Hello, good Morning to the staff of Huamei and the students of Huamei. I am Mr. Mcs. Today is another very special day at our prestigious school as we celebrate culture day. 我已经在中国好几年了，有九年多了， 对我来说，我感觉我对中国的文化有一点了解。 今天我来说，我自己发现了 中国的教育文化。 世界上的人都知道中国 有 很长的历史, over 5 thousand years of written history. Throughout this long and captivating history, China has produced so many wise philosophers, whose words of wisdom still resonate with us and hold even in 2022.  关于 教育 education ，在中国的历史上，有一个非常重要的人， 你们 能猜猜他是谁吗, Confucius孔子.  The words and teachings of Confusion are not only relevant and still practiced in China, but globally 不管你在美国,不管你在巴西，不管你在德国 都有孔子学校，让你去理解孔子的思想。 Confucianism is an ethical school of thought adopted by many thinkers around the world, and he gave great importance to education. Confucius established a moral code of conduct based on human principles of mutual respect, good conduct, and familial ties. He viewed education as a means of transformation, the discovery of human nature, and the cultivation of character. Through education, virtues are developed and integrated. Confusion’s philosophy 他的哲学 is a philosophy of lifelong learning which is what we aim to achieve at Huamei. One quote from  Confucius that really stays with me is “Success depends upon previous preparation, and without such preparation, there is sure to be a failure” 如果没有准备好很可能你会失败了. 你的父母。 你的老师们 都 为了 你的未来。 The sacrifice of your parents and the hard work of your teachers are all to make sure that you are educated, trained, moral people who will go out into the world and prosper, and in doing so create a better world for yourself and your future generations. That’s why I want to tell you wonderful students of Huamei respect each other, respect your parents, and respect your teachers. What we do today is for your better tomorrow.

Thank you.
