路过你的时光

武汉市新洲一中高三  许诗妹

 

两三盏微黄的油灯,青幕底下无垠的稻田,伴着几声鸟叫虫鸣,家乡的青瓦白石寂然睡去,仿佛走进江南小镇,听得见这里人的鼾眠声。在漫长的夜色里,一切都恍忽静止,像村头的那条河,静默着,缓缓带走一年又一年的落叶。

生长在这样的村庄,我从小就习得江南女子素有的温婉、雅致。三岁那年,父亲引我穿过村子的条条巷道,青石板铺成的小路自然放慢人的脚步,我们走了很久,才来到一间简陋的屋前。门虚掩着,父亲喊了声“来啦”便静静地等着,我看着屋前一株竹子怔了许久,门才“吱呀”长叹一声开了,走出一个白发苍苍的老人,他面容安详、和善,但我第一次看到人脸上如此多的皱纹沟壑,禁不住哭了起来,哭声惊得屋顶的鸽子一齐飞向空中。

后来,老人领我进屋里,打开一卷纸,神神叨叨地在我面前摆弄研墨,随后大笔一挥扬扬洒洒地写下两个大字:腾飞。遒劲有力,惊得我忘却了方才的哭泣。那日起,我便开始跟他学书法。我喊他“老爷”,据说是村里年纪最大的,年轻时上过私塾,学得一手好字,现在闲来无事,父亲便送我去他那儿写字,一来学点儿东西,二来省了照看我的时间。

父亲是村里鲜有的读书人,因为高考时出了天花,从此便留了下来,跟一个糕点师傅学手艺,自己也做起了糕点。当时农村戴眼镜的人少,我每次去老爷家时,遇见村里的人,他们都会亲切地喊我“眼镜家的姑娘”。偶有好心的婶婶看到我,忙从屋里拿出一颗热鸡蛋,放到我的手心;经常坐在门前的王奶奶也会招呼我过去,笑吟吟地说:“好闺女,好年纪,快快长大。”不一会儿又改口:“慢慢长,慢慢走……”

后来,王奶奶突然去世了,安然睡去的。听人说她一直在等自己的女儿回家,她女儿当年出去打工,说想看看外面的世界,一去就是十七年。

村庄依旧宁静。我每日走去老爷家,握笔的手渐有力度了,想着能快快学成,能挥洒自如地写出那两个“腾飞”,满心期待。一日,我在纸上偷偷练这两个字时被老爷发现了,一向慈爱的他头一次厉声训斥我:“字要慢慢练,还不会走就学着跑!”自此,我便规规矩矩临帖三年,每一日的光阴,在农人的播种、收割又播种中循环往复,平淡地流走。

到了学龄,母亲从城里过来,要接我去那里上学。我去看父亲,他正在面粉堆里埋头做事,心想他是应允了。临走前的一天,我照例走熟悉的青石板路,路过无垠的稻田,金色的稻穗张扬着阳光的美好,农人在田间收割,镰刀一声声不紧不慢,田梗上休憩的农妇朝我远远地扬手……

老爷最后一次教我书法,照例展开一张纸。这次却是不紧不慢地,缓缓地着墨,缓缓地写下“腾飞”两个字,一笔一画,像是完成一份精美的艺术品,慎重地交到我手中。我好似明白了什么,只觉这三年的慢功细活,终于还是没有白费。

回家途中,路过打谷场,高高的谷堆旁,坐着父亲,他邀我到身旁,陪他看日落。那轮红日也仿佛不舍什么,缓缓地才与大地相拥,父亲像是在接受什么神圣的使命,正襟危坐,表情肃穆。我有些不明白,父亲为何如此眷恋这个小村庄,他本可以走出去,去看更广阔的世界。

