With the transferring of Chinese society, the social moral life are changing. That has brought a corresponding change in students’ moral life, which has unique characteristics. Through the analysis of the dimensions of shifting moral life and the specific performance of student’s life, it comes out the pros and cons and the internal factors of students’moral development and an ideal construction of students’ moral life adapting to the transitional society, which should enrich moral education theory, have inspiration significance to the practice and be good for students’moral development.The value of Morality is that it can help people to manage relationships. Moral life is a process in which they need to deal with different relationships (people-to-people, individuals-to-groups and people-to-nature). For Chinese society has been transformed into a modern one since 1978, Chinese people need to dispose the connection of tradition culture and modern culture in moral life as well. Therefore, this paper takes a junior school of Longhui county in Hunan province as the main object of study, probing into students’ school moral life from four dimensions------people to people, individuals to groups, people to nature and tradition culture to modern culture------by using the method of observation, interview, documentation and comparative research.In schools, interpersonal relationships are mainly the relationship between student and teacher, student and student in students’moral life. The relationship between teachers and students is characterized by mutual infighting, indifference and monitoring from the teacher side. We can use competition relationships to describe that between students and students. Inharmonious situation in people-to-people relationship of students’ moral life is the result of modern dualism thinking and education alienation for athletic education. The key to building a harmonious interpersonal relationship is helping people convert the modern dualism thinking into "postmodern thinking" and return education to returning education to the nature of life.The relationship between individuals and groups in students’ moral life is characterized by resistance from the former and exclusive from the latter. From the individual point of view, the performance is individual self-centered, dissociating from group life and negation to the specification in groups. In terms of groups, they always exclude individuals for the development of community. Inharmonious relationship can lead to the conflict between both sides. To deal with the relationship, the key lies in "discourse" between them. Through discoursing to promote the common development of individuals and groups.The investigation of people and nature relation in students’ moral life is mainly carried on from two respects, natural development and ecological ethics of students. Dimensional obturation and temporal non-autonomy causes the "immorality" of the space and time. The basis of respecting and promoting human natural development is providing people with open living space and autonomous life time. About students’ ecological ethics, the present situation of it is grim due to the influence of materialism. The key to promote the harmonious development between man and nature is to build up students "with natural" concept and to guide students to material life.In students’ moral life, the inspection of the relationship between people and culture can be carried on from two aspects:the impact from modernization to traditional culture and the cultural shock. Because of the resistance from modern to tradition and the impact of "culture encounters",students are tend to forget the traditional culture and the local culture. Traditional culture Integrating is one way to deal with the relationship between trad ition culture and modern culture in students moral life,the other is to handle the relation between the native culture and foreign culture under the guidance of the thought "the states of equilibrium and harmony".In conclusion, construction of the ideal moral life of students during the period of social transformation should be based on conception of relational network. Management of relations between person and person, individual and group, human and nature, human andculture lies in coordination. In addition, students’ moral development is always the axis of the research about students’ moral life. The construction of ideal students’ moral life during the period of social transformation is based on students’ moral development.
