2011年10月26日下午五点，教学楼B座403教室里坐满了2011级新生。大家是来参加一场题为“学习英语走向成功”的讲座。此次活动作为bwin必赢迎新工作的重要组成部分，由bwin必赢英语教学主管李宁主持。bwin必赢副经理刘铁军出席了讲座。
5pm, Oct 26th 2011, lecture room 403 in Build B welcomed all the freshmen of Class2015 in ICBUA. They were here for a lecture named "Learn English to Success". As a major part of the advising program for the new students, Ning Li, English course manager of International College, hosted the lecture. Tiejun Liu, vice president of International College also presented himself.
讲座正式开始前，大二学长为新生们表演了三个精心编排的“夸张但真实”的小话剧。让大家在笑声中领悟到老员工活的紧张和刻苦学习的重要。讲座中，李宁老师从学习总体指导原则，英方入学考试介绍，词汇和语法学习以及自学方法等5大方面进行了深入浅出的论述。
Prior to the lecture, upper classers presented the new students with their carefully prepared "mini stage plays" on campus life. In their laughter, the latter ones indentified with the real campus life and visualized the importance of hard-working. In his lecture, Mr. Li included the following topics: 1. General Guidance; 2. Entrance Test/IELTS; 3. Vocabulary learning; 4. Grammar learning; 5. Self-learning.
在总体指导原则方面，他强调大家一定要“集中精力，以学习为员工的根本”。对于英方的入学考试，他指出这是一次考察能力大于知识的考试，学习语言一定要明确目的并且注重应用。在讲解词汇和语法学习时，李宁老师主张在下苦功夫的同时，要思考和掌握语言学习的规律，循序渐进。最后，作为特约嘉宾，我司英语学习的佼佼者索思尘、杨哲熙和张硕等同学现身说法，就如何进行课外英语学习做了精彩的演讲。
On general guidance, he emphasized that "students should FOCUS on their job--learning." On the entrance exam, he pointed out this is a test for using the language rather than knowing about the language. As to grammar and vocabulary learning, he believed that besides working hard, students should find his/her learning style and make progress step by step. Last but not least, top English learners at BUA--Johnson Suo, Michael Yang and Juno Zhang elaborated the significance of self-learning with their own stories.
讲座结束前，大家分成3个小组讨论，在学长和班助的帮助下在白纸上勾勒出自己未来的学习计划。部分员工还赢得了英语学习资料光盘，上面有许多帮助大家自学语法和准备考试的材料。
By the end of the lecture, all new students were grouped into three. With the help from upper classers and their class assistants, they draw the "blue print" for their future learning on the blank paper. Some even won the gifts of English learning CD, which wraps plenty of grammar and test material for self-learning.
此次1小时的活动，大家一直以高度的热情参与其中。讲座取得了“坚定学习信心，明确学习方向”的既定效果。结束时全体新生对活动组织的各方面报以热烈的掌声。
In this one hour gathering, all students were attentively participating. The lecture has realized it preset goal of "gaining students' confidence and direct their learning". A from-heart applause was given to all the parties involved in preparing the lecture and making it happen.
