Short Answer

Please select three of the following five prompts and provide a response of approximately 150 words to each.Your responses will be read by Notre Dame admissions counselors as we seek to learn more about you.We encourage you to use personal examples, anecdotes, or anything that helps differentiate you from your peers.1.Undergraduates at Notre Dame have the opportunity to engage in original research where they strive to make a professional contribution in their field.A typical summer grant of $5,000 enables students to pursue their passions in a full range of disciplines: from the arts, humanities and architecture to science, engineering and business.If you were given a $5,000 grant to study a topic, what would you choose to research and why?

Doing a research on Iphone4's successful marketing in China must be interesting.The Apple Company has been looking for innovative ways to meet new and existing consumer’s needs.The model before Iphone4 did not sell well in China.However, Iphone4 has achieved a great increase in consumer demand.I can see Iphone4 everywhere in China.It was even sold out immediately after it appeared in the on-line Apple store.There must be some secrets of the new selling model of Iphone4.I would spend the grant to find the answer.2.Notre Dame’s mission statement emphasizes an education should “create a sense of human solidarity and concern for the common good that will bear fruit as learning becomes service to justice." Describe an experience that engaged you both intellectually and morally.I had an experience ofbeing a volunteer in a library for two months.I felt proud of myselfdoing the job.I looked for books for readers, and helped the librarians with their work.It was just different to be avolunteer from a reader in the library, for serving the public made me happier and trained me to be more polite.3.Many people form a list of once-in-a-lifetime activities to accomplish.For example, individuals on the admissions staff hope to visit all the national parks, publish a fiction novel or waddle with penguins in Antarctica.What are a few of the items on your list?

I'm interested in many things.Ifthere were some once-in-a-lifetime activities to accomplish, then building a band would be the first choice on my list.I love music and playing the piano.It would be gorgeous to work with several friends sharing the same ambition and dream.The second thing may be travelling abroad.I believe that travelling is a way and part of learning.It would be even moreamazing to have experience living and studying in a different country, even only once, in my lifetime.4.You have 150 words.Take a risk.The willingness to take a risk demonstrates a positive attitude to life.Whatever the result is, the process and mood in taking a risk are more attractive.When I was traveling in Thailand with my parents at the age of five, I decided to take a flight in a special fire balloon linked by a rope to a speedboat.The tour guide said I was the youngest one ever to take that flight.Without any fear or hesitation, I flew into the intoxicating sky.The boat fast moving, the sea breeze swaying, and the golden sunshine setting off the greenish orchid sea constituted a view like paradise.The flying experience was glorious and I was totally immersed in that exciting delight.Growing up, I now understand that only by taking a risk can I see what other people cannot see and enjoy what they cannot enjoy.5.Why are you interested in attending the University of Notre Dame?

The University of Notre Dame first came into my mind when I saw the movie Rudy in my middle school.The fascinating view of the Notre Dame campus and the combatant spirit of the football team were so appealing to me that I decided at once to plan to pursue my academic enthusiasm in this university.The fairy tale about Rudy, the ocean of knowledge and courage it has, the Mendoza College of Business with its traditions and teaching of values and morals, all attract me..I am particularly interested in the business school and I am going to apply to it.As is well known, the lack of moral sense and principles of food producers in China has resulted in food poisoning and the loss of trust from the public.I hope, through my own efforts, I can convert some businessmen’s moral values and thus do something to help the Chinese people.

