在进入金山世外的一年半以来，最让我意外、感动的就是金山世外老师的用心与负责。无论是课上准备充分的课堂，亦或是课外帮助同学解难答疑，这让作为同学的我感到十分放心。放心的不是自己的智商，而是在老师带领下进步的信心。还记得刚进校时，由于自认为与别的同学的差距甚大，总是感到慌张，在老师的帮助下，经过一年多的磨练，我终于成功丢弃了入学时的我。包括全宿制的学习生活，起初因为来到陌生地带十分不安的我，现在已将学校看作第二个家。
我的学习生活是校园生活的一部分，另一部分则是令人激情澎湃的校园活动。每一学期金山世外都会举办大大小小的活动，有各种节日庆祝、小比赛、社团、娱乐小游戏等等。而我经常参加这些活动，总是有站上舞台展现自我的机会，真是多滋多彩的校园生活啊。
During one and a half years after I entered Jinshan, the most incredible and moving thing was the intention and responsibility of Jinshan Foreign language school teachers. Well-prepared classes and helping students solve problems outside the class make me feel relieved. It is not relieved of my IQ but the confidence to get progress with the leading of teachers. I still remember that when I first entered this school, I felt that I was panicked because I thought my classmates were all better than me. With the help of my teachers, finally, I managed to discard me of the pass after one year.
My study life is one part of campus life, and the other part is a passionate campus event. In every semester, Jinshan World Foreign Language School holds many activities, including various festival celebrations, small competitions, clubs, entertainment games and so on. And I participated lots of activities and had many opportunities to stand on the stage to show my capability to everyone. For me, it is really a wonderful campus life.

在金外的三年我想用三个词来总结：奋斗，成长，感恩。
奋斗
作为出国班的同学，我们似乎更多次站在选择的岔路口。不同于国内班同学有着一致的高考倒计时和共同学习的氛围，出国班的我们每个人都需要规划属于自己的学习安排。无数个放弃休息日泡着语培机构的日子依旧历历在目，曾经觉得难啃的单词如今已经深深地刻在了心里，为了获得更高的GPA也成为过数学办公室的常客。这三年里每一个努力的瞬间成就了现在的我。
成长
在金山世外的三年，我在获得了书本知识的同时，更是增长了见识、经验和自我挑战的机会。想要成长便需要挑战未知。在这三年里，初试英语辩论的我和伙伴们拿下过冠军；校园商赛、CTB挑战赛也获得了傲人的成绩；作为曾经班上的宣传委员，还为整个年级设计过运动会的级服。每一次尝试都在拓宽我对自己和世界的认知，每一次新的尝试都是成长。
感恩
作为金外的首届学子，我们从刚入学就被给予了各界的厚望，因此也享受到了学校为我们带来的福利：良好的硬件设施和资源。三年的学习生活中，我也一改对老师们的固有印象——原来亦师亦友在这里是可以实现的！
由于2020年的新冠疫情，我选择放弃原本申请到的学校gap一年重新申请。即便我已经毕业且新一届的counselor对我完全不了解，但是从我提出请求至提交申请完毕的全过程中，受托的counselor和写推荐信的
老师们给予了我全力的配合。最终我也收获了曼荷莲女子学院心理学专业的offer。在此我想感谢孙静老师、束晗俊老师和金晓明老师。

金山世外不仅在课堂内有着一支强大的教师团队，在课外更是以精彩纷呈的活动为特色。在金山世外就读的这一年半的时间里，让我感触最深的首先就是我们能够和老师成为很好的朋友。在托福和SAT的巨大压力面前，我们可能会疲惫，会想放弃，但是正是由于有着一群和我们为了同一个目标而拼搏的良师益友们，我们才得以在一波又一波困难的浪潮中挺了过来。在课外活动方面，我们会定期举办每年一次的英语节，那时是我们尽情绽放自我的舞台。同时，金山世外也给了每个学生充分体验和成长的平台，例如由学生自主创办的社团、英语演讲比赛、读书分享会、每周的升旗仪式主持人等等，都是学生们锻炼自我的良好机会。在金外就读的时光，是充实而又美好的。
JinShan World Foreign Language School is an superb school which has the harmonious atmosphere for students. The goal of our school is to cultivate the self-disciplined abilities of students. In our school, you “have to” stay with your classmates for almost a whole day. As a result, we gradually learned how to cooperate with our friends. Actually, our friends are people who understand you the most because we face the same troubles. During the time I stayed in our school, I realized that I cannot confront those difficulties on my own. Moreover, I felt the warmness and courage that my teachers and friends gave to me. In addition, the various activities are one of the features of our school as well such as Spelling Bee, English speech, English debate, and so on. Although those activities let us experience the tough tasks, but we still got a lot from them. I became to be the girl who dares to express herself in another foreign language in front of people. Consequently, Jinshan WFLS did me a tremendous favor to grow up rapidly.

