my son is located, made me walk into Yuanmingyuan again and gained something different from the past. ...
More than 700 students from Grade Two 15, led by the director of * Principal * and the head teachers of all grades, boarded the bus of the travel agency and headed for the destination-Yuanmingyuan.
Sitting with the children, I feel young in an instant, as if I had returned to my school days. Looking at the young and energetic children, I suddenly got excited and looked forward to reaching my destination as soon as possible and entering the Yuanmingyuan.
Speaking of which, I want to give a compliment to the headmaster and all the staff of Daxing * Middle School! Thanks to their efforts, more than 700 students participated in the activities in an orderly manner. Although the bus had a little trouble on the way, under the guidance of the teachers, the children got on the bus of other classes. On the bus, I once again realized the quality of teachers and children-giving up their seats to each other and praising them in my heart!
Arrived at Yuanmingyuan smoothly, students from the University of Science and Technology and Sports arranged by the travel agency served as coaches for this activity, and arranged security officers to assist in the work. It is worth mentioning that the school's * principal and grade * director have been assisting in the management. The head teachers of all grades have never left, and the parents of the students invited by the school have followed the children's classes all the way, not only assisting the teachers in the management, but also actively participating in the activities.
At the beginning of the activity, all the students gathered in front of the Dashuifa site in Yuanmingyuan. The teacher of the travel agency assigned tasks to the students, then explained the history of Yuanmingyuan and announced the start of the activity. Each grade has its own style. Read the team name and slogan. My son's class 14, because the car broke down on the road, the students were not fully prepared, and the style showed a little accident, but it did not affect the morale of the students. They rubbed their fists one after another.
Under the guidance of the coach and the safety officer,/kloc-grade 0/5 began to compete, answer questions, find residual pictures and play games ... the class teacher and our two parents have been with the students, watching them unite and struggle, carefully observe, play games and take the initiative to attack ... I can't help but feel happy for the children and sincerely thank the school for everything it has done for them.
It's time for lunch. The children bring their own lunch. When eating, I once again felt the enthusiasm and intimacy of the children, as well as the feelings between the class teacher and the children. At that moment, I felt that we were really a family, sharing and having fun together. ...
After lunch, the activities continued, and the children were full of enthusiasm and vitality. Under the guidance of the coach, they successfully completed the final task and arrived at the assembly point first!
After all the classes completed the task collection, our class made an elegant appearance display, which was considered as compensation for the failure. Then there is a tight score. ...
The host shouted: "The class that won the third place in this big social classroom activity in Yuanmingyuan is 14! The children were boiling, and the monitor even forgot to accept the prize happily. Under the reminder of his classmates, he stepped forward to receive the class's collective honor-the third prize trophy and small gifts.
After the award ceremony, the chairman made a concluding speech on the activity. She said: We travel through history, look for history, remember history and firmly remember the lessons left by history ... Our school is not a dead student, we have to leave the school gate, we have to make our children's knowledge wider and wider, and we are cultivating useful talents with both IQ and EQ!
After the activity, under the guidance of the teachers, the children got on the bus of their class in an orderly way, and I was lucky enough to sit in the car with the headmaster. On the way, the headmaster and director not only introduced the activities to be organized in the future, but also asked us for suggestions on school work, and patiently listened to the problems our children encountered in their growth and answered our questions, which not only gave us ideas and ways, but also made us treat ourselves as parents with empathy.
The car is flying, and the children are quietly reminiscing about the feelings brought by this activity. The headmaster and director answered the questions for us politely. I know my children are really lucky, because they have entered Daxing *, because of *' s teaching philosophy, because of *' s teachers who really educate people!
Who said that I visited Yuanmingyuan with a heavy heart besides remembering national humiliation? I am very happy this time. Are you happy?
