The purpose of historical inquiry is not simply to present facts but tosearch for an interpretation of the past. The reason I want to study History issimply that it combines the excitement of exploration and discovery with thesense of reward born from successfully confronting and making sense of complexand challenging problems.History is fascinating because society is constantlyevolving and as a result, the history must evolve with it.I seek enrolment ina program that not only maintains a superb reputation but that will also demandonly the highest quality effort from each of its students. I hope that you areable to give me the privilege of continuing my studies on the level demanded byyour prestigious institution. I have applied all my abilities and diligence togetting into Oxford.My aim has always been to excel in examinations, no matterhow demanding they were. I made sure I achieved straight. As in all aspects ofmy studies.From my strong performance in my A level history exam to my past workexperience, my background and qualifications have given me the skills to succeedin your program.Although school occupies most of my time, I have learnt therewards of contributing towards school life and have been head student for twoyears. I take pleasure in debating issues that are important to me, and as partof my contribution I set up a school debating society. This position hasimproved my leadership, organisational and communication skills and, given methe chance to combine my theoretical knowledge and my interpersonal skills tosuccessfully debate issues closely related to history.Outside of academics, Iam a keen sportsman, competitively playing hockey and football. Last year Iparticipated in the AA regional school athletics finals, achieving firstposition. My other passion is swimming, I have been a member of Warwickshireswimming club for nine years. One of my biggest achievements has been taking theCounty Champion title and crowned the record holder in the mens 200mbutterfly.My swimming practices have also given me the chance to complete mylife guard qualification, enabling me to gain work as a lifeguard. My swimmingability also helps with my interest in scuba diving. Last summer I volunteeredto assist with teaching scuba diving at a school in Italy. This experience wasextremely valuable, improving my communication skills and the appreciation ofdifferent cultures and backgrounds.For years, I have maintained a firmdevotion to history. All of my experiences, coupled with a strong academicbackground, will allow me to embrace studying history at OxfordUniversity.When I looked up leadership in the dictionary, it said that it wasthe capacity to lead and the act or instance of leading. These are two verybroad defnitions of leadership. Many people have different notions of what thisword actually means. When I was challenged to use different items to describewhat leadership actually is, I thought this was going to be a hard and obnoxioustask. What could I learn from comparing leadership to a stuffed animal or arubber chicken? But when I sat down to come up with a couple of answers, Irealized that leadership could be compared to almost anything a personwants.
All I know about leadership I learned from a calculator. A calculator canadd everything together to come up with the best answer. It can delet e what isunnecessary and only include what is important. It can solve any type ofproblem. These are all important equalities a leader has to have. A leader hasto be able to add all of the ideas together to make the best possible plan.Leaders have to know how to decipher the good and the bad out of an idea. Theyhave to be versatile and know how to deal with different types of issues.
All I know about leadership I learned from a ball. A ball is able to bounceback up after it is dropped. It is round and has no creases. A ball can bethrown back and forth to different people. All of these qualities are alsoleadership qualities. A leader has to be ready for every situation that isthrown at him or her. He or she has to be able to bounce back from any setbacksand never dwell on the past. Leaders have to exhibit many qualities and never beclosed-minded about a situation. A leader must be able to delegate when he orshe cannot get the work done. They have to trust everyone they lead to be ableto "catch the ball" and keep a project rolling.
This activity made me realize that being a leader is so much more than justhaving authority and having the ability to take control of a situation. A leaderhas to be trusting of all the people he or she leads and, leaders must be ableto combine ideas into one encompassing idea. They cannot sit in the backgroundand watch events happen; they have to jump in and be involved. They should notdelegate all their responsibilities away.
Leadership is more than what the dictionary says it is.
I learned through all of this that I have many of these qualities.