其实在进入金山世外的这段日子里，我真的成长了很多。从一个中考落榜的差生到金外的学生会主席，谁能想到我有如今的蜕变。刚进入校园的时候，我带着自卑与不满，但慢慢地同学们和老师们感化着我，我渐渐觉得这里才是我真正的家，有我施展才能的天地。我决定从平日的学习，生活，以及英语学习上苦下功夫。渐渐地，时间一点点的过去，我变得成熟稳重，在学习上下苦功、在生活上坚定作风、在活动中崭露头角。老师更加信任我，给我更多发挥的机会。在学生会方面，我渐渐将做事风格变得更加简练，直戳要害，这是我入校以来对自己最满意的一点。出国的同学总要经历托福，SAT，在这过程中，无论是老师给予的帮助，以及我们自身的努力，都一步步带领我们向前走。的确，在某一科中遇到瓶颈非常难过，但在这里度过的这段日子使我明白，我能做好，有许多人正为我骄傲。
In fact, I really learned a lot during the period when I entered WFLS Jinshan. From an autism student who failed in the middle school entrance examination to the president of Student Union, who can imagine my shift today? When I first got involved in the campus, I was feeling inferior and dissatisfied, but slowly my classmates and teachers inspired me. I gradually felt that this is my real home, where I can exert my talents. I decided to work assiduously on my daily working, life and English study. Gradually, as time went by, I became mature and steady. I worked hard in my studies, did steadfastly in my life, and emerged in several activities. Teachers trust me more and give me more opportunities to preform my talent. In the student union, I gradually become more concise and direct, which is my most satisfactory point since I entered school. Students who go abroad always experience TOEFL and SAT tests. In these processes, no matter the help from teachers or our own efforts, they will lead us forward step by step. Indeed, it is very arduous to encounter bottlenecks in a certain subject, but the time I spent here has made me understand that I can do well, and many people are proud of me.

记得刚刚初中毕业的自己还并不能很好得融入住宿制的学习方式，我每天盼望的不是博得一个好的成绩，而是天天想着回家，想着玩手机，为此还掉过好几次的眼泪甚至有过辍学回家的念头，好在有老师的帮助下渐渐的我适应了这种生活，这才开始了我的高中生涯。
在金外，学习是全方位的，是立体的，是超乎学科学习范畴的。时间管理，从一开始不知道如何利用，到高三已经能够抓住一切空隙学习。日常生活，跟着学校规定走，不心存侥幸。心态调控，克服焦虑，直到这次春考我才大概摸索出如何保持平常心。
在金外，是没有人会成为盲点，每一个人都是焦点。高二分班，从大班上课到小班教学，让我一下子就感受到了什么叫做“聚焦”，上课被点名回答问题的次数几何级增长，下课被老师面批的频率明显增加。还有背不出就不能回家的周五，从叫苦连天到逐渐适应，相信这份苦的价值会最终体现在高考的分数上。除了学习，我们每个人也是校园舞台的焦点，每个人都主持过升旗仪式，每个人都担任至少一个以上的学生工作职位等。
在金外，不仅仅有严格，更有关爱。记得在高二生物和地理的等级考前动员，胡老师和我们班级11个家长为我们准备的一段视频，家长们纷纷在视频中为自己的孩子加油鼓励展望等。我看着父母给自己的寄语，眼眶真的不禁就湿润了，感动化作了动力，让我们元气满满地步入考场。
最后我想分享下应考心态。春考前的那一天其实我是发着低烧的，考前的那天晚上我额头上还贴着冰贴，那时候差不多是放弃春考了，唯一的期望只想把英语考好。说实话那次是我从小大到唯一一次不怎么紧张的考试，但却超常发挥了！真是无心插柳柳成荫啊。我一直在想着春考对于我来说到底意味着什么，今天得到了答案——是对自己三年来学习的交代。高考是人生一个重要的的里程碑，但考进自己理想的大学不是人生的终点。郑校曾说过，即便没有考上好的大学，但至少我们好好学习了。学习是一辈子的事情，只要有一颗恒心，我相信没有什么可以阻挡金外的学生。现在我虽然已经拿到了预录取的通知单，但我相信我们班绝对会有同学考上更好的大学！我相信在高考考场上，我们班级一定会有黑马！为了这个目标，我们用尽全力，不断拼搏，流汗流泪，这些都将成为我们青春最美好的回忆。
