On the road, let your youth fly
——Interview2010Summer Social Practice "Excellent Achievement Award" Team
Reporter Liu Xinxin
w88 casino2010The commendation conference for summer social practice activities has come to an end. Among the many practice groups, there is such a team that won three awards: the practice group collectively won the "Excellent Achievement Award", the team leader Chen Yinglei won the title of "Top 100", and the two Korean student members Kim Deok-ho and Kim Cheol-hee won the "Brilliant Writing Award". What kind of hard work enabled them to turn around so brilliantly? The reporter approached the summer social practice group "Research on the Current Situation of Chinese Language Promotion for Foreigners in Large International Communities in Beijing - Taking Koreans in Wangjing Area as an Example" to learn about the story behind the honor.
Difficulties abound
"You obviously saw two Koreans standing in the store and wanted to interview them, but they said in very poor Chinese, 'Sorry, there are no Koreans here.'" Chen Yinglei, the leader of the practice team, told reporters with a bit of laughter and tears about the various difficulties encountered during the investigation. The difficulties in practice were something the team members had not expected before. In the hot summer, it often happens that when I visit 20 or 30 companies in the Wangjing area, I can only send out two or three questionnaires. Most people who do not cooperate with the investigation will politely refuse, but some will show extreme impatience. "But since we have chosen this practice, we must persist. It is not our choice to retreat." Although her tone was indifferent, it was not difficult to see the stubborn and persistent work attitude of the girl in front of her.
The road to Wangjing witnessed the progress of the members
Think small and win unexpectedly
Whenever he thinks of the team members racking their brains and making plans, Chen Yinglei will smile knowingly. "Do you know how we sent out the first large batch of flyers? It all relied on an electronic dictionary." She said with a smile. In the early stages of the activity, the survey work was not going smoothly, and the sending and receiving of questionnaires was repeatedly frustrated. Just when everyone was frowning, Yue Qiang in the team suddenly remembered that he had bought an electronic dictionary sold by a Korean company some time ago, and he might be able to find a breakthrough there. Just as he was told, Yue Qiang immediately called the sales staff and tried his best to contact the sales manager. With the help of the sales manager, they quickly distributed and collected nearly twenty questionnaires, and also conducted an interview on the situation of Korean employees in the company learning Chinese. This achievement is like the rain after a long drought, which lifts everyone's spirits.
Not afraid of difficulties, but because of unity
Looking back on this unforgettable practice, every team member mentioned one word in their summary, that is "collective". However, those who participated in this practical activity14Many of the team members did not know each other before. They formed this team across grades, colleges, and even borders. What allowed the originally unfamiliar team members to accept each other and form a tacit understanding in a short period of time? "At the beginning of the practice, the team leader and I would send text messages to the team members every day, reminding them to pay attention to small things such as weather conditions and bringing umbrellas when going out. By paying attention to such small details, we gradually made everyone identify with the team." Chen Yinglei said with pride: "Usually there are two results when encountering difficulties. One is that everyone loses morale and the work can no longer be carried out. The other is that everyone is united more closely and becomes more indestructible. And we are definitely the latter."
Abandon the questionnaire and seek truth from facts
"In our questionnaires, the first and last questions have a reverse setting. If the two questions in some questionnaires have the same answer, it means that the questionnaire is filled out perfunctorily and has no value as reference data. We will never falsify and fabricate data for the sake of good results, but seek truth from facts and do social practice in a down-to-earth manner." Chen Yinglei said firmly.
Talking about everyone’s work attitude, Chen Yinglei couldn’t help but praise every member of the practice team. She mentioned that Liu Xiaokai completed nearly 10 years of work by himself.70%never complained about the data compilation task. He talked about the Korean student Jin Zhexi who carefully considered the translation of the questionnaire. He talked about Jin Dehao fanning his teammates while walking under the hot sun. He talked about Yu Mengmeng’s eloquence and Zhang Mengzhu’s hard work...
Multiple investigations and striving for perfection
Social practice is the first experience of becoming mature. Faced with many difficulties, they rise to the challenge; social practice is the first journey out of the ivory tower, and they move forward bravely when they first enter a complicated society. The emotion of sharing the joys and sorrows, the strength when there is nothing to do, the pride after overcoming difficulties, and the reflection when reviewing practice... In this practice, every team member gained something and grew up, and they all used social practice as a ladder to move towards a broader stage.