I have the ability to solve problems, lead through adversity, and beversatile. From answering this question, I realized that I could leadeffectively, even if my leadership style is different from other individuals.When I joined student council in my frst year of high school, I did not havethese qualities because I was never put into a situation where I had to lead. Iwas too reserved to try. When I tried, I learned that I could succeed in this. Idid not realize until I answered this question about leadership. I was neverable to see that being a leader is not just about taking control of a group andtelling everyone what to When I was a freshman, I thoughtleadership was this. I did not know that did not have to be forceful and strict.I stereotyped a leader then. Thisis where I went wrong. A leader is about beingyourself and never letting anyone change you. I thought I had to change to be agood leaderOnly when I expanded my comfort zone did I realize this was nottrueIt only took three years and a silly question/game to fgure this out.
尊敬的_老师：
您好!
我叫___，今年17岁，是__市__中学高三_班的一名学生。一直以来，我成绩优异，团结同学。从高一起多次获得“三好学生”“学习标兵”等称号，这些荣誉是老师、学校对我自身努力的一种肯定。在这些荣誉的鼓励下，我更加严格要求自己，谋求全面发展，提高学习及综合能力，取得了更大的进步。
说到学习，我认为自己是一个很有自制力的人，我能够将精力倾注于学习，一心一意，不被周围环境所打扰。正是由于这一点，我总能保持高效率的学习。我并不是一味的与其他同学拼时间，而是注重时间的充分利用，让有限的时间得以延伸，实现的利用效率。学习的高效性帮助我合理的安排作息时间。在取得成绩的稳固与提高的同时，维持良好的生物钟。
当然，我所关注的不仅仅是学习，还有自身综合能力的培养。从高一起，我就一直担任班里的宣传委员，每当各种节日来临之际，我都会亲自进行版面设计，然后再和绘画写字好的同学一起办板报。在所有人的共同努力下，我们班的板报每次在年级的综合评比中总能得到好评。除此之外，我还是学校魔术社的一名社员。我积极参加社团活动，表现优秀，并
多次在学校开展的“社团展示周”活动中代表社团在其他年级和班级表演。这些经历不仅丰富了我的高中生活，同时也进一步提高了我的综合能力。
在高一了解各个高校之初，_大学“自强弘毅求是拓新”的校训便深深吸引了我。“自强”是中华民族的传统美德，成就事业当以此为训，“弘毅”和“求是”又是学习中所必须具有的坚毅刚强的品格和科学严谨的治学态度，而“拓新”则是当今时代发展所必需的动力来源。也许正是因为这样的校训，_大学作为一个历史悠久的高等学府，并没有止步于历史的光环之下，而是紧跟时代的步伐，不断拓新，发展成为长江沿岸上一颗璀璨的明珠。
在众多的学习精英中，我时常会感到压力。但我始终坚信，唯有踏踏实实、勤奋拼搏才能通向成功之路。当我决定做一件事时，就会用最认真的态度竭尽全力去办好它，即使遭遇挫折与困难也决不放弃，直到目标达成。
这就是我，一个热爱_的女孩的自述。虽然前面的道路可能有很多坎坷，但我始终在向前走着，因为我知道，那里有我的梦想，我的希望……
三年前，我怀着对_的憧憬开始了高中三年的学习。我相信，我将凭借着自己的努力带着骄傲和自信踏入_大学的校门!

敬礼!
__大学的各位领导、导师们：
您们好!
