美国申请essay怎么写？美国大学申请essay的申请essay怎么写？ 本文从理论到范文提供了几个美国申请essay的指导意见，分为： 美国名校申请Essay写作思路 第一：明确写作目的！ 关于Essay的写作。我个人认为，我们首先要想清楚要我们写这个Essay的目的是什么？请大家先不要向下读，先思考一下这个问题 不管你的答案是什么，我个人认为，大学需要我们根据题目提交Essay的主要目的是：通过这些Essay，来了解申请者，了解申请者的思维模式、思想结构、做人做事的方式、对这个世界的看法、是否具备领导才能、是否具备创新能力、是否具备团队合作精神、是否具有爱心、是否有分享的精神、是否International或者是Global、以及是否具备责任心，等等！ 可能有人会说：如果把上面的东西写出来，那不就是personal statement或者在resume里面要体现的一些元素吗？ 的确，有些东西是可以重复体现的！因为不管是那部分的材料，我们都要体现自我，通过PS也好，Essay也好，去展现我们最美好的一面。展现我们的全部。有时候需要展现一下不足。 第二：文章形式不重要，为写作目的服务！ 那么第二个问题可能出现了：有些时候，这个Essay的题目，是需要我们写记叙文的、有些时候需要我们写议论文（占的比例最大），那么不同的文体，怎么办？ 答案很简单，我们明白我们的目标，是展示自己的思维，自己的一些优点（上文红色字体），那么不管通过何种文体，我们把我们的精神和目标，放在里面，就可以了。或者可以理解为我们现在很饥饿，那么我们怎么办呢？不管我们吃面条、吃馒头、吃面包、还是吃菜、吃肉，只要可以充饥，让我们不有饥饿感，就ok！ 表现形式不重要，重要的是文章表现的精神，即我们要体现的内容，或者是我们写这篇文章的目的！
材料审核的官员，可能（可能）仅仅有几分钟的时间，去评判是否录取我们，那么，我们是否能够在他扫过的几行里面，让他感受到我们是一个伟大的人、高尚的人、脱离了低级趣味的人，是符合他们录取要求和条件的人，是他们梦寐以求的人，然后，让他们快速的决定，给我们发录取通知书和奖学金？我们该怎么办？#p#分页标题#e# 答案是，在文章的字里行间，透露我们的精神？这个不对，因为老外不喜欢太隐晦的东西吗？不是，老外也有隐晦的时候。但是，在这个评估申请材料的过程中，老外没有时间看隐晦的东西，没有时间去读散文或者诗歌，他们更喜欢更为直白的阐述和表达。 当然有人会质疑，记叙文和议论文，我怎么直白的阐述和表达自己如何的好，如何的优秀呢？答案不难，就是我们要明白，西方人的思维是，论点让论据去支持！我们说自己好，是论点；描写事儿，是论据！而我们好有很多方面，因此，我们要在文章中，不同的地方，排列组合搭建我们的优点，然后，有一个个细节的事件，去体现我们的好。这样，文章中就可能到处存在着表现我们优点的总结性陈述，以及后门跟着支持这些论点的细节描述 注意，一定是简单的细节描述，老外没有时间去看一篇小说来了解我们这个人是多么的优秀。 以上观点，仅为个人见解，如有不当之处，请多多包涵！祝福各位要出国实现自己梦想的同学和朋友们，申请顺利，offer顺利，签证顺利！学业有成！
By Merdit Ebrani I'm a tomato and the problem is, everyone else is an onion. I discovered this from watching the grown-ups when I was young. Whenever we went out to restaurants or the movies, I would notice things about their behavior. They were so different, yet oddly enough, they all seemed to act the same way. Adults were onions, protected by a layer of skin so that no one could see who they really were. And I was a tomato, as fragile and new to the world as could be. The slightest touch left an imprint on my mind, whether it was an insinuation or an insult. And I started thinking about it. We're all born tomatoes. By age eleven, the change to onionhood is already underway. The whole process is very subtle, and it is seldom thought about afterwards. It begins with authority figures, any of the major influences in a child's life: parents, friends, school, and television. In order to feel accepted by these figures, children have to adapt to certain rules. Girls learn to be thin. Guys learn to impress girls. Everyone learns to get the right answer at school. And if they fail to meet any of these criteria, they get embarrassed. This is the "red onion" phase, halfway between tomatohood and onionhood. Soon enough, kids begin inventing ways to escape criticism. The girl can choose not to eat or she can pretend that she doesn't care. The guy can choose to imitate someone famous or he can pretend that he hates girls. The kids who usually gets the right answers at school find ways to seem like they always get the right answers; and the kids who rarely get the right answers find ways to show that they don't care. This is the skin of the onion developing. And by the beginning of high school, the mature onion has formed. With time, its skin grows thicker. Some onions even realize that they are onions, but are hesitant to peel for fear of losing their safety.#p#分页标题#e# Occasionally I'll catch myself onionizing, especially if something really bothers me. In my freshman year of high school, I was scared that I wouldn't make any friends so I convinced myself that I was the loner type. For months I refused to meet anybody because I had already decided that we wouldn't get along. It felt awful to finally confront my fear. But I didn't avoid doing it. I knew it was going to leave a bruise on me, and that was fine because it was better than covering up my problem. And once I opened up, I had an easier time meeting people than I would have ever imagined. That's the way tomatoes are. We never try to hide who we are or how we think. College, where one learns to question the status quo, seems like it would be the perfect place for a tomato. Yet I also recognize that the coming time will be a challenge. I will be confronting new ideas, new situations, and new fears, and will have to assimilate these experiences without changing the fabric of my mind. I will have to keep my vision of the world fresh and open, and not succumb to the hardening of established ideas, or onionizing, that I see occurring around me all the time. In the end, it is possible that tomatoes and onions do have something in common: a comfort in the usual way of doing things, a resistance towards change. These next four years will be a shock for me, as I explore new intellectual realms and my mind continues to mature. And although I will never stop being a tomato, I hope that college will at least help me to ripen a bit. 