去年十月金秋，浙江省高中生代表团一行33人赴日本美丽的静冈县作了一次为期一个星期的交流访问。代表团由浙江省旅游职业学院、义乌城镇职业学校、义乌中学和绍兴市职业教育中心等学校的学生和老师组成，这是浙江省对外友好协会派遣的第二个浙江省高中学生访日代表团。
　　代表团在日本静冈县日中友好协会的安排下，先后参观游览了东京迪斯尼乐园、静冈富士山、东照宫、京都岚山、金阁寺、清水寺、大阪城天守阁等，日本国的这些驰名的风景名胜和游乐场所，激起了大家浓厚的游览兴趣，特别是京都西郊的岚山，那是周恩来青年时代留下足迹的地方，他在当年写下的《雨中岚山》，是同学们最爱读的诗篇之一。深秋时分的总理诗碑在红红的枫叶林中显得更加光彩夺目，大家纷纷在诗碑前摄影留念。
　　
　　代表团分两组到静冈市立高等学校和静冈市商业学校进行访问交流。浙江省与静冈县自1982年缔结友好省县以来，双方在经贸、文教、体育等多个领域开展了丰富多彩的交流活动，20多年来结下了累累硕果。特别是在青少年学生交流方面，日本静冈县几乎每年都派遣“青年之翼”到浙江访问，不断地增进了两地青少年之间的了解与友谊。
　　在静冈的交流访问中，日中友好协会平野—惠主任和两所学校的校长共同作了精心安排。义乌城镇职业学校的学生和日本市商业学校学生一起上了电脑美术设计课与商场账户管理模拟实训课，双方尽管语言不通，但是大家凭借手势、中文、日语、英语、鼠标等等浑身“解数”，还是取得了相当满意的教学效果；双方结对的同学还一起参加了茶道、乐队、弓箭、手球、足球、篮球等多种多样的课外活动，尔后访日团的同学被接到日本学生家中住宿，以实际体验日本学生的家庭生活。
　　为访日学生安排的“做一天静冈人”的主题活动也别有情趣。访日同学和当地学生一起参观了久能山东照宫，游骏河湾，品尝特色海鲜，到超市购物，晚上仍跟当地学生回家住宿。通过两天两夜的交流、体验，访日同学感到收获很大，互相结下了深厚友谊，当中国学生告别时，双方同学和日本家长都依依不舍，好些人流下了眼泪……
　　
　　访日同学归国后，在他们写下的访日体会中，对日本人民的好礼、好客、好洁、守时、守规、敬老等方面的良好品德备加赞美。他们说，日本人的“好洁”令人感动，无论是公园景点、还是大街小巷，没有看到一个市容市貌管理人员，地面上却干净如洗，没有“小广告”，没有涂鸦。日本的街道多数都不太宽，但没有见到交警，行人、汽车遵照“红灯停绿灯行”，非常守规矩，汽车见到行人更是礼让三分。
　　
　　Students from Zhejiang Visit Shizuoka
　　By Shi Guowen, Wu Gaopan
　　
　　In the golden October, a group of 33 senior high school students and teachers from East China’s Zhejiang Province paid a one-week visit for academic exchanges to Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan. These students and teachers were from Zhejiang Tourism Vocational College, Yiwu Urban and Rural Vocational School, Yiwu Middle School and Shaoxing Central Vocational Education School. This is the second student group of senior high school students and teachers from Zhejiang to Shizuoka prefecture sent by Zhejiang Provincial Chinese People’s Association of Friendship with Foreign Countries.
　　
　　The delegation toured some of the most famous sightseeing sites in Japan including Disneyland, Ueno-Koen Park in Tokyo, Fuji Mountain, Arashiyama, Kinkakuji, Kiyomizudera in Shizuoka, and Castle Tenshukaku in Osaka. The group was particularly excited by Arashiyama where late premier Zhou Enlai lived for a while in his early years and wrote a short poem entitled “The Hill in the Rain” about the scenery he saw there. The poem is most popular with Chinese students because it is in their textbook.
　　Students and teachers from Zhejiang divided themselves into two groups and visited Shizuoka Municipal Senior High School and Shizuoka Municipal Commercial School respectively. Students from Yiwu Urban and Rural Vocational School mixed with students at Shizuoka Municipal Commercial School. Together they had a computer-aided design class and a simulation shopping mall accounting management class together. The Chinese students also participated in many off-class activities.
　　
　　The senior high school students from Zhejiang were put up for two nights with local families. Together Japanese kids and Chinese kids visited local scenic spots and supermarkets. When the young Chinese guests waved goodbye, they could not tear themselves away. They shed tears and so did their Japanese hosts.
　　The Zhejiang youngsters were impressed with what they experienced in Japan. In particular, they were awed by the cleanness they saw everywhere. They felt that people in Japan were courteous, hospitable, clean, punctual, law-abiding and respectful to the old people.
　　Since Zhejiang and Shizuoka officially struck up friendly relations in 1982, the two sides have had a lot of exchanges of activities in the field of business, trade, culture, education, sports and others. There have been rich fruits out of this friendly tie. In particular, students from the prefecture visit Zhejiang almost every year. These mutual visits have greatly enhanced the understanding and friendship between the youth of the two countries.