首先感谢你们能在百忙之中审阅我的个人留学申请书。
我叫___，是来自__某中学的一名高三的理科生，即将面临高考，我期望透过贵校来实现我在__大学学习的梦想。一向以来，__大学对我都有很大的吸引力，有着悠久的历史，深厚的文化底蕴，丰富的教学资源，良好的学术氛围，强烈的时代气息，__大学历经沧桑，饱经风雨，为祖国培养了许多优秀人才，取得了丰硕的科研成果，并成为我国培养高层次专门人才和发展科学技术的一个重要基地。个性是，她是我国高校中最早开始试点实行自主招生的高校之一，她爱惜人才、有职责感，不拘一格选人才。这一点很吸引我。我十分渴望能在20__年7月拿到贵校的录取通知书，成为贵校的一名学生，成为一名对社会、对祖国有用的人才。
进入高中以来，我不断为实现这一理想而努力学习文化知识，勤学善思。英语、理化是我的强势科目，英语成绩个性优异。我参加了今年的全国中学生英语创新大赛，并有幸进入复赛，虽然由于种.种原因和最后的大奖擦肩而过，但参加竞赛的这种过程使我的潜力得到了很大的提升。
除了学习成绩优秀以外，我还有多方面的特长，我参加了校园的乐队，业余时间我喜欢拉二胡，学习二胡，不仅仅丰富了我的课余生活，而且升华了我对音乐的见解，在二胡的世界中，有奔腾豪放的《赛马》，有坚定有力，追溯光明的《光明行》，也有悲愤哀怨的《江河水》，我用心参与文体活动。初中时博兴县的才艺表演大赛中获得优秀节目奖。
我不仅仅爱好计算机，在业余时间，我参加了教育部组织的计算机等级考试并取得了一级B证，而且经常用心参与体育锻炼，强健体魄，增强毅力。除此之外，我热情、开朗，乐于助人，阳光、向上，所以高中以来，我年年被评为为"三好学生"。
但是，这些成绩只能代表我的过去，梦在心中，路在脚下，站在人生的十字路口，我选取了__大学，我期望__大学能敞开怀抱，给我带给一个大发展的平台，期望各位领导和老师能理解我的申请，衷心的感谢!

尊敬的_招生组的老师：
您好!
我是来自河南省__中学的__，很高兴能向您呈上我的留学申请书，也希望借此机会我可以脱颖而出，为顺利进入_大学奠定坚实的基础。
在首都这座梦想之城，可谓高校林立，但是只有贵校深深地吸引了我的目光。每年，我们高中都会有人考入贵校，他们被誉为“天子骄子”。当录取金榜贴到校园里，看着他们脸上洋溢的笑容，我的心里也如波涛汹涌，再也那耐不住了。我暗暗下定决心，有朝一日我也要以自己的实力筑梦于人大校园，成为她的一分子。
可说归说，要想成功，唯有刻苦努力，勤奋学习。
在学习上，我对自己要求十分严格，充分发扬不怕吃苦的精神去面对学习中的一切困难和挫折。我知道学习就是一个苦难的过程，唯有坚持不懈，才能实现凤凰涅盘的重生，才能抵达成功的彼岸。因此，在课堂上，我紧紧跟随老师的思路，认真听讲，细心做好笔记，每一个知识点都不会错过。课下，我珍惜时间，努力复习，积极预习，有的放矢地掌控好自己的学习节奏。我喜欢思考问题，喜欢探究问题的本源，然后举一反三，化整为零。由于我的勤奋、刻苦，我获得了优异的成绩，每次考试都在全校前列，受到了老师和同学们的肯定，多次被评为优秀班干部、优秀学生、学习标兵等。
在获得优异成绩的同时，我还抽时间，挤时间发展自己多方面的兴趣。我喜欢打乒乓球、羽毛球、篮球，沉浸于体育锻炼的激情与豪迈中，在紧张与刺激间收获了强健的体魄。但比起体育锻炼，我更钟情于国学文化。
我喜欢国学的博大精深，喜欢国学的厚重神奇。课余，我已经阅读了多部国学经典，比如《孟子》《论语》《史记》《资治通鉴》《汉书》等，在文字与故事里感受到了国学的无限魅力。在我看来，国学不仅仅是传统文化，更是中华民族核心的价值理念和追求，是数千年来中国人思维方式行为方式生活方式生产方式的高度总结，是中华母亲的乳汁，是中华儿女的血脉、精神和灵魂，是中国人信仰的天空和大地。
出于对国学的热爱，我从小就立志要投身于祖国宝贵文化的学习、挖掘、弘扬中，用自己的所学，为国家的文化发展和民族的文化复兴，贡献自己的微薄之力。
而我之所以在众多的_高校中钟情于贵校，就是因为贵校深厚的文化底蕴吸引了我。贵校是一所以人文社会科学为主的综合性研究型高校。自建校以来，贵校始终不忘“立学为民、治学报国”的办学宗旨，以“实事求是”为校训，逐渐形成了完备的教育体系，尤其注重发挥人文社会科学认识世界、传承文明、创新理论、咨政育人、服务社会的作用，半个多世纪以来，已为国家输送了一大批高素质的人才，其中范文澜、冯其庸、艾青、王小波等校友可谓赫赫有名，为国家的文化建设做出了巨大的贡献。
我敬仰贵校国学院，它是新中国第一家以国学为教育研究目的且本硕连读的教育科研机构。学院学术力量雄厚，已经制定了完整系统的国学教学方案，建立了以经典研读为中心的课程体系，并充分兼顾传统与现代的有机融合，在教学与研究中，既有继承传统的治学特点，又有鲜明的时代性和宽广的国际视野。这些，都令我向往。所以，我认为贵校国学院是我的梦想之地，会改变我的人生轨迹。
尊敬的老师，请您考虑并接受我的申请，给我一片天空，让我自由飞翔，给我一片海洋，让我尽情畅游，我相信，进入人大是我最明智的选择。如果顺利被录取，我一定会珍惜时间，勤奋努力，孜孜以求，投身于学术研究，跟随大师足迹，在国学的传承里留下自己的名字，成为国家的栋梁，成为人大的骄傲。
我相信，我可以。

Due to the comprehensiveness of china’s “reform and open” policies， economics plays an increasingly important role in the development of its global position. though more and more companies built， management of companies cannot catch up with the development of the companies. management is a burgeoning field in china， so i hope i can acquire more modern knowledge on management in england.
