学生在申请出国读研时,文书的制作很重要。
文件的两个标准:
第一:不要太渴望完美的文字达到母语者的水平。
normal;background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">PS是用于呈现自身出色特性或历经的,原本就该用汉语,仅仅另一方无法看懂,仅有翻译成英语了。记牢,PS并不是使你修英文整体实力的,你的语言表达整体实力早已用toefl证实了。
知名的升学指导权威专家 Ana Ivy (以前在法学系做了admissionofficer),对于这一问题,她的见解是:
It’s your application, so ultimately it’s your call. But I can tell you, from my own experience as an admissions officer, that any essays that sound ‘too perfect’ from an ESL applicant willraise red flags, and then the admissions officer will come to doubt the authenticity of the rest of your material too.
You run the risk that they’ll suspect your essays were written by someone else, or that the essays have been ‘scrubbed’ to the point where not even the content is your own. And that’s a huge mark against you, so you are much better of submitting the writing in your own voice.
Nobody will hold against you that your English doesn’t sound totally native. Authenticity is a big part of what makes application essays successful, so you’ve actually made your essays worse by having them worked over by native speakers to get the English ‘perfect.’
大意是:你的第一语言表达不是英语,文书写的和外国人一样,招生官是不太信的;你文书写得这么好,其他原材料却显著无法跟上,这直接了当便是想让招生官猜疑你请人代笔。
不地道没事儿,没一个招生官吃饱了顶得规定一个非汉语的申请人写下彻底正宗的ESSAY。
第二个,不必写的过多。
斯坦福大学得出的ESSAY创作提议:
When you write your essays and “short takes” for the Common Application and Yale-specific questions, write about something that matters to you. Use your own voice. Do not worry about making a special effort to include impressive vocabulary words or overly complex sentences. If you sound like yourself and discuss something you care about, your essay will be more effective.
We know that no one can fit an entire life story into two brief essays, and we don’t expect you to try. Pick two topics that will give us an idea of who you are. It doesn’t matter which topics you choose, as long as they are meaningful to you. We have read wonderful essays on common topics and weak essays on highly unusual ones. Your perspective – the lens through which you view your topic – is far more important than the specific topic itself. In the past, students have written about family situations, ethnicity or culture, school or community events to which they have had strong reactions, people who have influenced them, significant experiences, intellectual interests, personal aspirations, or – more generally – topics that spring from the life of the imagination.
Finally: proofread, proofread, proofread! Share your essays with at least one or two people who know you well – such as a parent, teacher, counselor, or friend – and ask for feedback. Remember that you ultimately have control over your essays, and your essays should retain your own voice, but others may be able to catch mistakes that you missed and help suggest areas to cut if you are over the word limit.
大意是:你需要自身写,别担心于这些没有用的语汇与句式。
要有关键,不必觉得用一两篇文章内容把汹涌澎湃的一生都写出去,这谁也做不到。
话题不在乎平时与新奇,平常的话题可以写下非常好的ESSAY,新奇的话题还可以写得狗屎并不是。
说白了的文书并不是要写一篇偏怪不得的甲骨文字,文书并不是写一篇你看不懂的物品,由于极有可能你看不懂的,招生官也看不懂,他不知道你需要表达什么,确实无所谓了得话,去找组织吧,大家的创意文案教师在业界全是八年十年的这类工作经历,全是国外的毕业的英语本技术专业并且全是这类北外、上海外国语的教师,十分有工作经验,她们十分了解如何去表述,可以让招生官对你有感觉。
