一个多月前,为庆祝人民海军成立73周年,贵州省石阡县银锋村海军希望小学的孩子们给海军研究院的叔叔阿姨们寄来自己动手制作的立体画,还录制了为海军庆生的小视频。

Days before the 73rd anniversary of the founding of the PLA Navy, the PLA Naval Research Academy in Beijing received navy-themed paintings and short videos from the Navy Hope Primary School in Yinfeng Village, Shiqian County of Guizhou Province, which were gifts made by the pupils of this rural primary school for the celebration of the 73rd birthday of the PLA Navy.

位于西南深山里的石阡县交通不便、经济落后。唐国政是土生土长的银锋村人,在银锋村小学任教36年,他还清晰地记得,过去,近200人的学校仅有3间教室,冬天漏风、夏天漏雨。学生上课要自带课桌椅,时常出现3个人挤1张长条桌的情况。

Shiqian County, located in the deep mountains in southwest China, had poor transportation systems which greatly hindered the economic development of the county, and the Yinfeng Village was no exception. Tang Guozheng, a native of Yinfeng Village, has been working as a teacher of the primary school in the village for 36 years. He remembers clearly that before the year of 2001, the school with nearly 200 students only had three classrooms, which were leaking cold air in winter and rainwater in summer. Students had to bring their own desks and chairs to class. It occurred often that three students had to share one table.

2001年,好消息传到银锋村。当年2月,海军某部派代表前往银锋村小学签订援建协议。建校舍、修操场、添器具。那一年,银锋村小学更名为“银锋村海军希望小学”。该校现在已纳入军队援建的300余所 “八一爱民学校”名录。

In 2001, good news spread to the village. In February of that year, several officers dispatched from a naval unit stationed in Beijing came to the Yinfeng Village Primary School and signed on behalf of the naval unit an assistance agreement with the school. According to the agreement, the naval unit funded the construction of the new classroom building, the playground, and procurement of teaching facilities, and it was in that year that the school was renamed "Navy Hope Primary School in Yinfeng Village". It is one of more than 300 schools aided by the military.

21年间,海军部队在这里不断播撒希望的种子: 2001年初,海军某部开始援建;2015年,海军研究院接力援建;2016年,学校实施改扩建,新的食堂、宿舍、淋浴室陆续建成……

Naval units have kept sowing the seeds of hope in the Navy Hope Primary School in Yinfeng Village for 21 years: the aid was initiated in 2001 by a naval unit; the Naval Research Academy has taken over the responsibility since 2015; in 2016, with the financial assistance from the Naval Research Academy, the school's renovation and expansion project was started, new dining halls, dormitories and bathrooms rose from the ground one after another…

21年间,希望的种子结出硕果。据统计,学校已先后有300 多名毕业生考取国防科技大学、海军工程大学、贵州大学等高校,成为社会栋梁之才。

The seeds of hope have borne fruitful results. According to statistics, over the past 21 years, more than 300 graduates of the Navy Hope Primary School in Yinfeng Village have later been admitted from senior high schools in Shiqian County to universities and colleges such as the National University of Defense Technology, Naval University of Engineering, and Guizhou University, gradually becoming pillars of the society.

21岁的马光杰是银锋村海军希望小学第11届毕业生, 去年6月,他从贵州工业职业技术学院毕业,选择报名参军,分配到海军某部服役。他是银锋村首位到海军部队服役的青年。

Ma Guangjie ever studied in the Navy Hope Primary School in Yinfeng Village from 2006 to 2012. Last year, after graduating from Guizhou Industry Polytechnic College, the 21-year-old Ma joined the military and was assigned to a naval unit, becoming the first young man serving in the naval troops from Yinfeng Village.
