發(fā)布時(shí)間:2022-10-28 作者:留學(xué)美國網(wǎng) 來源:留學(xué)美國網(wǎng)
 同學(xué)們?cè)诿绹魧W(xué)申請(qǐng)過程中,除了要提供成績以外,還需要提交文書材料,其中一個(gè)重要的組成部分就是Essay。Essay是我們?cè)谏暾?qǐng)美國留學(xué)的時(shí)候,在申請(qǐng)系統(tǒng)中上傳的文書,在寫作的時(shí)候要給面試官留下好印象。大多數(shù)同學(xué)和家長在Essay面談時(shí)經(jīng)常會(huì)問:申請(qǐng)美國留學(xué)Essay怎么寫?essay寫作是每一個(gè)留學(xué)生都逃不掉的難關(guān),尤其是對(duì)各位新生來說,不僅是語言上的不適應(yīng),還有對(duì)Essay格式的不了解。

接下來我們重點(diǎn)了解Essay的格式和注意事項(xiàng)。
一、了解Essay的框架結(jié)構(gòu)。
1、Introduction (介紹)
一般占文章總篇幅的10%左右,作為Essay的緒論,需要突出論文的核心內(nèi)容,吸引讀者的閱讀興趣。
一般圍繞以下幾點(diǎn)進(jìn)行寫作:
?、佟?duì)topic的背景進(jìn)行介紹,簡述選題的原因,以及研究的價(jià)值和意義。
?、凇≌f明研究目標(biāo),概述論文的中心論點(diǎn)。
③ 結(jié)尾介紹文章將采用什么結(jié)構(gòu)來完成研究目標(biāo)。
不同類型的Essay會(huì)在此結(jié)構(gòu)基礎(chǔ)上有所變化,可能會(huì)要求某部分內(nèi)容介紹更詳細(xì)或者調(diào)整一些要素,通常情況下Introduction部分內(nèi)容結(jié)構(gòu)是比較固定的。
2、 Main Body (主體)
一般占文章總篇幅的80%左右,是一篇Essay至關(guān)重要的部分,要放在開始去寫。body部分是對(duì)題目的論述,需要列舉一系列的論據(jù)論證來回答問題。
一般圍繞以下幾點(diǎn)進(jìn)行寫作:
① 這一段是關(guān)于什么的?——介紹該觀點(diǎn)
?、凇∵@到底是什么?——明確概念
?、邸∧銓?duì)此的論點(diǎn)是什么(與問題有關(guān))?——提供一個(gè)論點(diǎn)
?、堋∧愕淖C據(jù)是什么?——提供并討論證據(jù)
?、荨〗Y(jié)論是什么(與問題有關(guān))?—-得出研究的觀點(diǎn)
一篇高分Essay需要有清晰的main ideas,且各段落間邏輯關(guān)聯(lián)性要強(qiáng)。此外,主體部分也是個(gè)人觀點(diǎn)和文獻(xiàn)引用的體現(xiàn)。

3、Conclusion (結(jié)論)
一般占文章總篇幅的10%左右,Conclusion相對(duì)比較簡單,通過簡單的一兩句話概括文章的主要觀點(diǎn),重點(diǎn)體現(xiàn)結(jié)論即可。
一般圍繞以下幾個(gè)點(diǎn)進(jìn)行寫作:
?、佟?duì)論文所研究的內(nèi)容、結(jié)果及意義進(jìn)行總結(jié)概述。
?、凇⊙芯渴褂昧耸裁捶椒ǎ贸隽耸裁唇Y(jié)論。
?、邸〗Y(jié)論具有什么實(shí)用價(jià)值,有什么創(chuàng)新成果或見解,能解決哪些實(shí)際問題,應(yīng)用前景如何。
?、堋⊙芯看嬖诘娜毕莺筒蛔悖茨男┭芯繘]有做,哪些研究可以做的更好等。
二、Essay寫作的注意事項(xiàng)
1、怎么讓我的Essay和別人的不一樣?
Q:特意去做一些別人沒有的活動(dòng),可以嗎?
A:有些同學(xué)為了突出自己,會(huì)去做一些別人沒有做過的事情,來吸引面試官的眼球。但是大家要注意,面試官想看到的,其實(shí)不是你做了什么和別人不一樣的事,而是你有沒有和別人不一樣的收獲,如果只寫“我”如何努力去完成一項(xiàng)別人沒做過的事情,這只是寫出了“結(jié)果”,過程中的體會(huì)和反思如果不曾提及,那跟描述一些平凡的事情,沒有太大的區(qū)別。
2.、要在Essay里突出我的成績嗎?
Q:我有很好的成績,寫進(jìn)Essay里會(huì)不會(huì)加分?
A:官方網(wǎng)站明確表示,希望學(xué)生在主Essay中分享除考試、課程和成績以外的故事。主Essay的目的是向申請(qǐng)?jiān)盒=榻B自己。(The Common App is designed to help students introduce themselves to colleges and universities.)其中,面試官最想看的其實(shí)是你的“品質(zhì)”、“能力”和“主張”。

