近日，NACIS中学生们参加了在耶鲁大学举办的世界学者杯(WSC)冠军赛。我们的学生要与来自世界各地的学生用同一种语言进行竞争，并且紧扣国际社会热议的话题。

这是我校学生第一次闯入世界学者杯的冠军赛。我们的学生组成三支队伍，向4大项目（团队辩论、协同写作、学者学术挑战、学者超级碗）、6大领域（历史、科学、文学、社会研究、艺术、特殊的领域）发起冲击。

这一打破传统的学术挑战，对学生知识储备、跨学科应用、心理素质的要求极高。学生需要钻研大量的资源，学习不熟悉的话题。最重要的是，在比赛中需要灵活应对他们从未触及的领域。

每个人都要注意和队友之间的配合，同时也要找机会发挥自己的亮点。

虽说是新手驾到，但是我校同学表现亮眼！拿下5枚金牌，8枚银牌和两项达芬奇荣誉奖。其中，在演讲上颇有经验的Lillian同学，表现抢眼，一人斩获三金一银。在写作和辩论这两大项中，我校学生成绩优异，分别有5枚奖牌和2枚奖牌进账。

对学生而言，为期六天的耶鲁之旅不仅是一次很有意义的学术体验，而更多的是和来自世界各地的小学们的同台竞技，收获了一同拼搏的友情。漫步于耶鲁校园，同学们聆听了耶鲁本科生讲述他们大学生活，心中也开始畅想起以后的大学生活。

不仅在耶鲁，在哈佛和麻省理工学院，同学们也和本科生面对面交流，并对如何成为世界顶尖大学的学生有了大致的了解。看到这里所有大学生都有着浓厚的学习热情，并恪守自己的兴趣，同学们受到了极大的启发：热情、动力和勤奋努力是这些大学生必备的品质，仅仅靠学习成绩是不够的。

做一个世界学者，要用不同角度看问题，用不同的方法去解决。这次学者杯的经历，更让我们的同学体会到世界之大，还有更多的潜力可以去挖掘，还有更多的机会可以去创造，还有更大的舞台等着他们。更重要的是：要志存高远。

耶鲁，期待下次相遇！

Breaking the Strongest Academic Competition, Our Harvest is Beyond the Champion!

NACIS secondary students have recently returned from competing in World Scholar’s Cup (WSC) Tournament of Champions at the prestigious Yale University. During this time, the focus of the event was to compete with students from various countries all over the world using a common language and become more entwined in an international world.

This was the first time that NACIS students had qualified for the final round of WSC. Three teams managed to qualify for this illustrious event. The competition as always comprised of 4 different events: team debate; collaborative writing; Scholar’s Challenge and Scholar’s Bowl. These events focus on 6 subject areas: history, science, literature, social studies, arts and a special area.

This competition breaks the traditional academic challenge, which has high requirements on students' knowledge reserve, interdisciplinary application and psychological quality. Students need to delve into a lot of resources and study unfamiliar topics. Above all, they need to be flexible in areas they have never touched before.

Everyone should focus on the cooperation between his teammates and look for opportunities to play their best.

Although the challenge was monumental, the students who competed did also succeed. They achieved 5 gold medals and 8 silver medals as well as 2 Da Vinci awards. Lillian from G9 performed very well with 3 gold medals for school’s top scholar; literature and debate as well as 1 silver medal in team collaborative writing.  Our students also achieved outstanding results in writing and debate, with 5 medals and 2 medals respectively.

The 6-day-trip to Yale was such a rewarding experience, not just academically, for the students with a variety of activities and time to work with fellow WSC competitors from around the world. Walking on the campus we were able to listen to Yale undergraduates’ sharing their experiences and think our university life in the future.

Not only at Yale but also on a day trip to Harvard and MIT students got to speak to undergraduates; were given tours of the campuses and generally got a feel for what it takes to become a student at one of the world’s top universities.

All the students we met from the universities demonstrated their passion to learn and showed a keen commitment to their interests. The common theme was that passion, drive and going the extra mile is what it takes to be a student of these institutes, which inspires us a lot.  Academic performance alone is not enough.

To be a world scholar, one has to look at problems from a different perspective and solve them in a different way.

This WSC experience enables our students to realize the world is so big and there are more potential to explore and more opportunities to create.  A bigger stage is waiting for them. 

Above all, be ambitious.

Yale, see you next time！