申请美国大学essay范文二： College Sample Essays: Too Easy to Rebel In my mother’s more angry and disillusioned moods, she often declares that my sisters and I are “smarter than is good” for us, by which she means we are too ambitious, too independent-minded, and somehow, subtly un-Chinese. At such times, I do not argue, for I realize how difficult it must be for her and my father—having to deal with children who reject their simple idea of life and threaten to drag them into a future they do not understand. For my parents, plans for our futures were very simple. We were to get good grades, go to good colleges, and become good scientists, mathematicians, or engineers. It had to do with being Chinese. But my sisters and I rejected that future, and the year I came home with Honors in English, History and Debate was a year of disillusion for my parents. It was not that they weren’t proud of my accomplishments, but merely that they had certain ideas of what was safe and solid, what we did in life. Physics, math, turning in homework, and crossing the street when Hare Krishnas were on our side—those things were safe. But the Humanities we left for Pure Americans. Unfortunately for my parents, however, the security of that world is simply not enough for me, and I have scared them more than once with what they call my “wild” treks into unfamiliar areas. I spent one afternoon interviewing the Hare Krishnas for our school newspaper—and they nearly called the police. Then, to make things worse, I decided to enter the Crystal Springs Drama contest. For my parents, acting was something Chinese girls did not do. It smacked of the bohemian, and was but a short step to drugs, debauchery, and all the dark, illicit facets of life. They never did approve of the experience—even despite my second place at Crystal Springs and my assurances that acting was, after all, no more than a whim.#p#分页标题#e# What I was doing when was moving away from the security my parents prescribed. I was motivated by my own desire to see more of what life had to offer, and by ideas I’d picked up at my Curriculum Committee meetings. This committee consisted of teachers who felt that students should learn to understand life, not memorize formulas; that somehow our college preparatory curriculum had to be made less rigid. There were English teachers who wanted to integrate Math into other more “important” science courses, and Math teachers who wanted to abolish English entirely. There were even some teachers who suggested making Transcendental Meditation a requirement. But the common denominator behind these slightly eccentric ideas was a feeling that the school should produce more thoughtful individuals, for whom life meant more than good grades and Ivy League futures. Their values were precisely the opposite of those my parents had instilled in me. It has been a difficult task indeed for me to reconcile these two opposing impulses. It would be simple enough just to rebel against all my parents expect. But I cannot afford to rebel. There is too much that is fragile—the world my parents have worked so hard to build, the security that comes with it, and a fading Chinese heritage. I realize it must be immensely frustrating for my parents, with children who are persistently “too smart” for them and their simple idea of life, living in a land they have come to consider home, and yet can never fully understand. In a way, they have stopped trying to understand it, content with their own little microcosms. It is my burden now to build my own, new world without shattering theirs; to plunge into the future without completely letting go of the past. And that is a challenge I am not at all certain I can meet. 点评Comments: 1.This is a good strong statement about the dilemma of being a part of two different cultures. The theme is backed by excellent examples of the conflict and the writing is clear, clean, and crisp. The essay then concludes with a compelling summary of the dilemma and the challenge it presents to the student. 2.A masterful job of explaining the conflict of being a child of two cultures. The writer feels strongly about the burden of being a first generation American, but struggles to understand her parents’ perspective. Ultimately she confesses implicitly that she cannot understand them and faces her own future. The language is particularly impressive:“It smacked of the bohemian,” “subtly unChinese,” and “a fading Chinese heritage.” That she is not kinder to her parents does not make her unkind, just determined 申请美国大学essay范文三：College Sample Essays: Discovering Ivy U |
