隨著美本網(wǎng)申倒計(jì)時(shí)開啟,很多美國(guó)高校陸續(xù)公布文書題目,近期UGA大學(xué)公布26fall補(bǔ)充文書題目,針對(duì)書本對(duì)成長(zhǎng)的影響,下面就隨托普仕留學(xué)老師一起來(lái)看看吧!
一、UGA大學(xué)公布26fall補(bǔ)充文書題目
據(jù)悉,UGA新申請(qǐng)季主文書依然使用Common App的文書題目,同時(shí)公布補(bǔ)充文書題目如下:
“The transition from middle to high school is a key time for students as they reach new levels of both academic and personal discovery. Please share a book (novel, non-fiction, etc.) that had a serious impact on you during this time. Please focus more on why this book made an impact on you and less on the plot/theme of the book itself (we are not looking for a book report).”
(建議200-300 words)
英譯中:從初中升入高中的過(guò)渡期,是學(xué)生在學(xué)業(yè)和個(gè)人成長(zhǎng)方面都邁上新臺(tái)階的重要階段,請(qǐng)分享一本在這個(gè)時(shí)期對(duì)你產(chǎn)生深遠(yuǎn)影響的書籍(可以是小說(shuō)、非虛構(gòu)作品等)。請(qǐng)側(cè)重說(shuō)明這本書為何對(duì)你產(chǎn)生了影響,而不是講述書的情節(jié)或主題(我們并不希望看到一篇讀書報(bào)告)。
二、UGA補(bǔ)充文書范文欣賞
附范文:
As a middle-schooler on the brink of entering high school, I was like lost cattle entering a vast social and academic wilderness. In the center, a winding, sun-soaked desert path stretched far into the horizon, beckoning my gaze with its promise of adventure and discovery. Enter The Alchemist and its magnificent idea of the “Personal Legend”– a life goal so lofty that it made locating my locker on the first day of high school appear easy. Forget about the difficulty of making new hobbies or friends; the content from this novel sure played an essential role in determining my ideology related to pursuing my future.
The protagonist enthusiastically praised the significance of believing in one’s dreams, which led my younger self down the correct path. Generating profits after extensive hours of work through my business, navigating changes in learning after COVID-19, and confronting adversity due to my darker skin color all presented difficult periods where persistence and faith were important in progress. Although self-belief was a crucial aspect of pushing through difficult times, it also motivated me to be more confident. Taking risks, from soloing in my 8th-grade jazz band to giving my crush a cringeworthy love letter, changed my belief in embracing adversity.
Furthermore, the book’s emphasis on interacting with people from different backgrounds, cultures, and belief systems mirrors my journey into the real world. Whether developing a dancing board at a Purdue summer camp or a calculus Halloween graph, collaboration enforces the ability to work with others who may share different ideas. Diverse backgrounds boosted my understanding, tolerance, and empathy while increasing my engineering career readiness. Not only was The Alchemist a great book, but it enforced critical systems that I use until this day to succeed in life. The Alchemist played an essential role in instilling new concepts I needed as an adolescent. “And when you want something, all the universe conspires you to achieve it.” Thank you, Paulo Coelho. – Josh W, Collins Hill HS.
譯文:
作為一個(gè)即將升入高中的初中生,我就像一頭迷失的牛,踏入了一片廣闊的社交和學(xué)術(shù)荒原。在這片荒原的中央,一條蜿蜒曲折、陽(yáng)光灑滿的沙漠小徑延伸至地平線,引導(dǎo)著我投去渴望的目光,仿佛預(yù)示著冒險(xiǎn)與探索的召喚。這時(shí),《牧羊少年奇幻之旅》(The Alchemist)和它關(guān)于“天命”(Personal Legend)的宏大理念出現(xiàn)在我眼前——這個(gè)人生目標(biāo)之高遠(yuǎn),甚至讓我在高中的第一天找到自己的儲(chǔ)物柜都顯得輕而易舉。結(jié)交新朋友、培養(yǎng)新愛(ài)好這些難題都不值一提,這本書的內(nèi)容在塑造我對(duì)未來(lái)追求的信念體系中起到了至關(guān)重要的作用。
書中的主人公熱情地歌頌了相信夢(mèng)想的重要性,這一理念指引著年幼的我走上了正確的道路。無(wú)論是通過(guò)自己創(chuàng)辦的小生意,在長(zhǎng)時(shí)間努力后獲得收益;還是在疫情后適應(yīng)學(xué)習(xí)方式的變化;又或者是因自己膚色較深而面對(duì)偏見,這些艱難時(shí)刻都讓我體會(huì)到堅(jiān)持與信念對(duì)于前行的意義。盡管自我信念是我度過(guò)難關(guān)的重要因素,它也促使我變得更加自信。從在八年級(jí)爵士樂(lè)隊(duì)中獨(dú)奏,到鼓起勇氣向暗戀對(duì)象遞上一封略顯尷尬的情書,我開始學(xué)會(huì)在逆境中主動(dòng)迎戰(zhàn)。
此外,這本書強(qiáng)調(diào)要與來(lái)自不同背景、文化和信仰體系的人互動(dòng),這也映照了我步入真實(shí)世界的旅程。無(wú)論是在普渡大學(xué)夏令營(yíng)中開發(fā)一個(gè)跳舞地板,還是設(shè)計(jì)一個(gè)萬(wàn)圣節(jié)主題的微積分圖形,合作讓我學(xué)會(huì)了如何與理念不同的人一起完成任務(wù)。多元的背景不僅提升了我的理解力、包容力與共情能力,也讓我在工程職業(yè)的準(zhǔn)備上邁出了關(guān)鍵一步?!赌裂蛏倌昶婊弥谩凡粌H僅是一本好書,它更幫助我建立了至今仍在使用的人生系統(tǒng)。這本書在我青春期階段傳遞了我亟需的新理念?!爱?dāng)你真心渴望某樣?xùn)|西時(shí),整個(gè)宇宙都會(huì)聯(lián)合起來(lái)幫你實(shí)現(xiàn)。”——感謝你,保羅·科而賀。
前招生官點(diǎn)評(píng):
這篇文書讓我們深入了解了學(xué)生的情感與思考,他通過(guò)富有描繪性的詞語(yǔ)表達(dá)了自己的想法。這是一篇非常出色的文章,但請(qǐng)大家了解,我們并不要求所有申請(qǐng)者都達(dá)到這樣的寫作水平。這個(gè)范文的目的,是為了向申請(qǐng)者展示如何通過(guò)具體例子、個(gè)人成長(zhǎng)和情感來(lái)表達(dá)自己。在審核申請(qǐng)文章時(shí),我們更看重的是學(xué)生的真實(shí)聲音是否傳達(dá)出來(lái),而不是他們的寫作技巧有多么嫻熟。
以上是關(guān)于UGA大學(xué)公布26fall補(bǔ)充文書題目的全部介紹,如果還想了解更多關(guān)于美國(guó)留學(xué)申請(qǐng)方面的相關(guān)知識(shí)的,歡迎隨時(shí)聯(lián)系Tops6868或在線咨詢,托普仕留學(xué)專注美國(guó)前30高校申請(qǐng),多年名校申請(qǐng)經(jīng)驗(yàn)助力你的留學(xué)申請(qǐng)。
