一颦一笑百媚生，一招一式真功夫。近日，涪陵外国语学校九年级语文组组织了学生戏曲表演活动，同学们自编自导，自演自唱，妥妥的过了一把戏瘾。既有对经典的传承，也有自由发挥的搞笑，在同学们紧张的学习之余轻松一刻，效果事半功倍。

Recently, the Chinese Group of Grade 9 in Fuling Foreign Language School organized an opera performance for students. The students wrote, directed and sang their own operas and enjoyed the play. The performance was a mixture of classical heritage and free-spirited hilarity, allowing students to relax after a stressful day of study and yield twice the result with half the effort.

人生如戏，戏如人生。戏剧故事，凝聚百态人生；舞台人物，折射多样人格。我们观赏戏剧节目时，看到演员们精湛的表演技能，往往情不自禁地鼓掌喝彩。然而“台上一分钟，台下十年功”，演员精彩的表演来自台下精心的排练。同学们通过课本学习，掌握了戏剧的基本要素，然后经过精心准备与排练，一句句台词，一个个场景，一个个鲜活形象，终于与观众见面了。

译：Life is like a drama, and a drama is originated from life. The story of a play condenses the vicissitudes of life; the characters on stage reflect the diversity of personalities. When we watch a drama programme, we can't help but applaud the actors' superb performance skills. However, as the old saying goes, “One minute on stage takes ten years of practise off stage.” The wonderful performance of the actors came from the elaborate rehearsals. The students learned the basic elements of the drama through the textbook, and then after careful preparation and rehearsal, they presented wonderful lines, scenes and vivid images for the audience.

清水出芙蓉，天然去雕饰。演出前，同学们没有过多的排场，只有用心的准备。演出时，同学们没有过多的粉饰，只有全情的投入。戏曲文化，源远流长，异彩纷呈，让我们为梦想插上腾飞的翅膀，在知识的海洋徜徉！

译：Natural and refreshing like lotus rising out of water. Before the performance, the students did not have too much ostentation but only careful preparation. During the performance, the students did not get the excessive pomposity but full engagement. In a word, Chinese traditional opera culture has a distant origin and a long development. May our dreams and wishes fly high with soaring wings and roam freely in the ocean of knowledge!
