01 前言
清华大学官方微信最新发布的全球宣传片在网络上刷屏了。他就是高中就读于杭州第二中学，后考入清华大学就读物理系专业的陈逸贤，那个被林潮教授称为十年来教过的最优秀的清北学生。
02 陈逸贤的高考历程
当然，任何看似光鲜的成绩背后都不可能是一帆风顺的，陈逸贤的求学之路也曾遇到过挫折，2017年，他在浙江新高考中发挥失常而落榜。
在心情极度低落时，他抱着试试看的心情参加了2017年的第15届中国日报社“21世纪·新东方杯”全国中小学英语演讲比赛，没想到竟然赢得了高中组种冠军并夺得了最具潜力奖。这是陈逸贤第一次进入国家级别的演讲比赛，这次比赛不仅给了他转机，也给了他很大的鼓励，陈逸贤决心继续备战高考，最终他如愿考上了清华大学。
03 陈逸贤的英语学习之路
每个孩子都有着自己的爱好和特长，也有着适合自己的成长之路。陈逸贤的父母都是杭师大英语老师，这似乎为陈逸贤在英语学习方面铺垫了更好的基础、有了更多的优势。下面我们来看看他究竟是如何学习英语的？他又是如何用英语这个优势叩开清华大学的大门的？
1）不死记英语单词。他的父母有着不同以往英语教学的教学理念，陈妈妈的理念是耳濡目染，在陈逸贤幼儿期间就带着他读各类英语绘本，激发他的英语学习兴趣。在看绘本的过程中不要求死记英语单词，而更多的是去关注英语文章的内容。
2）培养英语学习兴趣。陈逸贤从小学起就看英文原版书，在小学五年级的时候陈妈妈就给他讲述了《哈利·波特》的原版英语书。陈妈妈开始读一章解释一章，于是他对后面的内容就特别期待，这样就慢慢加深了他对英语学习的兴趣。
后来，陈逸贤开始独立看英语原版书，在书籍的选择上也是根据自己的兴趣选择，他会选择看一些侦探、科幻方面的英语小说和杂志。
3）将英语学习融入业余生活。从小有着较好英语基础的陈逸贤到了初中便有了看剧的兴趣，他特别喜欢的是英国科幻电视剧《Doctor Who》，他不仅仅是看剧本，还在看剧本的同时开拓了自己的英语兴趣，开始在网络上免费给网友们翻译字幕。在看剧和翻译的过程中，他积累了大量的词汇，也得到了很好的听力训练。
4）大学期间多次参赛演讲。大学期间，在国内各类英语演讲比赛中，陈逸贤经常以优异的成绩见诸报道。在大学仅3年的时间里，他有7次国际会议出席展示自己的经验。即便是在和国外选手的比拼中，他也不遑多让，在伦敦举办的50多国冠军同台演讲比赛中，曾收获全球六强的荣誉。
04 结语
语言学习无外乎多学、多用、多听、多练，说起来似乎也不难，但坚持下来却很难，练到炉火纯青更是难上加难。有些孩子学习语言孜孜不倦，有些孩子却觉得苦不堪言，笔者将陈逸贤的英语学习之路归纳成以上四点，希望对一些语言学习有困难的孩子能有所启发，并能对英语学习保有一份信心。
用现在流行的一句话结语：“任何看似毫不费力的成绩，背后其实都付出了十万分的努力！”语言学习亦是如此！

附陈逸贤在21世纪杯上题为《我的中国梦》的演讲稿全文：
My Version of a China Dream
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Today I’m going to elaborate on my version of a Chinese dream. Not just my own one, one applies to all the students of China. As we all know that China Dream is a concept adopted by President Xi to encourage all Chinese citizens to aim high and contribute more to the rejuvenation of China, and I believe we students are more directly connected with this Dream than anyone else.
Now, please consider this: Why is China Dream emphasized in the first place? As there are no battle-cries in times of peace, this Dream is no sudden outburst of patriotic emotion. Rather, something has induced it, something contradictory to the sole principle of China Dream. Yes, it’s this pervading unconcern among people for our community which has brought about this urgent call, a call to redress this degrading phenomenon in which unfortunately we students play a major role.
It’s a pity but a truth that today more and more students are increasingly motivated by self-interest, instead of trying to better our community, they have chosen to become a “perfect egoist”; everything they do, including the community service and so-called hobbies, they do it just as a credit to their resume, or they know what is best for them to earn a diploma from a best university and find a best rewarding job; to pursue material wealth and define their success by fame and income. No wonder many of our most brilliant college graduates who majored in science and technology all end up in Wall Street. With this kind of dream, who would care about China anyway? Better leave China at the first opportunity to trade a much easier way to success in America or somewhere else.
This, my friends, is exactly what a Chinese dream is not and this gives me a perfect idea of what it should be. Our individual dreams cannot be separated from the prosperity of our country. So my fellow students, ask not what this country can do for you but what you can do for this country. If you study science, devote yourself to making another technology breakthrough for China. If you study politics, improve yourself to improve the policies for China to make it more democratic. If you study business, try to set up business corporations and charity organizations. If you study education, pass this dream on to our future generations.
We cannot shrink from leading China to its glory tomorrow because we're already the leaders of today!
Thank you!
