2024年11月4日清晨，上海市宏润博源高级中学迎来了十一月份的第一次升旗仪式。这一天，天空明净如洗，阳光透过轻薄的云层洒在学校操场上，给整个校园披上了一层金色的光辉。全校师生齐聚操场，以最庄重的姿态，共同见证这一神圣时刻。

On the morning of November 4, 2024, SHBS welcomed the first flag-raising ceremony of November. On this day, the sky was clear, with sunlight streaming through thin clouds onto the school playground, casting a golden glow over the entire campus. Teachers and students gathered solemnly on the playground, witnessing this sacred moment together.

升旗仪式在庄严的国歌声中拉开序幕，鲜艳的五星红旗伴随着激昂的旋律缓缓升起，飘扬在蔚蓝的天空下。这一刻，无论是老师还是学生，心中都涌动着强烈的爱国情感和荣誉感。

The flag-raising ceremony began with the solemn national anthem playing. The bright red flag slowly rose accompanied by an inspiring melody, fluttering under the azure sky. At this moment, whether teachers or students, strong feelings of patriotism and honor surged in their hearts.

随后，学生代表吴同学Thea站在国旗下，发表了题为“面对挑战，成就更好的自己”的演讲。她将生活比作攀爬高山的过程，指出在这条路上，挑战无处不在，它们既是前进道路上的障碍，也是检验个人意志和能力的试金石。“面对挑战，我们首先要有勇气。”她强调，勇气并非无所畏惧，而是在恐惧面前仍能坚定前行的决心。这不仅是对正在面对大学申请的十二年级学长学姐的鼓励，也是对全体在校生的鞭策。智慧源于不断的学习和实践，每一次面对困难时的深思熟虑、每一次解决问题后的总结反思，都是智慧增长的过程。为了证明这一点，她提到了最近学校组织的万圣节活动，不仅保留了传统元素，还融入了大量的创新设计，比如采用沉浸式的剧情来串联整个活动流程，极大地提升了参与者的体验感。这不仅是对学生创造力的一种锻炼，也是智慧运用的具体表现。

Subsequently, student representative Thea stood beneath the national flag and delivered a speech titled "Facing Challenges, Achieving a Better Self". She likened life to climbing a mountain, pointing out that challenges are everywhere on this path, serving as both obstacles on the journey forward and touchstones to test individual willpower and capabilities. "When facing challenges, we must first have courage" she emphasized. Courage is not the absence of fear but the determination to persevere in the face of fear. This encouragement is not only for the seniors facing university applications but also a motivation for all current students. Wisdom comes from continuous learning and practice, with thoughtful consideration during difficult times and reflective analysis after problem-solving being steps towards wisdom growth. To illustrate this point, she mentioned a recent Halloween event organized by the school, which not only retained traditional elements but also incorporated innovative designs, such as using immersive storytelling to connect the entire event flow, greatly enhancing participants' experience. This not only serves as an exercise in students' creativity but also a concrete manifestation of applying wisdom.

此外，她还强调了团队合作的价值。就在前不久，学校代表队在2024iGEM国际遗传工程机器挑战赛中取得了优异的成绩，荣获一枚全球金奖和三枚全球银奖。这份荣誉背后，是参赛队员们无数个日夜的努力和汗水，更是他们勇于挑战、善于合作、敢于创新的真实写照。

Furthermore, she emphasized the value of teamwork. Not long ago, the school's representative team achieved excellent results in the 2024 iGEM International Genetic Engineering Machine Challenge, winning 1 global gold award and 3 global silver awards. Behind this honor are the countless efforts and sweat of the team members, showcasing their courage to challenge, ability to cooperate, and willingness to innovate.

每月的升旗仪式不仅是一次爱国主义教育的机会，更是一堂生动的人生哲理课。它提醒每一位宏润博源学校的学子，无论未来道路多么坎坷，只要拥有足够的勇气、智慧以及团队合作的精神，就没有什么是不可能克服的。让我们一起勇敢地迎接每一个挑战，用实际行动书写属于自己的精彩篇章。

The monthly flag-raising ceremony is not only an opportunity for patriotic education yet also a vibrant lesson in life philosophy. It reminds every student at SHBS that no matter how rough the future path may be, as long as they have enough courage, wisdom, and spirit of teamwork, there is nothing that cannot be overcome. Let us bravely face every challenge together and write our own splendid chapters with practical actions.
