傳統(tǒng)的清明節(jié)除了祭祖外，還有許多風(fēng)俗，如春游、插柳、放風(fēng)箏、蕩秋千、踢毽子等。十幾年來，經(jīng)過悉心澆灌和涵養(yǎng)，這些原本日漸枯萎的文化活動(dòng)又勃興起來，呈現(xiàn)出新的形式以適應(yīng)現(xiàn)代社會(huì)需求。比如“踏春”變成了春游，“插柳”轉(zhuǎn)化為植樹造林。被立為國(guó)家法定假日后，清明節(jié)還承載了人們購物、休閑、旅游等多種需求。小長(zhǎng)假催生出更多消費(fèi)需求和商機(jī)，為多個(gè)行業(yè)帶來經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)。這種“假日現(xiàn)象”是清明節(jié)在當(dāng)代最大的變化。在浩瀚的歷史長(zhǎng)河中，一個(gè)節(jié)日的形成是時(shí)間和人們雙向互動(dòng)的結(jié)果。作為中國(guó)重要的傳統(tǒng)節(jié)日，清明節(jié)蘊(yùn)含著華夏文明的文化基因。在城市化、市場(chǎng)化、國(guó)際化不斷進(jìn)展，現(xiàn)代生活與傳統(tǒng)節(jié)日不斷碰撞與沖突的當(dāng)下，清明節(jié)的文化復(fù)歸告訴我們，唯有不斷豐富進(jìn)展，才能更好地保護(hù)傳承傳統(tǒng)節(jié)日、守護(hù)民族精神家園。初賽題目

2020年春天，新冠肺炎疫情改寫了世界歷史。疫情給人類生命平安和身體健康帶來巨大威逼，給全球公共衛(wèi)生平安帶來巨大挑戰(zhàn)。病毒是人類共同的敵人。今日的全球疫情防控，已經(jīng)是一場(chǎng)維護(hù)全球公共衛(wèi)生平安之戰(zhàn)、維護(hù)人類健康福祉之戰(zhàn)、維護(hù)世界進(jìn)展繁華之戰(zhàn)。疫情在全球蔓延以來，中國(guó)始終秉持人類命運(yùn)共同體理念，同各國(guó)共享防控有益做法，開展藥物和疫苗聯(lián)合研發(fā)，并向消失疫情的國(guó)家供應(yīng)力所能及的救濟(jì)。病毒沒有國(guó)界。沒有什么比全球公共衛(wèi)生危機(jī)更能印證人類命運(yùn)相聯(lián)、休戚與共的客觀現(xiàn)實(shí)，也沒有什么比全球合作抗疫更能凸顯構(gòu)建人類命運(yùn)共同體的迫切。以團(tuán)結(jié)取代分歧，以理性消退偏見，以行動(dòng)代替徘徊，各國(guó)應(yīng)攜手抗疫，共克時(shí)艱。唯有如此，世界才能走出疫情的至暗時(shí)刻，迎來風(fēng)雨之后的陽光。初賽題目

付費(fèi)就能得到學(xué)問嗎？許多學(xué)問付費(fèi)軟件鼓舞你曬出自己的學(xué)習(xí)時(shí)間，幫你排名，1000小時(shí)以上的學(xué)習(xí)，多少書籍的閱讀給了你心理上的滿意感。但這些指標(biāo)其實(shí)是你的付出，不代表你的收獲。信息與學(xué)問，一是零散的內(nèi)容，一是結(jié)構(gòu)化的有使用價(jià)值的體系。如何有效利用學(xué)問付費(fèi)內(nèi)容獵取學(xué)問不是獵取信息，盼望以下內(nèi)容可以幫忙到你。首先，問出一個(gè)好問題和找到一個(gè)答案，哪個(gè)更重要？問出一系列好問題就是獲得學(xué)問的開始。一種學(xué)問能夠起到作用肯定是建立在現(xiàn)有的認(rèn)識(shí)體系和現(xiàn)有的學(xué)問之上的，一種學(xué)問要想轉(zhuǎn)化為能力需要不斷去實(shí)踐，這種實(shí)踐可以是將學(xué)問付諸行動(dòng)，例如學(xué)習(xí)了英語課程是需要去和外國(guó)人交流。沒有實(shí)踐環(huán)節(jié)學(xué)問不能轉(zhuǎn)化為一種能力。其次，真正有用的不是學(xué)問，是解答問題的能力，而探究能力和答案是否正確沒有太大關(guān)系。好的老師鼓舞好的問題，問題本身體現(xiàn)了學(xué)生對(duì)專項(xiàng)內(nèi)容的理解及思考的深度。在今日這個(gè)社會(huì)飛速變化的時(shí)代，許多問題沒有答案，或者說沒有標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案。如何高效獲得信息，將信息整理加工成一種對(duì)可能性的預(yù)判是真正的能力所在。最終，無疑學(xué)問付費(fèi)的年月供應(yīng)了大量可以學(xué)習(xí)提升的機(jī)會(huì)，需要依據(jù)個(gè)人的興趣，搭建一個(gè)學(xué)問體系，這才是每個(gè)人需要持之以恒堅(jiān)持的事。初賽題目

