辩论，不仅是语言的艺术，更是思维的艺术。辩论赛是对于学生运用中文语言能力和思辩能力在短时间内的集中训练。在刚刚落幕的华夏辩论赛中，北区共有四所学校参加，共8个代表队。我校同学取得了优异的成绩。在4-6年级组，我校正方队员吴杰明，刘朵睿，郑芷兰，反方队员 徐翰轩，廖晓安，周宇洋获得二等奖。在7-9年级组，我校同学以绝对优势获得第一名。我校正方队员徐翰扬，王弈都，陆尔希，反方队员吴奕康，吴宗书，颜睿奇获得一等奖。吴奕康同学获得最佳辩手。

在三个月的辛苦准备中，在赛场上同学神采奕奕的唇枪舌剑中，我们看到了无数志愿者的无私奉献，看到了学生们在压力中成长，看到了学生们体会到了中文语言的魅力。欢迎更多的同学参加到中文辩论的队伍中来。
