北宋欧阳修曾言：“立身以立学为先，立学以读书为本。”从这句话里，我们可以明白读书的重要性。上海青浦区协和双语学校也始终秉持这样的理念，认为读书对于塑造孩子们的未来有着很重要的作用。于是，近期我们举办了首届“BOOK WEEK 读书周”活动。本次活动为期五天，期间共有1600多种中外图书与师生们见面，可谓是一场阅读的饕餮盛宴。
Before settling down, we should focus on learning and before learning, we should focus on reading, said by Ouyang Xiu from Northern Song Dynasty. From this sentence, we can catch the importance of reading and SUIS Qingpu Campus have always adhered to the idea that reading plays an important role in shaping children’s future. So we held the first “Book Week” on such a sweet day. This activity lasts for 5 days. During this period, there are more than 1600 Chinese and foreign books meeting with teachers and students which can be said to be a feast for reading.
也许，你对书展的印象是只能走马观花式的浏览，但作为独家开放的书展，我们的读书郎却可以优哉游哉的慢慢挑选出自己心仪的图书。而这，也正好符合我们举办书展的用意：在让孩子们畅游书海，丰富知识的同时，也让孩子能够开始意识到什么是“自主选择”。
Perhaps, your impression of the book fair is that you can cast only a passing glance at that time, but as an exclusive book fair, our readers can slowly select the books they like. This is also in line with our intention of holding the Book Week: let children enjoy reading books and enrich their knowledge, at the same time, let children start to realize what is “independent choice”.
与略显清冷的气候不同，同学们对书展的热情十分高涨。会场内，人声鼎沸，摩肩接踵：有因为共同的爱好而挤在一起翻看同一本书的；也有因为看到一本久觅不得的图书而兴奋欢呼的；还有因为曾经看过某本书正在对同学进行介绍的。会场外，车水马龙，熙熙攘攘：有急着趁下课时间前来挑书的；也有已经选购完赶着回教室的，还有赶回去呼朋唤友后再来会场的……
Different from the cold climate, the enthusiasm of the students for the book exhibition is very high. There are a lot of people and babel of voices in LRC: some are crowded together to look at the same book because of their common hobbies, some are excited and cheered because of seeing a book they haven’t found for a long time, some are introducing a have read book to their classmates. There even have a heavy traffic at the door of LRC：some are eager to choose books after class, some are have finished shopping and hurry back to the classroom, some are go back to call their friends to go book fair together.
有些同学更是等不及的直接就在现场津津有味地看起书来，沉浸在书中的世界。秋读书，玉露凉，钻科研，学文章。愿我们在书香中一起向着未来扬帆起航，谱写华丽乐章！
Some students can’t wait to read books directly on the spot with interest. There is cool dew when reading and learning articles in autumn. Wish we can set sail for the future and compose magnificent music score together in the fragrance of books!
