In this episode of "Five Minutes Chinese," I share the excitement and significance of prom night, a cherished tradition for American high school students. I recount my experience of volunteering at our school's prom, from the meticulous preparations to the elegant attire and the joyous atmosphere created by photographers and DJs. I also reveal the heartfelt story behind my special yellow dress, a gift from my students, marking our seven-year journey from middle school to graduation. As I reflect on their growth and bid them farewell, I express both nostalgia and optimism for their bright futures.

大家好,欢迎收听新一期的《五分钟中文》!毕业季又到了。今天是星期六,也是我们学校的prom。那大家如果不是生活在美国的话,可能对Prom这个词不太了解,不知道是什么活动。Prom呢,简单地说就是高中毕业舞会。高中毕业舞会一般由高中三年级和高中四年级的毕业生可以参加。因为这个是毕业前最后一次盛大的活动,所以在美国的高中生的眼里,这个可能是他们高中生涯最重要的一次舞会。所以在Prom(高中毕业舞会)上,大家都会精心准备,盛装出席:女生会穿很漂亮的裙子,然后他们也会提前做头发呀,化妆啊,打扮得漂漂亮亮的。男生可能容易一点,但是男生也是会精心打扮,挑选很漂亮的、很笔挺的西装来参加毕业舞会。如果你有男/女朋友,当然是和自己的男女朋友一起来参加了。


我们学校每年的毕业舞会都会选在市中心的一个场所。然后精心地设计,精心地布置。也会请摄影师,也会请DJ来给大家创造一个非常快乐,非常让人激动的这样一个夜晚吧!我每年都是选择来prom帮忙。我今年也是。所以我是6:30出门吧,然后我的shift(就是我的班)是第一班,从6:30出门,然后现在回来差不多有两个多小时吧。我就是在那边帮忙check in,帮忙给学生做一些签到的工作。然后看他们开开心心地就挺好的。


今年的毕业晚会有一个很重要的事:就是我穿了一条很特别的黄裙子。黄裙子我其实也有别的,那这一条为什么这么特别呢?因为这一条是学生送给我的。今年的毕业班里很多学生是我从六年级就开始教了。我们在一起一共已经有七年了吧。想一想也是一个很特殊的经历。我觉得我在人生的未来不会再有这样的长时间的跟同样的学生在一起学习的经历了。从六年级到12年级毕业这么多年真的是很特殊。这条裙子的特别之处就在于(它)是我的学生们在初中的时候,她们把她们的零花钱放在一起,然后凑钱给我买了这条裙子,所以很有特别的意义。我每次如果有重大活动的时候就会穿这条裙子。而且尤其是今年他们要毕业了,我更加要穿这条裙子跟他们合影来记录这样的一个特殊的时刻。其实我觉得现在想想就像梦一样!转眼间他们就从那么小的六年级的学生,那么那么那么可爱那么小,然后一下子到这么高,这么可...当然也是很可爱,就是大孩子了!就是好长时间,这么多年看着他们长大,就是觉得心里面真的是有点舍不得!但是又很高兴,就知道他们的前途会很光明,很美好!就在心里为他们加油吧!