第三篇：美國高中申請需趁早,文書切忌“中國化”

美國高中申請需趁早，文書切忌“中國化”

近年來，赴美國留學讀高中的學生越來越多，美國高中學校如何申請？

美國的中學分為公立和私立兩種，公立中學由政府資助供當?shù)貙W生就讀，不需費用。美國法律規(guī)定：公立中學允許外籍學生就讀的最長期限是一年，只有少量國際學生以交換生的形式就讀。

私立中學，隸屬于私人機構或宗教團體，由民間出資，供當?shù)鼗蛲饧畬W生就讀。在美國有近2000所獲得認證的私立中學，而著名的私立中學由幾百所。美國私立中學一年的費用是一萬多至四萬多美元不等，著名私立中學通常設有才華獎學金和助學金。除了公派留學和交換生外，中國學生赴美讀高中一般都申請美國的私立高中。

美國憑借其優(yōu)越的教育體制，良好的社會環(huán)境成為諸多中國家庭的首選。許多家長在為孩子選擇學校的時候都會有這樣那樣的考慮，美國高中申請難、入學難的現(xiàn)象卻日益突出，那么在申請美國高中過程中都有哪些“絆腳石”呢?

其一：錄取名額有限，采用先到先得

美國留學專家表示，近年來留學美國高中的人數(shù)在不斷攀升，申請的激烈程度也隨之增加。但由于美國高校錄取名額有限，并且采用先申請先錄取的原則，所以一旦滿額，再優(yōu)秀的學生也申請不成。其二：申請時間太晚，導致準備不充分

留學專家發(fā)現(xiàn)，有一種現(xiàn)象很突出，那就是由于申請時間過晚，學生錯過了最佳的入學期限。一般來說，留學美國高中和本科的程序

大致相同，要通過提交申請、語言測試、面試、收到錄取通知書、申請簽證、成行等幾個重要環(huán)節(jié)。值得注意的是，面試是申請美國高中留學非常重要的一個環(huán)節(jié)，大多數(shù)院校都會對申請人進行電話面試或現(xiàn)場面試，有的甚至會要求申請人直接去學校進行面試。所以，僅準備和約定面試就要花去很多時間。此外，美國部分私立高中還需要學生提供SLEP考試成績（美國中學英文能力測試），學生備考也將花費一段時間。

即使學生成績十分優(yōu)異，如果錯過了最佳申請時間也會導致美國高中留學的失敗。所以，留學專家提醒，申請美國高中應該比申請本科和碩士提前更長的時間，以一年到一年半較為合適。

其三：申請材料“中國化”，不適合美國高中的口味

美國高中在錄用學生時比較看重申請人的綜合水平以及學習潛力，成績優(yōu)秀只是參考因素之一。但很多申請美國高中留學的中國學生在填寫申請材料時提及最多的就是學習成績多么優(yōu)秀，而在社會實踐、綜合能力、興趣愛好等方面卻惜墨如金，這對申請是極為不利的。此外，學生在突出自己優(yōu)勢的時候要有“真憑實據(jù)”，例如要舉例說明在何時何地得過什么獎，而不能只是夸夸其談。需要注意的是：推薦信、個人陳述、語言成績等都是非常重要的，學生在準備材料時一定要細心。

以上就是關于美國高中留學介紹，準備去美國留學讀高中的朋友可以參考一下。

第四篇：申請美國本科文書寫作技巧

申請美國本科文書寫作技巧

申請美國本科留學的人們應該對于文書的重要性是心知肚明的，留學文書的寫作并不像我們平時協(xié)作為，講究高超的寫作手法，華麗的辭藻運用，美國大學在看文書的時候，往往更重視留學文書的內(nèi)涵。那么申請美國本科留學文書寫作技巧有哪些呢？

南京加成留學老師說隨著當前出國留學越來越理性，越來越多的國內(nèi)學生從高一甚至初中就開始著手進行托?？荚?、美國高考SAT以及課外活動的準備。經(jīng)過初

三、高一以及高二三年的準備，可以說國內(nèi)申請人的SAT成績、托福成績、GPA（平均成績）以及課外活動基本已經(jīng)成形，Essay寫作相當于將這些成績和所做過的活動結合起來，透過Essay予以呈現(xiàn)，這也是大學對學生初步認識和考察的依據(jù)。簡而言之，就是把所有的菜料都準備齊全了，炒出什么樣的菜，靠的就是Essay了。