那日后,我还是走了,也真正感受外面的世界,精彩却又无奈。它不同于村庄的鸟叫虫鸣,它是一种催人不得不快步向前的魔咒,让我在这个陌生的城市里感到摇摇欲坠。太多的纷扰、浮华,令人应接不暇,我在这条路上只有快点向前,拼命跑,没有人再来告诉我:“好闺女,慢慢走,慢慢长……”

临近高考,眼下十七岁的我,只知道冲刺二字,疲惫奋战中,突然接到父亲的电话:“老爷去世了,你回来看看吧。”淡淡的几个字,听不出任何情感。村庄的那种淡泊宁静,怕是融入了父亲的骨髓。我在电话这头点点头,哽咽着不出声,好长一段时间里,只听到那头的呼吸声……

我回了久违的故乡,一切好像都没有变,一样的风景,一样的人。父亲在村口等我,准备了鱼竿,和我坐在河边钓鱼。浮标长时间纹丝不动,时间也仿佛停滞。看着缓缓流动的河水,仿佛看到村庄人被淘洗冲刷的生命,王奶奶、老爷、父亲……他们都是这河流的一部分。

我丢下一颗石子,荡开层层涟漪……突然觉得,自己就像那颗石子,但终究还是沉到了河底

More Than a Setting: Why Digital Privacy is a Human Right

More Than a Setting: Why Digital Privacy is a Human Right

When we hear the phrase “digital privacy,” we often picture complex encryption, scrolling through endless legal disclaimers, or a cybersecurity expert in a dark room. But in our modern world, privacy is far more than a technical hurdle; it is a deeply human social issue that touches the core of how we live. It is about the quiet dignity of being able to move through the world—searching for answers, talking to friends, or exploring new ideas—without feeling like a hidden audience is constantly scoring and measuring our every move. In an age where our daily lives have migrated online, protecting our data is no longer just about hiding secrets; it’s about protecting our fundamental freedom to grow without being “nudged” by an algorithm.

The challenge of modern life is that we are constantly generating a trail of digital footprints, often without a choice. Our phones track our movements, our apps monitor our habits, and our browsers record our deepest curiosities. We often “consent” to this tracking not because we truly want to, but because it is nearly impossible to participate in modern society—to find a job, go to school, or stay in touch with family—without clicking “Agree.” This creates a lopsided power dynamic where we are highly visible to massive, invisible institutions that know our preferences better than we might know them ourselves. When our data is used to predict our behavior or manipulate our attention, we lose a little bit of our autonomy to systems we can’t even see.

This environment is particularly taxing for young people, who are building their identities in a digital fishbowl. For a teenager, a post or a “like” might feel like a temporary expression of a passing mood, but for a data broker, it is a permanent piece of a profitable profile. There is a painful gap between the casual, human way we use the internet and the cold, permanent way platforms harvest our information. We shouldn’t have to choose between being connected and being private. Protecting digital privacy means ensuring that the next generation has the space to make mistakes, change their minds, and define who they are without a digital shadow following them for the rest of their lives.

Ultimately, privacy is not about having something to hide; it is about having something to protect. It is the foundation of a free and open society. If we want a future where technology serves us rather than the other way around, we need to treat data ethics as a social responsibility. This means pushing for laws that put people before profits and cultivating a culture that values human agency. We must move toward a world where we can enjoy the incredible benefits of being connected without sacrificing the basic human need to simply be left alone.

该不该扶摔伤老人?

“碰瓷”一词来源于北方方言,泛指一些投机取巧,敲诈勒索的人。近几年,不少新闻都报道八旬老人故意摔伤讹诈好心救助之人。明明是一件善举,却被一些险恶用心的人利用,造成十分恶劣的社会影响。如今,看到一位老人摔倒在地,你是扶还是不扶?
自古以来,尊老爱幼是中华名族的美好品德。从上幼儿园的时候,老师就告诉我们:“赠人玫瑰,手留余香”,并教导我们主动给老人让座,主动去帮助那些需要帮助的人。但是,近些年报导的新闻却给我们传达这样一个信息:“好人没有好报”。当我们热心去帮助那些需要帮助的老人时,他们却利用我们的善心,反过来讹诈我们。因此很多人都会在面临这种情况时,会怀疑被需要帮助人的动因,从而不敢主动上去帮助他人。

