通过在兰考县展览馆的参观，我了解到关于焦裕禄的详细情况，他是中国的公务员和共产党党员，在60年代和70年代为消除贫困和改善农村地区的生活条件做出了贡献。他始终坚持“为人民服务”并无私奉献了他的一生，因此他被视为中国的英雄。
我了解到，在20世纪60年代和70年代，他曾担任河南省兰考县委书记。而在他任职期间，他更注重通过解决贫困、教育和医疗等问题来改善农村居民的生活条件。
焦裕禄对公共服务的奉献和对基层发展的关注为他赢得了当地人民的尊重和钦佩。他亲力亲为为村民解决问题，经常走访村庄并亲自检查项目，以确保项目的成功。
正如一位导游所提到的，他最引人注目的成就之一是他在兰考县成功开展了防治水涝的工程，这长期以来一直是当地农民的一个问题。他动员居民、整合资源建造排水系统和运河，大大减少了被淹没的农田。
焦裕禄还孜孜不倦地改善兰考的教育，组织建造新的学校，促进儿童和成人的扫盲计划。他认识到，教育对于打破农村地区的贫困循环至关重要。我要说的是，焦裕禄在他的工作基础上开启了整个中国的扶贫进程，树立了榜样。
不幸的是，焦裕禄在兰考的工作使他的健康受到影响，1964年他死于肝癌，年仅42岁。尽管他去世了，但他的精神继续激励着其他人。今天，焦裕禄被铭记为中国人民的英雄，他用实际行动证明，即使面对艰巨的挑战，只要甘于奉献，努力工作，就有可能给他人生活带来有意义的改变。
其次，我想特别谈谈由兰考县审计局代表所做的扶贫审计报告和我们走访村庄等实践学习活动。中国能够在短时间内帮助其人民摆脱贫困生活，依赖于习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想体系、依赖于焦裕禄为代表的共产党人奠定的脱贫攻坚基础，依赖于全体公民的集思广益和集体努力。贫困是全球共同面临的一个挑战，许多国家仍在努力寻找解决方案。看到中国已经实现了全面脱贫，真是令人惊叹。我对村民的生活，特别是村里的“幸福街”印象深刻。
最后，这次旅行许多印象深刻的亮点还包括焦裕禄种下的泡桐树、用泡桐树制作的古琴、以及我们在清明上河园的参观。非常感谢中国审计署和南京审计大学给我们带来这样的难忘经历，我们非常感激并期待更多这样的学习项目，这将使我们更好地了解我们在学校中所学习的内容、了解中国文化和其他基本领导技能。我期待着下一次更长时间的旅行。再次感谢这个机会，我们都努力学习焦裕禄的精神，他是我们所有人的英雄和榜样。

My Personal experience and takeaways from the study trip in Henan Province
Through the tour at the exhibition hall, I got to know details about comrade Jiao Yulu and that he was a Chinesepublic servant and Communist Party member knownfor his effortsto combat poverty and improve living conditions in rural areas during the ‘60s and ‘70s. He was regarded as a hero in China for his selflessdedication to public service and his popular slogan Serve the People.
I learned that he served as the Party Secretary of Lankao county in Henan province during the 1960s and 1970s. And during his time, he was more focused on improving the living conditions of rural residents by addressing issues such as poverty, education, and healthcare.
Jiao's dedication to public service and his focus on grassroots development earned him the respect and admiration of local residents. He was knownfor his hands-onapproach to problem-solving, often visitingvillages and personally inspecting projects to ensure their success.
As one of the tour guides mentioned, one of his most notable achievements was his successful campaign to combat water-logging in Lankao, which had long been a problem for local farmers. He mobilized residents and resources to build drainage systems and canals, which significantly reduced the amount of flooded farmland, and all these were shown in the exhibition hall.
Jiao also worked tirelessly to improve education in Lankao, organizing the construction of newschools and promoting literacy programs for both children and adults. He recognized that educationwas crucial to breaking the cycle of poverty in rural areas. I will say, comrade Jiao started the process of poverty alleviation in the whole of China based on his works and how people have tried to emulatehis service to humanity.
Unfortunately, Jiao Yulu’s work in Lankao took a toll on his health, and he died of liver cancer in 1964 at the age of 42. Despitehis death, his legacy continuesto inspire others.Today, Jiao Yulu is remembered as a hero of the Chinese people. His example shows that with dedication and hard work, it is possible to make a meaningful differencein the lives of others,even in the face of daunting challenges.
Secondly, I’ll like to reflect particularly on the poverty alleviation audit presentation done by representative of the Lankao County Audit Bureau. This plus the walk throughthe village to me is considered a hands on practical knowledge of what we are taught in the classroom. It’s quite interesting to know that President Xi Jinpingwas able to transform the lives of the citizens within a very short period of time. This couldn’tbe possible without a system in place. It’s the system that President Xi built and the foundationof comrade Yulu, the mobilization and collective efforts and capacity of the citizens that made this possible. This is a global challenge that many countries around the world are still trying to find solutions to and to see that China has accomplished that is amazing. I was very much impressed by the livelihood of the villagersespecially on “Happiness street”.
To conclude, this narrative would be incomplete if I don’t mention the Paulownia tree comrade Jiao Yulu planted, the “Guqin” musical instruments made from the paulownia tree and lastly our visit at the Millennium City Park. These moments were the highlight of the trip for me. Big thanks to CNAO and Nanjing Audit Universityfor this great experience and like I mentioned in the feedbacksession of the trip, we appreciate this so highly and will recommend more of these study programswhich will give us a better understanding of what we are learning in school, understanding the Chinese culture and other basic leadership skills.I am definitely looking forwardto another trip with an extended duration. Thanks again for this opportunity as we all strive to emulate the leadership style of comradeJiao Yulu, a hero to all of us.