避開技術(shù)異化教育有了互聯(lián)網(wǎng)技術(shù)，將它充分且有效地運(yùn)用于教學(xué)是理所當(dāng)然的。但任何技術(shù)都是把雙刃劍，直播課堂也不例外。放在教育均衡的視野下，互聯(lián)網(wǎng)技術(shù)可以通過更大范圍的信息傳播，使得原本不均衡的兩地教育變得更均衡，讓更多的人享受更加優(yōu)質(zhì)的教育資源；同時(shí)，假如這種技術(shù)使用的方向或者目的發(fā)生了偏差，就很可能在客觀上壓抑了相對(duì)落后地區(qū)老師的自主教學(xué)和成長(zhǎng)，一段時(shí)間后反而可能拉大了兩地的教育差距。正因如此，對(duì)互聯(lián)網(wǎng)、大數(shù)據(jù)、人工智能在教育上的運(yùn)用，都要不僅僅看到好處、看到進(jìn)步，同樣需要思考它可能帶來的負(fù)效應(yīng)，防患于未然，因?yàn)榻逃P(guān)乎人的命運(yùn)、關(guān)乎社會(huì)進(jìn)步，容不得任憑“試錯(cuò)”。應(yīng)當(dāng)看到，教育本身的內(nèi)在邏輯遠(yuǎn)比互聯(lián)網(wǎng)和人工智能簡(jiǎn)單?；ヂ?lián)網(wǎng)是教育的手段和工具，這決定了“互聯(lián)網(wǎng)+教育”時(shí)，只能遵從教育的規(guī)律，而不是互聯(lián)網(wǎng)的規(guī)律。遠(yuǎn)程教學(xué)也好，大數(shù)據(jù)分析也好，技術(shù)手段最終都要服務(wù)于教育的本質(zhì)。在教育領(lǐng)域使用現(xiàn)代信息技術(shù)時(shí)，尤其要留意遵循人的成長(zhǎng)規(guī)律，尊重天性，教學(xué)相長(zhǎng)，讓學(xué)生的能力得到更多元的進(jìn)展，成為更好的自己，制造更美好的社會(huì)。決賽題目