对于扶不扶这个问题,不同的人有不同的看法,我认为,不论什么情况下,我们还是应该主动去帮助那些需要帮助的人。一方面,并不是每一个需要帮助的人都不坏好心,我们不能因为个别少数的现象就对真个社会的“真善美”产生质疑。如果老人真的是摔倒需要帮助,而我们仅仅因为害怕被敲诈就不去帮别人,这肯定是不对的。另外一方面,即使存在对方故意敲诈勒索的情况,现在很多公共场合都有摄像头,因此,那些有险恶用心的人也没有办法撒谎。所以我们可以放心大胆的去帮助别人,无论对方是否真的需要帮助。

2013……

北京市石景山区北师大励耘实验中学高二年级 马思祺

 

神秘消失的玛雅文明与古代中国的推背图都向世人揭露了一个震惊世界的信息,人类文明经过数千年的进化将在2012年被毁灭。这是真实的诅咒,还是虚假的阴谋?如果玛雅与古代中国的预言成真,那么面对全人类的是天灾、地乱,还是人祸?这一切都无从得知。因为现在是公元2010年,人类是无法预先知道未来的情况的。

不过这么好的题材,聪明的美国电影人是不会放过的,于是由美国著名导演罗兰·艾默里奇执导的电影《2012》在公元2009年11月从北美向亚洲袭来。在电影《2012》疯狂吸金的同时,也向观众传达了一个信息:如果再不保护我们的地球,“2012”不远了。好像是商量好了一样,2009年第一吸金电影《阿凡达》也有同样的主题:人类的家园——地球,因为人类的破坏而几乎面临支离破碎的景象……这最吸金的两部电影好像在表达着,无论人类科技多么发达,地球家园的分崩离析对于人类来说肯定有百害而无一利,真到那时,无家可归的地球人将何去何从?

宇宙虽大,何处是我家?当人类意识到时,恐怕为时已晚了。根据科学家们的观测,人类最有可能居住的地方远在两万光年以外,以目前的技术,2212年都不一定能造得出那么先进的飞船。更别说太阳的辐射、大爆炸尘埃、食物的供给等问题,我想2012年的天灾真的到来时,我们可能哪儿也去不了。与其引颈就戮,不如现在就改造地球。我此话一出,他人必然笑道:“怎么改造?拿什么改造?2012年的世界末日连联合国都不能解决,你上嘴唇一碰下嘴唇说句改造就能解决得了?更何况今年世界各地灾难如雨后春笋一个接着一个。地震、海啸、泥石流、冰暴、森林大火、洪水、矿难等等,就光一个墨西哥湾漏油事件就使数十里海域风吹无浪、水波不兴,百万水族生灵死于非命。这些还只是‘大餐’前的‘开味甜点’,‘开味甜点’尚且吃不消,你一句改造就能席卷整桌‘大餐’?”

在此,我无言以对,我只能说:“只有改造地球才是希望和信仰,虽然2012年地球不一定会毁灭,但是如果人类再自掘坟墓,破坏自然,天罚迟早会到来。一个2012年远去了,那么2013呢?2014呢?我们只有一个地球,她是我们生存的地方,是她养育了我们。人只有在失去时,才懂得珍惜。如果你能感受到2013年拂面的轻风、霏霏的小雨、充满生机的小草、绚烂的朝阳与晚霞,你一定会感动,既使你曾经心如死水,波澜不惊。”

千万别等到2013年才知道珍惜,如果你依然冥顽不化,我只有一句话:“2011年快到了,2012年还会远吗?”

