"Curiosity is the greatest driving force for humans to explore the essence of nature." After transferring from a public junior high school (7th grade) to the international track and skipping a grade, Chine still maintained academic excellence—at Sendelta, he is now developing his passion for engineering innovation and social care.

本期【新少年Vol.54】，让我们走近十年级在读学生曾御程Chine，解锁他在新哲独一无二的成长密码。

In "Young Talk Vol.54", let's get to know Chine, a 10th-grade student at Sendelta.

Chine的学术突破，始于一次坚定的选择。在一所著名的公立初中读完7年级后，英文读写应用能力突出但应试优势不足的他，为了更好地发挥理工科特长、深耕工程兴趣，也为未来赴美深造铺路，果断从公立初中转轨新哲。

After finishing 7th grade at a renowned public junior high school, Chine, who excelled in English reading and writing application but lacked an advantage in exam-oriented English, made a decisive transfer to Sendelta. He aimed to better leverage his strengths in science and engineering, deepen his interest in engineering, and lay the groundwork for future studies in the United States.

凭借达标的数学与英文水平，Chine直接跳级入读9年级——新哲十四年沉淀的AP体系与丰厚理工科创资源，成为了他成长的沃土。

With qualified math and English proficiency, Chine directly skipped a grade to enter the 9th grade—Sendelta's 14-year-old AP program and rich science, technology, and innovation resources became the fertile ground for his growth.

这份选择很快结出硕果。9年级时，他便挑战AP宏观经济学与AP微观经济学，两门均斩获5分满分，托福考出103分；10年级更选修AP微积分BC、AP物理C力学、AP人文地理、AP计算机科学A等四门高难度课程。

In the 9th grade, he took on the challenge of AP Macroeconomics and AP Microeconomics, scoring a perfect 5 on both; he also achieved a TOEFL score of 103. In the 10th grade, he further enrolled in four high-difficulty courses: AP Calculus BC, AP Physics C: Mechanics, AP Human Geography, and AP Computer Science A.

在课堂上游刃有余的他，课余主动啃起费曼物理学等本科教材，为攻克量子力学自学微积分，遇惑即随时找学校老师解答——这份自主学习能力，在新哲开放的学术氛围中得以充分释放。

While excelling in classes, Chine proactively studied undergraduate textbooks like Feynman Physics in his spare time. To tackle quantum mechanics, he taught himself calculus and sought help from school teachers whenever he encountered problems.

“新哲从不限制学习的节奏，只要你有探索的欲望，总能找到资源支撑。”Chine说，正是这种开放的学术氛围，让他得以顺着好奇心的指引，不断向更高阶的知识领域迈进。

 "Sendelta never limits the pace of learning. As long as you have the desire to explore, you can always find resources to support you," Chine said. It is this open academic atmosphere that allows him to keep advancing into more advanced knowledge fields.

2024年11月的那场意外的摔伤，成为Chine成长的一个重要节点。手臂骨折让他经历了术后剧痛与四个月的艰难康复。当左手肌肉萎缩到连简单动作都难以完成时，他咬牙坚持康复训练，也真切体会到残障人士的无助。

An accidental fall in November 2024 became a key turning point in Chine's growth. A broken arm left him with severe post-surgery pain and a difficult four-month recovery period, allowing him to truly understand the helplessness of people with disabilities.

这份切身之痛，转化为温暖他人的力量——作为自媒体时代成长起来的10后，Chine创建了一个微信视频号，分享康复技巧与经验，如今已积累六千多粉丝，播放量超十万次。

This personal pain was transformed into a force to warm others—Chine created a WeChat Video Channel to share rehabilitation tips and experiences. It now has over 6,000 followers and more than 100,000 cumulative views.

This sense of social responsibility grew even stronger through public welfare activities organized by the school. At public welfare institutions, he helped children with physical disabilities or intellectual impairments. During the summer of 2025, he volunteered as a teacher in Lichuan, Hubei for five days, taking charge of all aspects of the volunteer teaching work. The gratitude from the children strengthened his belief in "helping others with one's abilities".