The roots of my strong interest in business can be traced back to my childhood. my father was among the first of china’s new breed of modern entrepreneurs. as a young girl， it was inspirational hearing about his business ventures， and meeting the varied and interesting circle of entrepreneurs. my mother was also involved in business as an accountant， helping him with simple calculations. and so it was early in my life that i hoped i， also， would someday be able to enter the realm of business.
With the time of growing up， i preferred reading books to satisfy my curiosity. i never ceased to contemplate over the questions i encountered. subjects on business and management became a special fascination to me and my knowledge of psychology as well as interest in this field was increasing rapidly.
As a high school student in china， i had to concentrate on the college entrance examination (cee)， even so， books not related to the exams were never excluded from my life. unfortunately when sitting in the exam in june， __， i was so nervous that i didn’t score well in the cee exam. i enrolled in the department of computer science in zhejiang college of traditional chinese medicine. any attempt to persuade myself to focus on my major turned out to be a failure at the beginning of my college life. after several terms， i realized that i would never be interested in being a programmer or an engineer. at that moment， i lost my direction and objectives.
My persistence in reading saved me from the dark situation. as a matter of fact， i enjoyed reading the books included encyclopedia american， and some books about management by peter ker. i began to notice something interesting： why some companies can produce more than others? why some company can sell more than others? why some companies can build up but others cannot when facing the same difficulties?
With the questions in my mind， i started to read many relevant books. i was lucky to read the book “jack： straight from the gut”by jack welch， in which john a. byrne makes a clear illustration that the management is important for a company. when i was a junior， i ran a bookshop by myself near my school. i should manage not only the finance in the shop but also the employees in my shop even made some strategies to enlarge the business in my shop to hold on the run the shop. from this， my interpersonal skills and the capacity in business has been greatly developed， definitely i was increasingly interested in what i was doing. by december， __， i had finally determined to take business management as my career instead of it. to accumulate more relevant knowledge， i strived to gain more practical work experience in some big companies.

