The years have changed, so have the stars. When we enter the new century with high spirits under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, and when we look back on the arduous and tortuous road that the people of China walked in the last century, how can we not be impressed by the immortal achievements created by our predecessors in that dark age? Today, the Red Mansion stands quietly at the foot of the Snake Mountain by the Yangtze River, and pedestrians shuttle along Pengliuyang Road, Shouyiyuan, Qiyimen, Martyrs' Shrine and Chuwangtai. They bear the glorious history of rewriting the fate of the Chinese nation and silently tell people that thrilling historical past.
History can always enlighten us. From the moment the smoke dispersed, people have been exploring this history in order to learn useful lessons from it. The gunfire of Shouyi left us not only glory and pride, but also a valuable spiritual wealth-Shouyi spirit.
Today, our teachers and students come together to review this period of history and examine the various meanings left by this major historical event, which has an inestimable effect on students' future study and even growth.
The spirit of "Shouyi" embodies the patriotic spirit passed down from generation to generation by the Chinese nation. The Chinese nation has always had a tradition of patriotism, and China has never lacked heroes who plead for the people and give their lives to save others. In the face of the deep national crisis in modern times, revolutionary groups and individual heroes have emerged in large numbers, and the stars are bright. The revolutionaries have embarked on the historical stage with ardent patriotic feelings. They don't care about personal gains and losses, care about everyone at home and join the revolutionary torrent. Today, we should accomplish the great cause of the reunification of our ancestors, hold high this banner and unite the wisdom and strength of the people of China. To realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, patriotism is needed as a source of strength. Students should not only recall history and cherish the memory of the martyrs, but more importantly, they should understand the responsibilities shouldered by the descendants of the Yellow Emperor, pass on the spirit of rejuvenating China, and turn it into the spiritual driving force for constantly improving and developing themselves, constantly rejuvenating and strengthening the motherland, and jointly building a better future.
The spirit of "Shouyi" is more prominent in the spirit of innovation and reform. The Revolution of 1911 was an epoch-making innovation and reform, which raised the banner of democracy and harmony for the first time in the history of China. China has practiced absolute monarchy for thousands of years since it was recorded in writing.
After thousands of years of indoctrination and edification, preaching such as "the program of the monarch and the minister" seems to be a matter of course, and even a little skeptical thoughts are "outrageous." It is difficult to get rid of such a heavy tradition and propose to replace the monarchy with another political system. Although the road was full of difficulties and obstacles, the revolutionaries persisted and persevered, and finally achieved the goal of innovation. These may seem inconspicuous today, but they did have shocking power at that time. "The world doesn't dare to do it for me, and the world won't send me to start", which is the spirit of innovation and reform of "Dare to be the first in the world". This spirit is explosive and original, and it is a valuable humanistic spirit. Innovation is the soul of a nation's progress, the inexhaustible motive force for a country's prosperity and the source of the continuous progress of human society. Today, the key to rejuvenating the country through science and education and realizing social sustainable development lies in deepening reform and continuous innovation. This also requires students to adhere to innovative ideas, not only to master what is known in books, but also to master the ability to understand what they don't know, to be good at asking questions, to boldly question, to dare to break through the original shackles, to dare to challenge their own limitations, and to create achievements that predecessors and others have not achieved.
The spirit of "Shouyi" is always permeated with tenacious struggle spirit. On the eve of Wuchang Shouyi, reactionaries slaughtered many revolutionaries. Heroes "looked strong" when they were executed, and made public speeches, willing to "die for 400 million compatriots" and calling on everyone to "rise up for revolution" for "China will never see autocracy again". From the end of June, 65438 to+10, the defending war in Wuhan lasted for a long time, killing more than 2,600 people, which bought time for the provinces in China to respond to the revolution, and embodied the heroic spirit of revolutionaries who struggled hard and were not afraid of sacrifice. Struggle is a spirit. Only by struggling can life shine brilliantly. Only by working hard can the potential of wisdom be brought into play; Only through hard work can we realize our lofty ideals. Students still have a long way to go in their future study and growth. In every corner of life, they need to have fighting spirit. No one's life track is Ma Pingchuan. When faced with bumps and difficulties, we should choose to give up and escape or face difficulties. Making a choice is usually just a matter of thought. At this moment, what we need is Wuchang Shouyi's tenacious fighting spirit.
Qu Yuan, a great patriotic poet, said, "The road is long, but it's Xiu Yuan. I'll go up and down." Sun Yat-sen also said, "The revolution has not yet succeeded, and comrades still have to work hard." Comrade Mao Zedong even earnestly said to young students, "The world is yours and ours, but in the final analysis it is yours. You young people are full of vigor and vitality, in the prime of life, like the sun at eight or nine o'clock in the morning. Hope is pinned on you. "
After 96 years of vicissitudes, the wind has disappeared, but what can't be dispersed is the spirit of eternal righteousness. We are here today to commemorate in this intuitive way, not only to remember that glorious history, but also to take a warning:
Students, when historic opportunities and social changes have arrived, when you are about to face major challenges in life, are you ready?
