如何撰寫(xiě)美國(guó)大學(xué)申請(qǐng)文書(shū)便是準(zhǔn)留學(xué)生們最為關(guān)心的重要內(nèi)容之一。
而美國(guó)大學(xué)文書(shū)材料是申請(qǐng)者提交的“軟實(shí)力”證明,因此一份漂亮給力的留學(xué)文書(shū),能對(duì)美國(guó)名校申請(qǐng)起著至關(guān)重要的作用。那美國(guó)留學(xué)文書(shū)寫(xiě)作技巧有哪些呢?下面從留學(xué)文書(shū)寫(xiě)作要點(diǎn)為大家指點(diǎn)迷津。拿到眾多材料證明,不知道如何下筆?怎樣寫(xiě)好美國(guó)留學(xué)申請(qǐng)文書(shū)呢?美國(guó)大學(xué)文書(shū)材料有哪些技巧和要點(diǎn)呢?據(jù)留學(xué)圈內(nèi)資深文書(shū)老師經(jīng)驗(yàn)來(lái)看,一般來(lái)說(shuō),只要抓住下面這幾大寫(xiě)作要點(diǎn),那將會(huì)對(duì)大家的文書(shū)撰寫(xiě)有很大幫助:A、不要在開(kāi)頭就為全文做好了總結(jié),有些同學(xué)一開(kāi)頭就寫(xiě),去年暑假我參加了殘奧會(huì)志愿者活動(dòng),從這次活動(dòng)中我學(xué)會(huì)了如何與他人溝通協(xié)調(diào)。問(wèn)問(wèn)自己為什么別人在看了你的開(kāi)頭后還愿意繼續(xù)讀完全文,如果開(kāi)頭就做好總結(jié),那也沒(méi)有必要讀完全文了。B、開(kāi)頭可以留下點(diǎn)懸念,陰謀。記住:每篇文章必須有且只能有一個(gè)focus。要有過(guò)渡和承接,使得文章進(jìn)展地流暢,這些過(guò)渡不一定要是in addition, therefore,so之類(lèi)的寫(xiě)雅思作文用的詞。過(guò)渡的要自然。C、美國(guó)大學(xué)留學(xué)文書(shū)寫(xiě)作要獨(dú)創(chuàng)、新穎。如果寫(xiě)得比較有創(chuàng)意,再枯燥的主題也能寫(xiě)出彩。比如:寫(xiě)自己參加體操比賽的經(jīng)歷,有人開(kāi)頭平鋪直敘:我為了參加某次體操比賽,努力訓(xùn)練了許多周。很boring,但若寫(xiě)成:我在清晨五點(diǎn)鐘醒來(lái),投入到汗水,眼淚,鮮血混成的高低杠中去,因?yàn)槲覊?mèng)想著要把省體操比賽戰(zhàn)利品捧回到我的家鄉(xiāng)來(lái)。一下子就奪人眼球了。做自己,寫(xiě)自己。除了描述出對(duì)你而言有意義的經(jīng)歷事件之外,也寫(xiě)出你的感悟和思想。D、不要太刻意弄許多大詞,新詞,怪詞。有些同學(xué)的文章老師需要邊翻著詞典才能讀得懂。實(shí)在沒(méi)有太多必要。其實(shí)你的語(yǔ)言功底TOEFL/SAT分?jǐn)?shù)證實(shí)地更有效。E、使用些形象化的描述,創(chuàng)造比較生動(dòng)的意象。因?yàn)檎恼滦枰沲r活的經(jīng)歷作為evidence。F、結(jié)尾也很重要,結(jié)尾是給招生官留下最后印象的一部分。不要使用in "in conclusion, in summary, toconclude之類(lèi)的總結(jié)詞。建議大家寫(xiě)得稍微幽默一點(diǎn),招生官每天讀文章讀的很累,好不容易把你文章看完了,如果能在最后讓他幽默一笑,嘴角泛上一絲笑容的話,說(shuō)不定就讓他記憶深刻了??梢郧擅畹暮烷_(kāi)頭相呼應(yīng)一下。美國(guó)大學(xué)留學(xué)文書(shū)范文(一)、自我陳述、開(kāi)門(mén)見(jiàn)山、直入主題型I am applying for admission to the Ph.D. program in Electrical and Computer Engineering, at the University of California, Berkeley. I present my research experience and study objectives in this statement of purpose. I would like to build on my solid education and experience as an engineer for a Ph. D. degree in computer science at a distinguished university. I wish in particular to be trained at an advanced level in software systems, database systems, applied-AI and knowledge-based systems. My ultimate goal is to become a professor teaching computer science at a Chinese university. I believe that advanced training in a quality graduate program will help me realize my goal.(二)、敘述故事,說(shuō)理型 ,敘述自己的家庭故事My father is a chartered accountant and my mother is a banker. During my days at Engineering College I used to go to my father's office and help him manage his portfolio of equities and other financial instruments. This was the time I learnt the first lesson of finance from my father i.e. risk and return are proportionate. In 1998 when I was in the second year the China stock market crashed. But fortunately, my father had a well-diversified portfolio because of which our returns were protected from the downside risk. This was when I learnt the second principle of finance from my father i.e. diversification reduces risk. While I understood these two principles intuitively, it produced in me a strong urge to learn and understand the complex theory behind the working of Finance. This, I believe, was a turning point in my career. I made up my mind to pursue a career in Finance and hence decided to do a Masters program in Business Administration.這種申請(qǐng)美國(guó)大學(xué)文書(shū)寫(xiě)法的優(yōu)點(diǎn):聯(lián)系家庭,敘述自己。給人感覺(jué)親切。這種美國(guó)留學(xué)文書(shū)寫(xiě)作寫(xiě)法的缺點(diǎn):無(wú)法引起讀者的強(qiáng)烈興趣。(三)、引用諺語(yǔ)、名言等。When asked how to manage to mask remarkable statues, the French sculptor Auguste Rodin answered, “I choose a block of marble and chop off whatever I don't need.(法國(guó)雕塑家羅丹說(shuō):“給我一塊大理石,把多余的去掉?!?” For me, life is just a block of marble---whether the marble can be turned into a remarkable statue depends on your natural talents, diligence and a sense of duty. During over four years’ my college life, I have been dreaming of being a perfect female researcher so that I can enhance more young girls’ confidence in scientific research and encourage them to promote the development of science as men do. For Knowledge Itself Is Power.This is one of my favorite precepts and at this point in my life when I am about to complete my graduation and my future spreads in front of me like a dream, this adage has never influenced my life more than this before.這種寫(xiě)法的優(yōu)點(diǎn):引用諺語(yǔ)、名言來(lái)引出自己的觀點(diǎn),可以顯示出作者有很強(qiáng)的文化底蘊(yùn)。這種寫(xiě)法的缺點(diǎn):沒(méi)有辦法表現(xiàn)突出的個(gè)人特色。
