Our school adheres to the concept of cultivating students' interest in reading, improving reading literacy, and creating a scholarly campus, putting learning first and learning based on reading. We have always encouraged students to read more and read good books.

In order to allow students to express their rich inner world on the basis of fully reading and reading a lot of books, in mid-November, TAS teachers and students jointly selected two reading stars to share good books. Let’s take a look~

《白夜行》

作者：【日】东野圭吾

“震撼了我很久的一本小说。作为一本推理小说，它逻辑清晰，环环相扣，将一个个看似毫无关系的案件连在一起，最后一起揭晓。与其他推理小说不同的是里面人物复杂的情感，没有一个角色是正义或者邪恶的，他们做的一切都是有动机的。雪穗是为了跨越阶级，亮司是为了保护雪穗，友彦是为了钱和情欲，今枝是为了真相。

"This novel left a lasting impression on me. As a mystery, it’s tightly woven, with clear logic that links seemingly unrelated cases, all building toward a final revelation. But what truly sets this novel apart is its characters. Unlike many mysteries that pit heroes against villains, this story offers no easy moral lines. Each character is complex, shaped by their desires, traumas, and the choices they’ve made to survive. Yukiho strives to transcend social class, Ryoji acts to protect Yukiho, Tomohiko is driven by money and desire, and Imaeda pursues the truth.

对于雪穗的评价，读者们褒贬不一，有人说她做这些事是因为童年创伤并只是希望更好的生活，有些人说她就是纯恶，为了登上上层阶级不惜手段。出于情，从雪穗视角来看她做的并没错，只是为了更好的生活。可是出于理，她做的事情大部分都是冷酷无情的，对江利子的残忍控制，让亮司对继女的侵犯，都是罪大恶极的。但是我认为雪穗无错。她为了想要的东西步步为营；在经历童年创伤后仍然坚强；被调查怀疑时的极致理性。那些站在道德至高点指责雪穗的人没有经历过雪穗的黑暗经历，就没有资格指责雪穗恶毒。

Yukiho Karasawa is especially compelling. She’s smart, ambitious, and resilient—someone who manages to transform herself from a poor, traumatized girl into a woman of elegance and power. But her methods are far from noble. Some readers see her as a victim of her circumstances, using any means necessary to escape her dark past. Others view her as calculating and manipulative, willing to hurt anyone to achieve her goals. To me, Yukiho is both—and neither. She’s a product of her environment, and while her actions are often cruel and self-serving, they make perfect sense within the context of her life. Her calm, strategic nature is as chilling as it is impressive. Those who judge her harshly often forget how much darkness she had to overcome just to survive.

另一个争议点人雪穗到底爱不爱亮司。我认为亮司是爱的，活在黑暗中暗暗保护雪穗，而我认为雪穗对亮司的感情不叫作爱，因为她更爱自己。他们的关系更像是一种互相依赖生存的灵魂伴侣情感，这让他们在后来人生中互相帮助，文中说‘如同枪虾和虾虎鱼般’。他们也是唯一了解对方的人。在最后亮司死时她没有回头，这不仅是对过去生活的一种斩断，更可以从她没有回头这一点看出她失态了，作为一个“陌生人”她应该忍不住回头看一眼，可是她却冷漠的转头就走了，这是她唯一一次的失态，她的灵魂从这一刻开始是空洞的。”

Another fascinating aspects of the novel is whether Yukiho loves Ryoji. There’s no question that Ryoji loves Yukiho—his entire life revolves around protecting her. But Yukiho’s feelings are harder to define. She doesn’t seem to love him in the romantic sense, but their connection is undeniable. It’s more like a mutual dependence, a deep, unspoken bond. As the novel describes, they are like a pistol shrimp and a goby fish—two creatures that rely on each other in a dangerous world. The ending is especially haunting, when Ryoji dies and Yukiho walks away without looking back. Her refusal to glance back isn’t just a way of leaving her past behind—it’s one of the few times she reveals a crack in her otherwise flawless composure. For a brief moment, it feels like her humanity has slipped away entirely, leaving her hollow and disconnected from the world."

“《三体一》全篇没有像普通科幻故事一样震撼的宇宙场面，而全篇放在了地球一些普通的场景上。《三体一》大致讲述了两条时间线。第一条时间线发生在中国的文革时期。当时有一位女性天体物理学家叶文洁遭受了悲惨的经历，逐渐产生了对于人类的不满与仇恨。在她在一个叫做红岸基地的地方向宇宙发射地球的坐标，并将地球的位置暴露给了三体星的一系列故事。第二条时间线是现代的一位叫做汪淼的纳米科学家在现代接触到的人和事，从汪淼的眼睛内出现倒计时后，他所处的科学界发生了许多不同寻常的事情。这本书中关于汪淼的时间线就是他和地球防卫组织与地球三体组织，也就是代表叶文洁的反对地球人的那一排之间的对抗故事。在故事的最后，三体人还是踏上了前往地球的征程，为后面的《三体二》和《三体三》埋下了伏笔。

