2018年還有一批來自國際高中的小記者們，他們追隨老師完成他們感興趣的課題，并集結(jié)成文章，分享給更多的人。在他們的文章中，我們看到了他們對課題研究的嚴(yán)謹(jǐn)和熱情，看到了他們對未來的向往與憧憬，也看到了這群“新新人類”對于宏大命題的認(rèn)知與思考。在此擇選其中的一部分，與大家共賞，既為勉勵(lì)后來者，也為激勵(lì)同行者。

The Role of Grassland Route and Desert Route of the Silk Road

菁英小記者：張子兮

One of the world's most ancient and historically important trade routes， the Silk Road conjures up exotic images of camel caravans， windswept deserts. Extending as far as the Indian kingdoms in the west， to present-day Xian in China in the east， the Silk Road was already a crossroad of Asia by the third century B.C. Recent archaeological discoveries across China indicate that silk production technology has developed to a fairly high level from the Shang Dynasty and warring states periods. Nowadays， China's silk goods are still one of the most important products that China has devoted to the people of the world.

The Silk trade road serves as a highway connecting China， Southern， Western and central Asia， in the Han Dynasty . According to new archaeological data， further spread to the west Mediterranean and Asia minor， determines the basic connotation of the silk road， i.e. it is the ancient China through nearly the whole ancient world， the land trade communication channel paving a lot of Chinesegoods， is so called" silk road ".

Differences of Attribution between Males and Females

菁英小記者：李雙彤

Much research has established that causal attributions differ cross culturally. A classic finding is that Americans are prone to make fundamental attribution errors， whereas Chinese， Indians and Koreans are more likely to attend to situations （Morris peng， shweder）

The proposed mechanism： implicit theories that is present in American vs. Chinese society. Because Americans are more independent， so they are more likely to see individuals as agents. While Chinese are more interdependent （markus&kitayama）， so they are more likely to see holistic influences on peoples behavior.

Given this， one related question is that how gender affects our understanding of the causes of male and females action. There is significantly less research on this subject. Indeed， the answer may exist， but it has not been analyzed. For instance， Morris and Pengs classic paper doesnt report the number of males and females surveyed in US and China or their likelihood to follow particular attribution patterns.

Globalization-Beneficial or Harmful

菁英小記者：黃方睿

Globalization has been the common trend all around the world in the contemporary society， affecting many peoples lives differently. It is undeniable that globalization has some benefits， but it indeed carries out more negatives than its positive outcomes， which is the reason for me to regard globalization as a bad thing happening to the world at present.

闖蕩好萊塢的華人女導(dǎo)演管曦：用鏡頭，凝視這世間

對話人：管曦

“我對電影的熱忱是從小培養(yǎng)起來的，各種類型的電影加起來看了快幾千部，不過直到后來接觸到伯格曼和桑戴爾，比如《第七封印》和《西岸故事》，才直接影響我決定從一個(gè)單純的電影愛好者變成制作人，選擇去南加大深造?！?/p>

有時(shí)候管曦看上去似乎具有雙重人格，她的一部分是舞臺上的表演者，在追光中講述人生悲歡；她的另一部分卻是站在幕后的旁觀者，微蹙著眉頭斟酌演員的動(dòng)作神態(tài)—這是一個(gè)既浪漫又清醒的姑娘，于她而言，一個(gè)鏡頭，就是隔開理想與現(xiàn)實(shí)的一窗扇。

Family Background Influence—Effects on Individuals' Educated Aspirations

菁英小記者：陳雨茗

Two writings gave me a deeper understanding of the influence of family on education： Ann Hulberts “ Re-education Chinese higher Ed reform” and Brook Larmers “Inside a Chinese Test-Prep Factory”. Both articles discuss the Chinese education system and how parents decisions make differences for their kids. In Hulberts article， although Meijie didnt get a high mark in Harvard， they were still proud of her， its made clear when the author writes， "Her parents had stood by， a little stunned， as their intrepid daughter won distinction in an unusual way， by accomplishing all kinds of things outside of the classroom.” It reveals that Meijies parents are open-minded and always support their daughter. They didnt put grades as the most important factor to measure their child. This kind of good family education helped Meijie to get higher achievements.

Different kinds of resources on Chinese high school students anxiety

菁英小記者：劉羽茜

‘Life always makes us black and blue， but those painful things will make us stronger until we came through. Hemingway once wrote. Nonetheless， is this true？ Perhaps we do recover from pain but sometimes it could kill us. As for a typical high school student in an elite school in China， I feel anxiety everywhere. The pressure from classmates， teachers， parents and even from friends could easily turn something small into a serious issue. This kind of issue will finally lead to negative emotions that strongly affect students academic behaviors and attitudes toward lives. In fact， this situation is being more and more prevalent among todays Chinese high school students.

Examining the Role Globalization Had on Chinas Air Quality and Chinas Response to Air Pollution

菁英小記者：許楚怡（Katherine）

Air pollution has become a serious environmental problem around the world， especially in China. In the past， air pollutants usually came from natural disasters， such as volcano eruption. Now， however， most of the air pollutants are generated by human activities， especially from the industrial process. Therefore， it is safe to say that air pollution is a by-product of industrialization. Since industrialization is inter-linked with globalization， many blamed globalization as the primary reason for air pollution.

Since I am interested in how globalization could affect a developing country??s air quality， I immediately thought of China as a great example to be investigated. China has the world second largest gross domestic product （GDP）； in the meantime， it is still a developing country. I expect that the efforts China has put into development would make China a representative country capable of demonstrating the effect globalization has on a country??s air quality.