尊敬的_大学老师：
您好!首先感谢您在百忙之中耐心阅读我的留学申请书。我是一名来自江滨小城安庆的学生，就读于安庆市第一中学。我的名字叫___。不知是否是名字的缘故，我从小就与水结下了不解之缘。从扬子江畔到大海之滨，我带着梦想一步步奔流前进。
一、一位女生
我是一个善于思考、爱好广泛、积极进取的女孩，不论是长长的成绩单的前列，还是各类社会活动中，总能发现我的身影。我学习成绩优异，语文、历史等学科尤为突出，在各种联考、学期测试中多次获得分。同时，从小担任学习委员、语文课代表的经历帮我练就了良好的口才，扎实的语言功底和自信大方的风度。
升入高中以后，我的综合素质尤其是文学才能得到了更好的体现。我担任着安庆一中向未来文学社社长，在这片热土上播洒着青春的梦想。这期间，我组织并参与多期校刊的编辑和创作，举办文学讲座，组织采风活动，《中国校园文学》、《辽宁青年》、《中学生优秀作文》……各种报刊上都留下了我年轻而有朝气的文字。在校园广播站中，我依靠较强的编采读写能力和亲切的嗓音成为人气颇高的主播，带大家欣赏窗外的风景。
此外，我还通过选拔，成为学校合唱队的一员，加入了GLOBE气象观测小组。更为光荣的是，我被选为第一批入党积极分子，在业余党校努力学习……在这一系列的学习和工作中，我提升了自身的素养，也收获了不少荣誉。20_、20_年连续两届获得“中国少年作家杯”全国征文大赛一等奖;20__年获第七届“新作文杯”全国中小学生放胆作文大赛高中组一等奖;20_年校“新新文学”征文比赛一等奖，并被评为校优秀团员、三好学生。
二、一次经历
20_年9月16日是_纪念日。作为文学社社长，我以此为主题带头撰写了一批稿件。9月15日，我突然接到了校领导的电话，表示欣赏我的文章，并邀请我作为一名学生代表在纪念大会上发言，但必须新拟讲稿。进入高三以后学业繁重，当时我也身患感冒，噪音大打折扣，是不是婉拒这次邀请呢?经过了片刻的犹豫之后，我决定给自己一个挑战的机会。凭着担任校史讲解员所积累的知识，通过查阅相关史料，我很快写出了讲稿《永为国之栋》。
16日早晨，在全校师生、各届校友和众多市民的注视下，我从容地走上主席台，深吸一口气，朗声说道：“亲爱的老师、同学们，今天，当我们翻开安庆一中厚重的史稿，我们不会忘记这样一个日子……”当我结束发言、鞠躬致谢时，台下爆发出的热烈掌声告诉我;我做到了!校长赞许地拍了拍我的头，同学们纷纷向我表示祝贺——大家都没有发现我的噪音的小秘密。当日，我的讲稿被选登在《安庆日报》专版上，很多素不相识的师生见到我都说：“你是在大会上发言的※※吧!讲得真好!”
虽然这次经历只是我多彩的高中生活中的一个小小的片段，虽然这不是我最光鲜耀眼的荣誉，但它却最让我引以为傲;因为我明白了：相信自己，我可以做得更好!
三、一个梦想
想成为一名优秀新闻工作者的我，如今站在高三这个人生的十字路口，但步伐却一如从前，自信坚定。_大学就是我始终坚持的方向。她以她“自强不息、止于至善”的精神，深厚的文化底蕴及一流的教学水平深深地吸引着年轻的我。
20_年夏天，我同父母特地来到祖国的东南明珠_，提前感受了_那温暖亲切的怀抱。漫步于优雅大方的校园，看着来来往往的哥哥姐姐阳光的脸庞，品尝着_食堂可口的沙茶面，我真切地感受到：就是_!这就是我追逐梦想的舞台!