食品健康

最近有新闻爆料,大批二战时期的战争储备物资流入中国市场。其中,更有大批量的二战时候的冷冻肉(俗称僵尸肉)流入中国,引发中国市民的担忧。从前几年的地沟油,到转基因玉米再到最近的僵尸肉,食品安全关系到广大人民群众的身体健康,甚至生命安全,因此食品安全一直是中国百姓大热议话题。同样的,食品安全也代表了一个政府和国家的形象问题,因此,政府出台了很多政策和法规,但是食品安全问题一直都屡禁不止。我认为主要原因有以下几点:

一、政府监管力度不够。

无论是地沟油还是僵尸肉,如果当局政府能加大监管力度,那么那些不法分子也就无机可乘,自然,食品安全也就可以减轻许多。其实,中国出台许多和食品相关的法律制度和规范,但是,由于各部门在执行上级领导的规定或者执行法规时却大打折扣,导致许多不法分子藐视法律,敢于违背法律底线,因此,食品安全问题频发。

二、诚信道德的缺失。

做生意以“诚”为本,消费者和商家的交易是建立在诚信的基础上。但是,如今,不少商家在市场利益的诱惑下,违背了公平交易原则,甚至违背了道德底线。在不少火锅店,许多不良商家将猪血勾兑做成鸭血出售,或者将鸭脂肪加入牛肉或者猪肉里面来增加自己的利润。

中国经济在过去的几十年里取得辉煌的进步,人民群众的包裹也越来越饱满,但是,不少商家挣得却是昧良心的黑心钱。在这个物欲横流的社会,能坚守城市守信原则实在难能可贵。

明星吸毒

2014年,娱乐圈的不少明星都因吸毒被抓,从全民小鲜肉柯震东,到星二代房祖名,甚至连编剧宁财神也都纷纷因为吸毒被抓。明星,作为公众人物,他们享有更多的社会资源,也会对社会造成更大的影响,因此,明星吸毒相比其他人吸毒会对社会造成更加恶劣的影响。明星吸毒造成的负面影响有以下几点:

  • 作为吸毒者,无论是明星还是其他人,吸毒无疑都对自己的身体和心灵造成重大创伤。相比那些不吸毒的人,吸毒者会出现精神涣散,抵抗力下降,早衰等症状。在心灵上,他们也被毒品控制,因为毒瘾,有时会为了吸食毒品,做出许多违背法律和道德底线的事情。
  • 明星吸毒同样使自己的家人承担痛苦和责任,甚至要忍受其他人的嘲笑和谩骂。以星二代房祖名为例,因为自己吸毒的错误做法,作为禁毒大使的父亲成龙也要公开向群众道歉,忍受群众对自己的嘲笑。
  • 误导青少年竖立错误的价值观和社会观。对于明星来说,他们的粉丝群众主要以青少年为主。相比成年人,青少年由于缺乏社会经验和一定的辨识能力,因此,他们十分容易被错误的信息误导。尤其当自己的偶像做出一个像吸毒一样的非法行为时,青少年因为对偶像的崇拜之情,爱屋及乌,会产生错误的观点,认为这些违法的行为是可以接纳的,或者说类似吸毒这样的违法行为是流行的代表,因此许多青少年会盲目向自己的偶像学习,最终走向错误的人生道路。

Pop Tech! – Seeing is believing!

Technology has advanced much through the ages and adapted loads to the current trends. With new inventions constantly being produced to satisfy the fickle tastes of the public, something as fundamental as vision has thus been revolutionised as well. Here are some examples of how innovation has changed the way we see things:

Instagram sunglasses:

With the rise of filter usage for photo sharing on social media, this new invention known as the Instagram sunglasses are basically a pair of shades that are marketed on providing real-life filters, like the Valencia effect on Instagram. Though it has been criticised for being just a pair of boring brown tinted glasses, its popularity can easily be seen from the way it was about to reach over 1,000% of its pre-planned crowd source funding!

