It’ s a little bit like the difference between being famous and infamous. We all know that a truthful, wellwritten essay that shows how the student has matured is sometimes shared among admissions staffers. 36 So how do you make your essay famous instead of infamous? Here are some basic tips to avoid that infamous essay: ● Avoid the generic(概括的 )and get specific. Don’ t write that you’ re“ fullydeveloped” or that“ many people have impacted” you. 37 ● Don39。 t repeat information that is elsewhere in your application. 38 It is important for the student to use every opportunity to show who they are and impress the admissions office. ● 39 If you have gone through difficult circumstances, you should share your story. But don39。 t blame others. It’ s important to show perseverance(毅力 ). A better essay will talk about how you have dealt with and overe the obstacles you came across. ● Don’ t talk about rankings. Many students love focusing on the numbers when they are writing their“ why this college” essay. 40 Obviously schools are aware of their rankings. They want to know why you want to attend. A. They believe they are praising the college by mentioning the fact that the college is highly ranked. B. It also shows the reader that you are thinking about his or her appreciation of your writing. C. Don’ t plain. D. For example, it is not necessary to share your participation level in your essay. E. But I’ m guessing that there are a lot more essays that produce laughter and gasps of“ not again”. F. Don’ t try to cover everything in an essay. G. Tell the reader what you’ ve done, how you’ ve been influenced, and by whom. 第三部分 英语知识运用 (共两节,满分 45分 ) 第一节完形填空 (共 20小题;每小题 ,满分 30分 ) 阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项 (A、 B、 C和 D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Last December, just a week before Christmas, I went to a local KMart store to pick up my layaway(预付定金购物 ).