尊敬的老师，您能给我一个再次在这个美丽校园听涛声、品美食的机会吗?
Dear Sir,
I am writing in the hope that I may obtain an opportunity to further my study in Applied Physics toward Master degree in your university.
My name is Li Jin, an undergraduate student of the Department of Applied Physics, Huabei University. Next year in the summer, I will graduate and get my B.S. degree. I plan to continue my study and research in this field. I chose Boston University because there are a congenial team of researchers, an array of databases and research projects in your school of Physics. I believe my interests are extremely congruent with the strengths of the school. And my solid academic background will meet your general entrance requirements for graduate study.
I will appreciate it very much if you could send me the Graduate Application Forms, the Application Form for Scholarships/Assistantships, and other relevant information. My mailing address is shown on the top of this letter.
I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.

i am a student, graduated from the yunnan national university sportseducation professional, i like directional movement, directional movementdirectional movement directional movement originated in sweden ,so i have adream to study in sweden. then i search online and find that it is moreconvenient and suitable for me to go to university of gothenburg for study.
first, sweden is a multicultural country, which has the most advancededucation in the world. second, the tuition is lower than other countries, whichi think is more reasonable for me. finally, sweden, picturesque, environment isgraceful, suitable for living, the climate of sweden is similar with the climateof the south of china. considering above reasons, i told my parents my plan ongoing to sweden for study, and my parent agreed with me.
as a girl, i like directional movement since i was young. nowadays, chineseparents, who want their children to get better education, pay more attention toeducation. if i study specialized curriculums on directional movement, i will goback china and work hard on directional movement after leaving college. my planis as follows: first, i plan to study english in language institute for about ahalf year in sweden. then, i will study specialized curriculums on directionalmovement.
i believe i have the ability of study abroad, because i have finished allhigh school curriculums. besides, my parents both have job and have rich income,so they will support me to finish my study. after finishing my study, i willreturn to my homeland and work on preschool education, so as to realize my lifevalue.
i am a student, graduated from baoyang middle school, nanning, guangxiautonomous region, in 20__. i am still studying in high school now, because iwas not enrolled by the ideal university last year. recently, i have a dream tostudy abroad. then i search online and find that it is more convenient andsuitable for me to go to new zealand for study.
first, new zealand is a multicultural country, which has the most advancededucation in the world. second, the tuition is lower than other countries’,which i think is mo
re reasonable for me. finally, the climate of new zealand is similar withthe climate of the south of china. considering above reasons, i told my parentsmy plan on going to new zealand for study, and my parent agreed with me.
as a girl, i like preschool education since i was young. nowadays, chineseparents, who want their children to get better education, pay more attention topreschool education. if i study specialized curriculums on preschool education,i will go back china and work hard on preschool education after leavingcollege.
my plan is as follows: first, i plan to study english in language institutefor about a half year in new zealand. then, i will study specialized curriculumson preschool education. i believe i have the ability of study abroad, because ihave finished all high school curriculums. besides, my parents both have job andhave rich income, so they will support me to finish my study. after finishing mystudy, i will return to my homeland and work on preschool education, so as torealize my life value.
As a child I often accompanied my father to his small coin shop and spenthours watching him work. When I was older, I sometimes set up displays, waitedon customers, and even balanced the books. This experience instilled in me thedesire to own and manage my own business someday, yet I understand that thebusiness world today is more complex. This complexity requires more education,and with that in mind, I am applying to the Master’s of Business Administrationprogram at Indiana University Bloomington (IUB).
In addition to my helping out in my father’s business, I have had numerousother work experiences that further enhance my qualifications for this program.My resume enumerates the various positions I have held at Kerasotes Theaters,Chili’s restaurants, and Indiana University’s new Student Recreational SportsCenter (SRSC), and what all of these positions have in common is an emphasis onserving the public effectively. Further, as an assistant manager at theShowplace 11 and a staff coordinator at the SRSC, I have gained valuableexpertise in managing employees and creating work schedules. Both of thesepositions have allowed me to develop my sales and people skills, which areextremely important in an increasingly service-driven marketplace.