Night vision contact lenses:

How these contact lenses work is via Graphene – a type of carbon that reacts to photons, that is placed within the lens. As such, dark images brighten up instantly, especially in low light areas. This makes the night vision contact lenses a perfect item to use by party-goers having a late night out. Why? You can easily gauge the attractiveness of others in the clubs under the low light too! The result? No more ugly hook ups!

Virtual Omni:

From the virtual shot function of the Galaxy S6, to Samsung 3D glasses, virtual reality systems are coming into play and in trend these days. The Virtual Omni is a system that has remodelled the idea of screens everywhere. With the aid of Oculus Rift and Sixense STEM, a system that tracks body movement, people can now be fully submerged into a separate world. Imagine being able to follow the wanderlust trend of touring the world in full panoramic view – all without the need to suffer agonizing crowds or long distance travel. The system has also successfully impinged upon the gaming industry and this gives a whole new meaning to first person shooter games. If you recall those moments where you merely relied on your fingers to press the keys so your characters could duck in when they encounter danger, well those reflexes would now have to include your whole body too!

Urbanization in China

China has always boasted that the basic labor forces are the most respected and greatest people in the society, which was actually favored and supported from around the 1960s to the 1980s. Yet, as the society becomes globalized and modernized, the so called greatest labor forces are at the risk of being put aside by the society and paid much less attention than other work forces. They usually make the most efforts physically to build the society but enjoy relatively basic or even poor levels of social welfare and financial income as a whole.

Migrate workers, for instance, are among the most representative in this growing trend. They spend more than a third of their life making contributions to the community by experiencing working in different fields and industries, ending up being not eligible to reside legally in these crowded metropolis. Getting an official identity in these big cities has become so important while so difficult that they have been categorized by the local people as customary simple visitors to the cities that are vaguely focused on. Without legal identity to live in the big cities, even if they have helped urbanize the cities to the largest extent, they have to face immense troubles in their daily life, posing significant threats to their own quality of life and the future of their offspring.

Having reached the retirement age, these migrate workers can only rely on their pension to survive if they didn’t manage to accumulate enough wealth in the earlier stages of their life. For the luckiest groups of people, they choose to live in the suburbs of the cities or even in cities around to live peacefully and relatively without financial constraints and concerns for the rest of their life. Nevertheless, things do not turn out this way for the majority of these disadvantaged groups of people. To be specific, they face the problem of not enjoying legal medical coverage over their physical problems as they age since they are not legal residents in the cities. Their future generations don’t have access to tertiary education as those of local people even if they have worked hard enough to build the cities for their life.

In conclusion, while it has to be admitted that admissions and tickets available for people to be legal residents to live in big cities are limited and cannot be granted to each individual, local authorities should try to find a balance to help these people get the most out of their contributions, ensuring a sustainable and fair social system.

Case International Relations Through International Trade

International trade allows countries to expand their markets and access goods and services that otherwise may not have been available domestically. As a result of international trade, the market is more competitive. This ultimately results in more competitive pricing and brings a cheaper product home to the consumer. International trade is the exchange of goods and services between countries. Trading globally gives consumers and countries the opportunity to be exposed to goods and services not available in their own countries, or more expensive domestically. This not only avoids the inflated prices of some companies, but also makes companies in the world competitive, thereby promoting the development of the world. Although many people think that this is unfavorable for some small countries, the survival law of this world itself It is not easy, competition is the fastest way to promote the development of social science and technology. The existence of some patents also better protects the safety of major enterprise products. After all, international trade is about transparency and openness, so that not only some state officials cannot obtain illegal benefits from it, but also ensures the survival of some small and medium-sized enterprises with strong innovation. And some technologies are also used as diplomatic means by major countries, and in order to maintain their advantages in this field, there will always be a sense of crisis, which is also a major condition for social progress. Each country has its own advantages and maintains the balance of all countries in the world.