Q:可以寫我從小就給某孤兒院捐錢來表現(xiàn)我的愛心和對(duì)社會(huì)的貢獻(xiàn)嗎?
A:不能。因?yàn)樯暾?qǐng)者的身份是高中生,大多數(shù)時(shí)候招生官是默認(rèn)這個(gè)年齡段的學(xué)生是還沒有自己掙錢的能力的。如果是數(shù)額過大,一般會(huì)默認(rèn)這是將父母的努力嫁接到自己身上,這并不符合題目的要求。那我們可以怎么轉(zhuǎn)化這個(gè)捐贈(zèng)的事情呢?這就要回顧自己是否在真的在慈善項(xiàng)目做了實(shí)事,列舉出細(xì)節(jié)補(bǔ)充到故事中展示自己的特質(zhì)。

3、寫作的時(shí)候有哪些注意事項(xiàng)呢
Q:可以用中文寫然后機(jī)器翻譯嗎?
A:萬萬不可。中文和英文的結(jié)構(gòu)是有很大區(qū)別的。如果直接使用機(jī)翻Essay,往往招生官會(huì)看不懂你想表達(dá)的內(nèi)容或覺得內(nèi)容結(jié)構(gòu)混亂。一定要用英文的思維去檢查終稿,再提交。
Q:Common主Essay可以偏口語化寫作嗎?
A:Common不可,UC可。Common主Essay需要注意語言規(guī)范,避免出現(xiàn)wanna, cause’, dude或網(wǎng)絡(luò)詞匯等口頭用語。
三、斯坦福大學(xué)錄取Essay范文
When my parents met, my mom was a 16-year-old, straight-A student from Indiana and my father was a 26-year-old convenience store employee. "Don't date him," they told her. "He's too old for you, and it will be nothing but trouble." My mom didn't listen.
But those people were right.He was nothing but trouble. He isolated my mother from her family and convinced her that things would be better if she moved in with him. Before long, she was pregnant with me. "Don't have the baby," they told her. "He'll just leave and you'll be raising the baby on your own." My mom didn't listen.
But those people were right.My father left shortly after I was born, and she was alone with me at 17 years old. "Don't drop out of school to raise the baby," they told her. "It will be too hard and you won't be able to make to make it work without an education." My mom didn't listen.
But those people were right. By the time I was in middle school, my mother was selling drugs to pay the bills, and she used them as well. She thought I didn't know, but she wasn't very good at hiding it. "The daughter is going to end up just like the mother," they said. "Her father's gone and her mom's a drug dealer, she'll never amount to anything."
But those people were wrong.
I may not have had parents to guide me, but I had books that showed me a better way. I could see myself in the characters and experience the same range of emotions that I read on each page. I learned about things that were possible with hard work, and envisioned worlds that existed only in fantasy. But in every book, I got inspiration.
Whereas some people saw tragedy when they read about Anne Shirley being sent to Green Gables, I saw a young woman who put in the work to achieve her goals and disprove everyone who made assumptions about her. And when I read about Mary Lennox's quest to find the Secret Garden, I didn't see a spoiled rich girl. Instead, I saw a young woman who used imagination and inspiration to create her own happy endings.
Reading was the one thing I could do without having to ask for money, or a ride to the bookstore. I could check out an eBook from my library and download it right to my phone as I sat on my front porch. I was able to tune out everything else going on in my life and focus on what was possible. And it wasn't just the characters who inspired me, but the writers as well. I decided that if these strangers could create stories that captivated and motivated readers, then I could do it too.
Instead of reading every day, I started writing. Paragraphs became pages, which became chapters. By the time summer arrived, I had written an entire book with 36 chapters and an array of adventures. I hope to share the book with young adults in the future so they can be as inspired by my words as I have been by the writing of others.
But my book isn't ready for its debut yet. It sits in a file on my computer, waiting for the right time to bring it to light. What's important is that it's there, telling the story of a young girl who overcame her challenges and went on to life of strength. Her family's situation didn't pre-define her, and the opinions of others didn't shape who she became.
It's a story that I'm proud to have written, and I'm not worried about whether anyone ever reads it. What matters is that it's possible for a girl like me to create my own ending.