Unlike conventional science fiction stories that dazzle readers with vast space battles and alien landscapes, The Three-Body Problem grounds its narrative in more familiar, Earth-bound settings. The novel follows two interwoven timelines. The first timeline is set during China’s Cultural Revolution, focusing on Ye Wenjie, an astrophysicist whose life is marred by tragedy. After witnessing the destruction of her family and career, Ye grows increasingly disillusioned with humanity. At Red Coast Base, a secret military research facility, she transmits Earth’s coordinates into space, unknowingly exposing humanity to an advanced alien civilization called the Trisolarans. The second timeline takes place in the present day, centering on Wang Miao, a nanotechnology scientist who becomes caught up in a series of inexplicable events. After a mysterious countdown appears in his vision, Wang begins investigating strange phenomena within the scientific community. His journey leads him to the Three-Body virtual reality game, which simulates the chaotic and unstable world of Trisolaris. Through the game, Wang uncovers critical information about the Trisolarans and the two Earth-based factions: the Earth Defense Organization, which works to protect humanity, and the Earth-Trisolaris Organization, which sides with the Trisolarans. By the novel’s end, the Trisolarans have set out for Earth, laying the groundwork for the dramatic events of the following books.

《三体一》的观感非常震撼，其中“三体游戏”以及最著名的“古筝行动”给了我极大的震撼。在小说中有一个场景时常出现，那就是使用虚拟现实软件和套件进入一个叫三体游戏的系统游戏中像是看故事一样体验真正的三体世界是怎样的。在小说中，当主人公们游玩“三体游戏”时，出现了许多的概念和事件，最终帮助了地球防卫组织了解了许多关于三体世界和地球三体组织的信息。而“古筝行动”利用了许多根绷直的纳米细丝拉在巴拿马运河的两岸，将一艘地球三体组织的油轮切成了一片片的碎片。刘慈欣的语言文字描绘的生动形象，让我在阅读这一段的时候感受到了极大的震撼。

The experience of reading The Three-Body Problem was unforgettable. Two moments in particular—The Three-Body Game and Operation Guzheng—stood out to me as especially powerful. The Three-Body Game is a virtual reality simulation that allows players to experience life on the chaotic Trisolaran planet. Through this immersive game, characters—and readers—gain insight into the challenges faced by the Trisolarans. The game is not only a narrative device but also a brilliant tool for introducing key scientific concepts in an engaging way. It left me marveling at Liu’s ability to blend scientific theory with storytelling. Operation Guzheng is one of the most thrilling and memorable scenes in the novel. In this sequence, nanowire filaments are stretched across the Panama Canal, slicing a ship belonging to the Earth-Trisolaris Organization into fragments. Liu’s precise descriptions and careful attention to scientific detail make this moment incredibly impactful, showcasing his ability to combine technical accuracy with dramatic tension.

《三体一》这一部小说教会了我许多的东西，不仅仅丰富了我的一些科学知识，还让我深刻明白了想象力与语言结合的力量。我的爱好正是写科幻小说，第一部启发我去写的科幻小说也正是刘慈欣所写的。可在阅读《三体一》前，我所写出的文字要么就是过于理论化，趋于数学的语言，晦涩难懂又极其枯燥；要么就太过于口语化，写出的东西实在是过于文学性，丧失了一部科幻小说所需要的语言。在阅读完《三体一》后，我渐渐学会了将自己内在的三部分，也就是想象力，数学文字以及我的写作语言合理分配在一起，最终写出令人比较满意的文章。

Reading The Three-Body Problem taught me more than just scientific concepts—it reshaped how I approach writing. As an aspiring sci-fi writer, I had often struggled to find balance in my work. My early stories were either too dense, filled with mathematical jargon that alienated readers, or too casual, sacrificing the clarity and rigor needed for science fiction. Liu’s novel showed me how to blend imagination, scientific detail, and engaging prose in harmony. By studying his approach, I learned how to distribute these elements thoughtfully, allowing me to craft more effective and satisfying stories.

被一部科幻作品影响，被他改变，甚至被他教导，被他指引我下一步的方向。我想，这就是科幻文学的意义所在。科幻文学并不只是一种枯燥的文体，更是一种开拓想象力的载体，在给我们生活上的灵感时，还能够授人以渔，教导我们，给我们一个充满方向感的未来。”

To be influenced, guided, and inspired by a single work of science fiction is an extraordinary experience. For me, this novel didn’t just expand my imagination—it showed me the true purpose of sci-fi. It’s more than a genre. It’s a tool for exploring the unknown, sparking creativity, and imagining futures that go beyond our current understanding. Science fiction not only inspires us to dream but also equips us with the tools to shape those dreams into reality.
