编者按：在刚刚结束的为期八天的第十一届“外研社”辩论赛上，复旦大学代表队以无可争议的精彩表现征服了所有的对手，最终问鼎冠军宝座。下文则是来自复旦大学二辩范复寅的参赛感言，希望对各位英语学习爱好者、辩论爱好者有所启示……

时光如梭，一晃眼，离那一段没有硝烟的“战斗”竟然已有两星期的时间。这两个星期的时间一直忙于补上5月9日到5月17日期间所欠下的学业和工作，真可以说是忙得不亦乐乎。但是想要写写这次比赛的念头一直萦绕在脑海中，比赛的点点滴滴亦如余音绕梁，挥之不去。

The one-week FLTRP Cup National English Debating Competition has been a great opportunity for me to experience contentions, broaden scope of knowledge and, and of course, establish new relations and meet old friends.

Debate is learning. This is more than language proficiency and debating strategies. The 11th tournament covered a wide range of motions, which tested our knowledge stock. Motions such as “THBT foreign intervention is necessary in stopping the expansion of violence in the Horn of Africa” really took people dumfounded, and finally reduced the debate from an exchange of knowledge to an exchange of ignorance. Such experience serves as a reminder that I should pay more attention to unfamiliar issues, and not take it for granted that the situation in China represents the situation of the whole world, or foreign affairs are only those in Asia, America and Europe.

中文，英文，法文。。。。。。总之，一切语言在这里都受欢迎！！
辩论超越语言的边界！！
中文更好，哈哈~~~

Dear Debaters,
随着“宏辞论道，纵横天下”的豪言壮语深入人心，可否为我们的大赛创意出别出心裁的赛徽呢？所有人都可以充分发挥自己的想象，把对大赛的热情融入一个小小的标志。期待真正触动人心的创意~~~