Not all of my work experience has been as a paid employee. Part of myvolunteering experience at Middleway House, the local battered women’s shelter,involved extensive work on computers, including word processing, organizingdatabases and creating spreadsheets. Also, I recently participated in aninternship program for academic credit with the Eli Lilly corporation in thepersonnel division. As a management intern, I was able to watch the workings ofa major corporation up close and would like the opportunity to combine myexperiences with the theoretical background available in the MBA program at IUB,with its emphasis on computers, marketing and human resources.
My successful internship is one element of my overall academic success asan undergraduate here at IUB, yet I have also made time for a variety ofextracurricular activities, including working for my sorority and competing inintramural basketball. My positive experiences here have resulted in my desireto stay in Bloomington to continue my academic endeavors; furthermore,continuing my education here would allow me to make important business contacts,with the career goal of opening my own computer consulting firm in theMidwest.
尊敬的_领导：
您好!我叫__，是一名来自山西的高三学生。很感激您能在百忙之中来阅读我的自荐信。
小的时候就听大人们谈起过“_”这个被当时的我赋予了很丰富的联想的名字。年龄还小的我只是觉得这个名字给人一种很威风、大气的感觉，渴望着有朝一日也能成为它的一分子。随着年龄的增长，我对_有了更多的认识：不同于其他的学校，_始终保持一种严谨治学的态度;无论何时，_都能为学子提供最清静、最不受丝毫干扰的学习环境。_坐落于素有“人间天堂”美誉的杭州，与北京上海等地的高校相比，有着不相伯仲乃至更高一筹的教学水平，却比他们少一份喧嚣，多一份宁静。
看到“_”的_校训时，心底的触动让我更加坚定了“我要成为_人”的决心。_坚持着思想教育和专业知识培养兼顾、理论与实践相结合的理念，注重培养学生的求知创新精神。所以，成为一个_人，这将会成为我永远无悔并且引以自豪的决定。
当然，选择_并不仅仅是由于_无可比拟的优越性，还有一个原因便是自身的性格因素。我是一个活泼开朗、阳光率直的女孩，对于新鲜的事物总是充满了好奇，喜欢在各种各样的挑战中不断超越自己。我爱音乐从黑白琴键下淙淙流出的写意，也爱篮球场上行云流水的酣畅淋漓。所以在高中时，我担任班中的文艺委员、学校的音乐社社长以及女子篮球队队长。虽然我是女生，但我对电脑也有着非同寻常的喜爱，在初中毕业后的暑假，我特意去了电脑学校学习了VisualBasic编程语言。在很小的时候，我就能掌握比同龄人多很多的字词。凭借着语言天赋，我又在假期中学习了大学韩语教材的第一册。对我来说学习永远是件快乐的事，因为我总能在其中体味到那种不断充实自己、超越自己的满足感。
我是一个很爱玩也很会玩的女孩。但无论在玩的时候多么无拘无束，一到了学习时，会马上静下心来，心无旁骛地投入到学习中，从小学到高中，一直成绩优异，从不偏科。而在所有的学科中，我最倾心的是数学。我喜欢在数字、符号、字幕之间寻找那些微小的规律;喜欢在各种各样的图形中搜寻出各个部分的关系;我喜欢遇到难题时的棋逢对手之感;喜欢攻克难题后“百万军中取上将首级”的豪迈之感。虽然从未学习过奥数，但我仍在初中时获得了“希望杯”数学邀请赛的三等奖，以及高中时全国数学联赛的二等奖。
我喜欢钻研问题时那种专注、纯净的感觉。我相信，只有_才是能让求知之鹰自由翱翔的朗朗晴空。
同时，我也对自己的能力充满信心。我曾多次在班级、学校的活动中担任主持人;还曾在假期中做过家教，定期地组织社团活动等。踏踏实实地在一次又一次的实践活动中不断提升自己的能力。
当然，想要成为一名_人，思想品德是更重要的一方面。妈妈从小就教导我：无论怎样，首先要学会做一个纯粹的人。学习生活中，我会尽自己的力量热情地帮助周围的同学，认真负责地为集体做好本职工作，积极地在歌咏比赛、运动会上为班争光;在家时，我会在学习之余帮助妈妈洗衣做饭，做各种各样的家务;假期里，我还会组织同学一起去福利院开展志愿活动……“求实创新”是我的座右铭。并将伴随我一生。
所以我热切地盼望这有朝一日胸前能佩戴起那枚意蕴深厚的_校徽，抱着书本漫步在_优美的校园内，庄严地对自己说“我是_人”!