Essay是學生向美國大學展示自我個性與風采的重要申請材料。但是，很多中國學生并不明確如何撰寫符合美國大學審查標準的Essay。由于美國大學的入學體制不同于中國大學，完全以高考成績來決定成敗、選擇學生。美國的大學，尤其是常春藤聯(lián)盟名校等一流的大學更加注重學生的個性與特質。對于一個普通的高中生，在沒有取得巨大成功或者成就的情況下，是否具有未來成功的潛力是美國名校最看重的。因此，SAT滿分的學生或GPA成績非常高的學生，不一定能進入理想的學校，而許多成績不是非常優(yōu)異的學生卻能夠進入一流名校。這就是美國大學選擇學生的特色。如何寫出一篇把自己個人特色、優(yōu)勢表達得非常出色、非常到位的Essay，就扮演了舉足輕重的角色。

據(jù)悉，美國高校的入學審查官平均花在一個學生Essay自傳上的時間是5分鐘。如何通過Essay的開頭，能夠讓Essay的審查官很清晰明了地看到申請人過去三年的經(jīng)歷與想法，并且有興趣進一步深入了解這個學生，是很重要的。但是，Essay必須根據(jù)學生三年來經(jīng)歷的事實進行撰寫，絕不可以憑空假造。這種Essay的表達，看似容易，其實是很復雜的，因為每個學校的要求并不是整齊劃一的，沒有一個共同的標準，在挑選國際留學生時每所高校會有自己的偏好。因此，學生在進行Essay寫作時，一定要在圍繞、突現(xiàn)自身亮點、特質的基礎上也要綜合考慮所申請大學的“口味”，這樣才會讓自己在美國名校申請的激烈競爭中脫穎而出。

I wake up every morning to its rich scent.My parents cannot start the day with out it.I often wait in line and pay $3.85 to buy it.The senior lodge at my school is littered with empty Starbucks cups containing only the remnants of skim lattes, , and mocha frapuccinos.Coffee is a staple of American life that many take for granted, but few take the time to think about how they get it.In the rural village of Cadillo in the Dominican Republic, the people’s livelihood depends on coffee.Rows of green coffee plants line steep hills and scatter the countryside.The people there pick and sell the coffee beans but receive little profit for their hard work.During the week I spent in Cadilloplaying , I witnessed the poverty these coffee farmers endure.Their homes are small and dark, furnished with only a few wooden chairs, a table and a few beds.There is no lawyers and electricity in Cadillo and I especially remember the emptiness of the village at night, when I could only vaguely see the faces I illuminated with my flashlight.I can still see the shiny metal bowl in which they used to bathe, and Jose, a neighbor who was missing several teeth because like most people in Cadillo, he lacks a toothbrush and could not afford a.These images still burn in my mind, but it was the people of Cadillo more than anything who opened my eyes to the importance of social justice.Before I met them it was just a concept I heard about a few times a year at church when a missionary would come to speak about the poor people in Africa or South America and explain why it was our duty to help them.These people were far removed.A small fraction of my weekly allowance, once a year, and I could remove them from my mind.After living for a week with a family in Cadillo, however, I understood for the first time that it was real people leading these lives.The family I stayed with there took me in as part of their family and gave me a taste of their life.I remember my Dominican father, Barilla’s face as he played guitar and how he laughed kindly when I struggled to play the chords he had taught me.I could feel the warmth and sincerity of my Dominican mother, Marsela, when she sat and talked with me about my home and family after a long day of work.And I will always remember how much fun I had playing catch or blowing bubbles with their two children, Jendi and Andisco.I will not forget the images I saw or the people I encountered.They made me realize that my work does not end with the school I helped build, the holes I helped dig, or the roads I helped widen.They showed me that there are real, wonderful people being treated unjustly and that I cannot sit back and let that happen.I cannot be silent when I know that people are getting rich off the coffee Barilla receives so little for.It is my responsibility to be active, to teach what I have learned, to fight injustices in my community and the world.I am not sure if I will ever visit Cadillo again but I do know that I can continue what I started there.I can tell people what I saw and spread awareness about injustice in the world.I can volunteer in my own