大約在1500年前，中國(guó)創(chuàng)造了紙幣。公元7世紀(jì)，唐代商人開始用紙制收據(jù)來結(jié)算，將金屬硬幣交予他人保管。到了10世紀(jì)，宋朝朝廷開始發(fā)行紙幣。這一次，又是中國(guó)給世界帶來了貨幣革新。中國(guó)在移動(dòng)支付市場(chǎng)上進(jìn)展迅猛，很可能會(huì)成為全球第一個(gè)建成“無現(xiàn)金社會(huì)”的國(guó)家。中國(guó)在新經(jīng)濟(jì)和尖端技術(shù)上取得的勝利讓中國(guó)人有理由感到傲慢。中國(guó)的移動(dòng)支付技術(shù)領(lǐng)先美國(guó)和歐洲，在邁向“無現(xiàn)金社會(huì)”的進(jìn)展速度也超過西方多數(shù)發(fā)達(dá)經(jīng)濟(jì)體。中國(guó)消費(fèi)者已習(xí)慣使用手機(jī)為小商品付款，支付寶和微信支付已經(jīng)成為了中國(guó)創(chuàng)新的標(biāo)志。進(jìn)展中國(guó)家的消費(fèi)者和企業(yè)都盼望實(shí)現(xiàn)無線金支付的情況下，手機(jī)二維碼正在擊敗蘋果支付和其他品牌的支付服務(wù)。中國(guó)為這種轉(zhuǎn)型供應(yīng)了一個(gè)有效的模式，而且很可能會(huì)被效仿。移動(dòng)支付等無現(xiàn)金支付方式在中國(guó)進(jìn)展得如火如荼。它得益于三方面的進(jìn)展，一是包括第三方支付在內(nèi)的移動(dòng)互聯(lián)網(wǎng)技術(shù)的進(jìn)步；二是年輕消費(fèi)群體的移動(dòng)支付習(xí)慣；三則與中國(guó)的城市化進(jìn)程有關(guān)。城市人口相對(duì)密集，因此面對(duì)面的交易也相對(duì)多。在這個(gè)過程中，移動(dòng)支付供應(yīng)了很大的便利，同時(shí)這也有助于削減消失假鈔的情況。移動(dòng)支付的興起則大致經(jīng)過了三個(gè)階段。首先是通過掃描二維碼來支付的方式轉(zhuǎn)變了部分人的消費(fèi)習(xí)慣。接著有越來越多的線下商家接受這種支付方式。再者是阿里巴巴和騰訊兩大巨頭在場(chǎng)景應(yīng)用方面做了許多鋪墊，包括購物，公共出行交通和水電煤支付等。在許多領(lǐng)域，移動(dòng)支付都產(chǎn)生了深刻的影響。最顯著的是移動(dòng)支付便利了居民的消費(fèi)，無論是出門打車還是市場(chǎng)買菜都可以不帶現(xiàn)金。在促進(jìn)消費(fèi)的同時(shí)，它還可以提高財(cái)產(chǎn)平安。有人開玩笑說，手機(jī)成天拿在手里的話，小偷也可能沒錢可偷。此外，人們?cè)S多金融服務(wù)通過手機(jī)就可以實(shí)現(xiàn)了，去銀行的需求也就越來越少，這對(duì)國(guó)內(nèi)現(xiàn)有的金融行業(yè)，特別是銀行業(yè)會(huì)產(chǎn)生深遠(yuǎn)的影響。在世界范圍內(nèi)，中國(guó)移動(dòng)支付的進(jìn)展處于領(lǐng)先地位，其規(guī)模和程度都很大，比西方國(guó)家進(jìn)展得更飛快、使用頻次更多、深度更廣。這其中既有歷史緣由也有自己的獨(dú)特優(yōu)勢(shì)。傳統(tǒng)上，中國(guó)的金融服務(wù)進(jìn)展得比較慢，許多人沒有信用卡或者沒能得到相關(guān)的金融或理財(cái)服務(wù)，移動(dòng)支付就彌補(bǔ)了這部分人群的金融需求。發(fā)達(dá)國(guó)家則是由于借記卡和信用卡支付系統(tǒng)比較完善，在移動(dòng)支付方面的需求就比較少。對(duì)其他金融體系進(jìn)展較為滯后的進(jìn)展中國(guó)家來說，中國(guó)移動(dòng)支付的進(jìn)展具有肯定借鑒性，其低成本和便利性可以惠及當(dāng)?shù)孛癖?，刺激?jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)。但是它存在肯定的門檻。中國(guó)在無線網(wǎng)絡(luò)等基建設(shè)施方面的前期投入比較大，建設(shè)得也比較好，因此能支持人們這種消費(fèi)和支付行為。另外，中國(guó)人的工作和生活節(jié)奏比較快，對(duì)便捷或效率就有比較大的追求。當(dāng)然，移動(dòng)支付也可能存在肯定的問題和風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，例如移動(dòng)支付的數(shù)據(jù)平安以及支付系統(tǒng)的穩(wěn)定性需要引起足夠的重視?？傮w來說，移動(dòng)支付等無現(xiàn)金支付是一個(gè)健康的趨勢(shì)。展望將來，中國(guó)移動(dòng)支付的進(jìn)展有兩個(gè)趨勢(shì)。一是在無現(xiàn)金支付的過程中，人們對(duì)于移動(dòng)互聯(lián)技術(shù)的要求越來越高。二是會(huì)有越來越多的商家和商業(yè)環(huán)境會(huì)來使用這種支付方式，并從國(guó)內(nèi)擴(kuò)展到國(guó)外。在海外華人比較多的地方和一些旅游場(chǎng)所，會(huì)有越來越多的人使用支付寶和微信支付等支付方式。這也是推動(dòng)中國(guó)移動(dòng)互聯(lián)技術(shù)在全球布局的過程。初賽題目

幾千余年前，正是在絲綢之路上，西漢張騫兩次從陸路出訪西域，中國(guó)船隊(duì)在海上遠(yuǎn)達(dá)印度和斯里蘭卡；唐代對(duì)外通使交好的國(guó)家達(dá)70多個(gè)，來自各國(guó)的使臣、商人、留學(xué)生云集長(zhǎng)安；15世紀(jì)初，航海家鄭和七下西洋，到達(dá)東南亞諸多國(guó)家，遠(yuǎn)抵非洲東海岸肯尼亞，留下了中國(guó)同沿途各國(guó)人民友好交往的佳話。幾千余年后，正是在絲綢之路上，世界其他文明與中華文明交流互鑒。源自中國(guó)本土的儒學(xué)，早已走向世界，成為人類文明的一部分。佛教傳入中國(guó)后，同儒家文化和道家文化融合進(jìn)展，形成了具有中國(guó)特色的佛教文化和理論。中國(guó)的造紙術(shù)、火藥、印刷術(shù)、指南針?biāo)拇髣?chuàng)造帶動(dòng)了整個(gè)世界的革故鼎新，直接推動(dòng)了歐洲的文藝復(fù)興。中國(guó)哲學(xué)、文學(xué)、醫(yī)藥、絲綢、瓷器、茶葉等傳入西方，滲入西方民眾日常生活之中。在這種意義上，中國(guó)不僅僅只是一個(gè)國(guó)家或是民族國(guó)家，她更是一種文明，一種獨(dú)特而深邃的文明。中華文明曾長(zhǎng)期處于世界領(lǐng)先地位，是世界主流文化之一，對(duì)包括西方文化在內(nèi)的其他地區(qū)文化曾產(chǎn)生過重要影響，排他性最小，包涵性又最強(qiáng)，為整個(gè)世界克服困難、生生不息供應(yīng)了強(qiáng)大精神支撐。決賽題目
