网友纷纷感叹,“10岁的小朋友,英文也太好了!”
戳视频,看小朋友的精彩演讲
这位“别人家的孩子”名叫王梓一,去年在“21世纪杯”全国总决选勇夺小高组冠军。
梓一的爸爸出生在武汉,家里很多亲戚也住在武汉,疫情期间,梓一家中7位亲人都成了志愿者,他们接送患者去医院,运送食物和水,竭尽所能地提供帮助。
通过这个演讲,小小的他想告诉大家——哪怕没办法作为医护人员救死扶伤,每一个平凡的人也都可以是英雄。

始于快乐,历经悲伤离散,终回日常

1月中旬,大家都很期待春节的到来,此时距离过节只有10天左右。一些亲戚计划去温暖的海南旅游,一些准备采购年货,还有一些打算去拜访远亲。

我们谁也没意识到等待我们的是什么。

我们从没想到2020成了如此特殊的一年

1月23日,新闻里突然播报一种神秘病毒,我们现在称其为新型冠状病毒。这种病毒传染性极强,感染病毒者可能会病重甚至身亡。

那个时刻,武汉被按下了“暂停”键。整个城市都被隔离了。

你们的口罩够吗
医院的检测盒够吗?
天,我刚听说我的邻居感染了。
春节本应是发红包的时候,此时群里发出的却是焦虑和担忧。

武汉成了一座寂静的城市
“快乐大家庭”变成了一个沉默的群组

云阿姨在群里发信。告诉我们她的邻居刚因冠状病毒去世。邻居年仅48岁,平时非常健康。怎么一个好好的生命就这样消逝了呢?

我们开始焦虑害怕,接着群里一片沉寂,没有人说话。武汉成了一座寂静的城市,“快乐大家庭”变成了一个沉默的群组。

正能量打破沉默
几天以后,彭阿姨的一条消息打破了大家的沉默。她是一名基层工作者,疫情爆发后一直在社区服务,做环境卫生的安全监测工作。

彭阿姨的事情鼓舞了我们,但她的丈夫郝叔叔却很担心。然而三天后,受到鼓舞的郝叔叔开始帮助云阿姨。他正式成为这个家庭的第一个志愿者。他接送患者去医院,运送食物和水,竭尽所能地提供帮助。

几天后,云阿姨的父亲也加入战“疫”。他挨家挨户地帮忙检查市民的体温,确保感染的患者可以得到及时救治。

他注意到前线的医生和护士吃饭成问题,于是他报名参加了一个志愿服务项目,为医务人员做饭。以此表达对医务人员的感激,并为辛勤工作的他们加油打气。

看到战胜疫情的曙光
家庭群回归往日活力
很快,两所紧急医院和更多隔离中心在武汉建成。在医务人员和志愿者的不懈努力下,众多患者被精心照料,重获健康,无数生命被挽救。情况开始好转。我们看到战胜疫情的曙光。

目前为止,我家有七人成为志愿者。但我的家人只是武汉数十万家庭中的一员,他们都在尽自己的一份力量让武汉好起来。

回想一下,我们居家隔离76天,也就是1800多个小时的难熬时光。中国数亿人严格遵守隔离政策来对抗病毒。但是武汉人民做出了最大的牺牲,为了避免我们陷入最坏的情况。

我们看到的这些数据,不仅仅是冰冷的数字,它们象征着我们心情的跌宕起伏,代表着无数家庭离散和心碎的故事,它们更象征着团结的力量。没有武汉的牺牲和社会各界的共同努力,战“疫”就不会有现在的成就。

现在新冠病毒已经成为全球性的大流行病,它还远远没有被战胜。我们开始关心其他国家人们的战斗。即使在中国,新冠病毒之战仍然没有结束。但我相信胜利即将来临。到那时,我希望所有人都能来武汉,尝尝美味的热干面,爬上黄鹤楼和家人朋友一起来几张搞笑自拍。我坚信武汉将从震荡中平复,一切都将回归日常。
