在全球化时代，双语能力已经成为国际化人才所必备的基本能力之一。

对于LFIS的学生来说，英语既是一门学科，也是一门实用工具，更是一门兴趣。而兴趣是最好的老师，学以致用是学习的终极目的。

上周，LFIS初高中部共同举办了English Week英语周，通过形式多样、内容丰富、创意有趣的一系列活动让同学们使用英语、学习英语，每位学生都积极参与其中，尽情地用英语表达自己。

To celebrate English, our middle school and high school departments have teamed up to co-host English Week! During this entire week, our main objective is to focus on speaking English as much as possible. To help encourage students to participate, we have several games during the week, in addition to events like a Wacky Spelling Bee and Movie Night. It is our sincere hope students have fun, trying their best to speak English through the course of the week. We know English isn't easy-- in fact it's quite difficult-- but that doesn't mean we can't have fun!

English Week，我们有话说

在体验了一周的英语周活动后，学生们对此次活动有些话要说

English week is very good, it improves my English a lot. I hope such a wonderful event can be held several more times!

——G8 Ashley

When the first time I heard there was an English week, I thought it was very good. Usually I would say some Chinese when I don't know the word in English. However, during the English week, when you say Chinese, you will lose one ticket. It's very funny when you try hard to say any words in English.

——G6 Kevin

In the English week, I feel happy. It can help you learn more about English. And we can learn about some tradition.

——G6 Tina

The five day English week inspired me to speak English and suppress my desire to blurt out chinese. When I lost one ticket, I was sad for about two lessons.

——G9 Emma

Recently, our school held an English week. Everyone gets five tickets a day, and if they speak any other language, someone will take one ticket away. I found it so much fun that I took votes from people who spoke other languages while making sure I didn't lose them myself. I ended up with one of the top vote stealers.

——G12 Celine

English week is an activity that you can't speak other languages except English for a week. Through this activity, I realized the importance of native language and how good my English was. I hope we can continue to have fun activities like this.

——G10 Daniel

I think last week’s activity was very interesting, because I could practice my oral English. I got to experience what being in a foreign atmosphere might feel like. This activity is very meaningful and tests my English ablity.

——G11 Irving

英语周的完美落幕并不是学习的结束，而是一个更好的开端。培养优秀的双语学习者并不仅仅是一周，而是每一天，让我们共同努力，每天多学一点点！Enjoy English， Enjoy learning！
