“初中时拥有了自行车
去县城走读”
“冬天脚上长满冻疮,
夏天暴雨打湿衣服”
“大学时勤工俭学,
靠自己负担了全部学费、生活费”
……
近日,一份毕业论文的致谢引发了网友关注,其作者是来自南京大学的陈时鑫。陈时鑫在致谢中回顾了自己求学路上的艰辛,字里行间的情感令人动容。
A graduate from Nanjing University caught the attention of Chinese social media with his touching "acknowledgement" to his thesis in which he reflected on his challenging road to success.
网友们形容这是当代的《送东阳马生序》,这段故事让人感慨。
书本中的知识,
让我的眼睛变得明亮
陈时鑫是南京大学电子科学与工程学院的一名大四毕业生。去年,他收到了香港中文大学计算机系全额奖学金直博录取通知书。今年8月入学后,他将在芯片自动化设计领域深造。
Chen Shixin graduated from the School of Electronic Science and Engineering at Nanjing University this year, and received a full-award direct degree offer from the Department of Computer Science at the Chinese University of Hong Kong earlier last year. He will pursue further studies in the field of chip automation design after joining CUHK this August.
1999年,陈时鑫出生在四川凉山州冕宁县的一个小村庄。小时候,陈时鑫的父亲外出打工,他就会帮家里一起做农活。
Chen was born in a small village in Mianning county, in Liangshan Yi autonomous prefecture, Sichuan province in 1999. When he was young, he often helped the family with farm work while his dad was away.
农活之余,他利用一切时间读书,如他自己所说:“高海拔的阳光,让我的皮肤变得黝黑,但书本中的知识,让我的眼睛变得明亮。”
刻苦的陈时鑫,考入了县城的中学,而为了省钱,他就骑着自行车往返于家中和学校。冬天的时候,他脚上受冻长了冻疮,手裂开甚至出血。
After enrolling in junior high, he slept at home in order to save money, and rode a bike more than ten kilometers to and from school every day. This was particularly hard during winters when his hands and feet cracked and bled from the cold.
面对这些,陈时鑫却说,少儿时期的经历,磨砺了他的意志。
初中毕业的陈时鑫终于走出了大山,他以优异的成绩考入成都一所重点高中。环境的变化,令陈时鑫难以适应,“刚到时,和同学差距不是一点点”。不过他依然保持着自己的初心,生活上还保持着节俭的习惯,吃食堂最便宜的饭,也不买零食。在经历了短暂的消沉后,陈时鑫在抓紧一切机会学习,他用学长学姐用过的辅导教材,向每一个人学习。不出意外,他的成绩逐渐稳定,多次拿到年级第一名。
Later, Chen was admitted to a key high school in Chengdu with excellent grades. There, he continued living frugally, buying the cheapest set meal in the school canteen, forgoing tasty snacks and fancy drinks. He picked up the tutorial books discarded by his seniors, and studied every one of them carefully. Not surprisingly, he was ranked first in his grade many times.
别人帮助我在我心中种下了善良的种子,
我要将爱心传递
2018年,陈时鑫考入了南京大学,专业是集成电路设计与集成系统。“立自强志,强中国芯”一直是他的信念。
而在4年的本科期间,他获得了不少证书和奖金。而正是靠着奖学金和勤工俭学所得,陈时鑫支付了自己的学费和生活费。
Chen Shixin entered Nanjing University in 2018, majoring in integrated circuit design and integrated systems. During his four years at university, he has won many scholarships and certificates. With part-time jobs and scholarships, he has been able to pay for his tuition and living expenses.
在校期间,陈时鑫还是个积极的志愿者。他和同学们为山区学生教课教学。每次回到家乡,都会辅导孩子们的功课,帮助他们考上中学。“别人帮助我在我心中种下了善良的种子。等我有能力的时候,我也会帮助他人,将这份爱心传递”。他说,未来自己学业有成那一天,必将加倍努力回馈家乡。
When he was at university, Chen Shixin was an active volunteer. He and his classmates gave lectures and guidance to rural students in mountainous areas. Every time he returned to his hometown, he volunteered to tutor children from the village, and helped many of them get into secondary schools.
“比起求学的坎坷和努力,我更希望有一天,能因为自己的学业和成就,而得到关注。”
为不断奋斗的青春,
加油!