At the mid-term parent-teacher meeting last semester, Chine volunteered as a translator to assist his foreign physics teacher in communicating with parents. Seven parents came for consultations that day, focusing on two core questions: their children's in-class performance and specific suggestions from the teacher on their children's learning. This experience not only brought him closer to the teacher but also helped him understand his parents' efforts in investing in his education and their worries about his growth.

这份同理心的培育，恰与新哲倡导的 “全人教育”理念一致——在这里，学术成长始终与人格塑造相辅相成。

The cultivation of this empathy aligns perfectly with Sendelta's advocated "holistic education" concept—here, academic growth always goes hand in hand with character development.

对工程的热爱，是Chine最鲜明的标签，而新哲的研创资源，为他的热爱提供了尽情生长的土壤。作为VEX机器人社团的核心成员，他每周参与固定课程，从理论学习到动手搭建，再到用C++编程调试，全程深度参与。为备战新赛季，他暑假每周进行训练，并参加两周集中训练营，学校的机器人工坊与工程教室，随时为他开放练习。

Passion for engineering is Chine's most distinctive trait, and Sendelta's research and innovation resources provide fertile soil for this passion to thrive. As a core member of the VEX Robotics Club, he attends regular weekly courses. To prepare for the new competition season, he trains every week during the summer and participates in a two-week intensive training camp. Sendelta's robotics workshop and engineering classroom are always open for his practice.

GESP C++一级考试中，他成为200多人里首个交卷的考生，如今正向着算法要求更高的二级发起冲击。

 In the GESP C++ Level 1 Exam, he was the first to finish among over 200 test-takers. Now, he is preparing to take on the more algorithmically demanding Level 2 Exam.

▲Chine为竞赛机器人编程

More notably, after advancing to the 10th grade, Chine joined the advanced course of Sendelta's Research and Innovation Center—the Beamline for Schools (BL4S) Physics Experiment Competition class, becoming the youngest student in the class. BL4S is regarded as the top competition for high school students worldwide in particle accelerator design. Winning teams are invited to Switzerland and Germany to conduct experiments under the guidance of world-class physics and engineering scientists. Currently, the BL4S course is taught by Sendelta's top physics teachers, focusing on solidifying quantum physics fundamentals to prepare for the competition. Additionally, Chine is collaborating with a PhD from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences to develop a program using Python to connect to biological databases.

“新哲的研创中心就像一个‘资源宝库’，硬件设施、顶尖师资、特色课程体系一应俱全。”Chine感慨道。从AP理工课程的学习，到机器人竞赛的专业指导，再到高端科研项目的资源对接，新哲为学术进度较快的他搭建了专属成长阶梯。

"Sendelta's Research and Innovation Center is like a 'treasure trove of resources', with complete hardware facilities, top-tier teachers, and a distinctive curriculum system," Chine said. From AP courses to robotics competitions, and even high-end scientific research projects, Sendelta has built a customized growth ladder for Chine, who progresses quickly academically.

在新哲研创中心，“学术天花板”不断被突破，每一份热爱与潜力，都得到最坚实的托举。

At Sendelta's Research and Innovation Center, the "academic ceiling" is constantly being broken, and every passion and potential is strongly supported.

From focusing on his science and engineering strengths when transferring to Sendelta, to skipping grades and scoring perfect 5s in AP exams, competing in physics and engineering competitions, and continuing to spread warmth through public welfare—Chine's growth trajectory is a vivid example of Sendelta's "personalized cultivation".

针对进度超前学生的个性化需求，新哲不仅以十四年课程体系沉淀、顶尖研创资源打破学术天花板，更用丰富的竞赛、科研与公益实践平台，让特长有处施展、潜力充分释放。当热爱有资源托举、特长被用心呵护，少年的未来自然愈发清晰耀眼。

To meet the personalized needs of advanced-progress students, Sendelta not only breaks the academic ceiling with its 14-year curriculum system and top-tier research and innovation resources but also provides rich platforms for competitions, scientific research, and public welfare practices, allowing students to showcase their strengths and fully unleash their potential.

在新哲这片沃土上持续汲取养分、不断突破自我的Chine，也必将在学术与热爱的征途上，走出更开阔的天地。

Continuing to absorb nutrients and constantly surpassing himself at Sendelta, Chine is bound to blaze a broader path in his academic and passionate journey.