community to help make changes at home and fundraise to aid third world countries.And tomorrow, after I wake up to the smell of fresh coffee, I can make a difference.啄木鳥教育編譯：我每天早晨在它的濃郁的香氣中醒來;沒有它，我父母就沒辦法開始新一天的工作生活;我常常排著隊，然后付上3.85美元買到它。我學校的高級旅館里堆滿了空的星巴克杯子，杯子里還有拿鐵、摩卡的殘留物?？Х仁敲绹松畹囊徊糠?，許多人理所當然的享受著，很少有人花時間想過咖啡是怎么來的。

在多米尼加共和國有一個農(nóng)村叫Cadillo，當?shù)鼐用褓囈陨嫷闹挥锌Х?。一排排綠色的咖啡樹長在陡峭的山坡上、圍著村子分散開來。人們采摘咖啡豆，然后賣出，這樣辛苦的勞作只換來微薄的收入。

我在Cadillo游玩過一個星期，我親眼目睹了這些種植咖啡的農(nóng)民們所忍受的貧困。他們的房子小、而且陰暗，里面的家具只有幾張木頭做的椅子、一張桌子及幾張床。這里沒有律師，沒有電。我尤其記得Cadillo村里晚上的空寂，那些晚上，我只能通過我的手電筒微弱的光看到模糊的臉。我還記得他們洗漱用的磨得發(fā)亮的金屬盆。Jose是我在村里住的那一家的鄰居，他像Cadillo村許多人一樣缺了幾顆牙齒，他沒有牙刷，因為買不起。

這些畫面仍然在我的腦海里翻滾，但正是Cadillo村里的人比其他所有更讓我見識到社會公平的重要性。在我遇到他們之前，“”社會公平”只是一個概念，每年在教堂里會聽到幾次，牧師會說非洲及南美的窮苦難民以及我們?yōu)槭裁从辛x務幫助他們。這些人離我這么遙遠，盡管以前我會從每個星期的費用省下一點，每年把省下來的錢捐一次出去。然而，在我同Cadillo的人們生活了一個星期后，我才第一次理解到真有人是這樣生活著。

我在Cadillo生活的那家人待我如親人，讓我體驗了一番他們的生活是什么樣子。我記得我的多米尼加爸爸Barilla。他彈吉他時的模樣，他教我學樂器以及看我費勁拉弦時怎么溫和地笑我。我能感受到我多米尼加媽媽Marsela的溫暖和真誠，在她一天的長時間勞作之后，她坐下來和我嘮家常，談我的家鄉(xiāng)、我的家人。我也將永遠記得我和他們的兩個孩子Jendi、Andisco追逐打鬧吹泡泡的樂趣。

我永遠不會忘記這些畫面，不會忘記我遇到的人。是他們讓我意識到我的責任不僅僅是幫助建設學校、挖洞種樹和修寬道路。他們讓我真實的看到這樣一群善良的人受到不平等的對待，而我不能坐視不理。看到有人從咖啡獲取暴利而我的多米尼加爸爸卻得到很少，我無法沉默。我要積極主動、去教給別人我所學到的，去為我生活在的社區(qū)以及世界出現(xiàn)的不平等斗爭，這是我的職責。

我不確定我以后是否還會去Cadillo，我能確定的是我會將從那里得到的繼續(xù)下去。我會把我看到的告訴他人，讓大家意識到這世界存在的不平等事實。我會在我生活的周邊社區(qū)志愿服務，改變家鄉(xiāng)，會為第三世界募捐。而當我明天聞著咖啡的香氣中醒來，我知道我能為世界變美好做一點貢獻