希望您能通过我的申请。如果我的申请未被通过，我会认真地找出自己的不足并虚心改正，努力在明年的高考中考出理想的成绩，步入_的校园。
i am a student, graduated from baoyang middle school, nanning, guangxi autonomous region, in 20__. i am still studying in high school now, because i was not enrolled by the ideal university last year. recently, i have a dream to study abroad. then i search online and find that it is more convenient and suitable for me to go to new zealand for study.
first, new zealand is a multicultural country, which has the most advanced education in the world. second, the tuition is lower than other countries’, which i think is mo
re reasonable for me. finally, the climate of new zealand is similar with the climate of the south of china. considering above reasons, i told my parents my plan on going to new zealand for study, and my parent agreed with me.
as a girl, i like preschool education since i was young. nowadays, chinese parents, who want their children to get better education, pay more attention to preschool education. if i study specialized curriculums on preschool education, i will go back china and work hard on preschool education after leaving college.
my plan is as follows: first, i plan to study english in language institute for about a half year in new zealand. then, i will study specialized curriculums on preschool education.
i believe i have the ability of study abroad, because i have finished all high school curriculums. besides, my parents both have job and have rich income, so they will support me to finish my study. after finishing my study, i will return to my homeland and work on preschool education, so as to realize my life value.

尊敬的考官：
您好!
很荣幸有机会向您呈上我的留学申请书。
我出生于一个教师之家，母亲是一位优秀的小学教师;父亲是也曾经是教师，后来经历了人生的第二次选择，考入法院，成了一名法官。父母对生活的热情和对人生挫折的态度，潜移默化地影响着我，形成了我自强不息、不轻言败的性格。
中考的教训，让我懂得了什么叫脚踏实地，什么叫不图虚荣，什么叫谦虚谨慎，什么叫取长补短……高中三年，我努力夯实学科基础知识、掌握学习方法、提高操作实践能力、同时，利用课余时间广泛地涉猎大量书籍，不但充实了自己，而且培养了自己多方面的技能。夷陵中学严谨的学风塑造了我朴实、稳重的学习态度，更重要的是在这样一个精英云集的地方，我学会了在竞争中挑战自我，在合作中欣赏他人。这样一步一个脚印走来，我尝到了成功的喜悦：成绩逐年上升，我看到了自己身上蕴藏着的无限潜能，它让我相信——如果给我一个支点，我也能撬起整个地球!
选择_大学我有以下几个理由：
一是_大学是一所国家教育部直属的，拥有研究生院，本科专业涵盖了理、工、文、经、管、法、教育等学科门类的综合性重点大学，是一所有着坚实的学术基础和严谨的治学传统，校园环境优美的大学。在这样的学习环境里，无论是在知识能力，还是在个人素质修养方面，我会受益匪浅。
二是_大学是一所以工为主的大学，这符合了我的学科兴趣，我是一个理科生，尤其以数学、物理学科见长，这次推荐我参加自主招生的就是我的数学老师和物理老师。我喜欢在这样自主开放的环境里学习，希望可以有更为广阔的发展前景。
三是_大学坚持以“厚基础，宽口径，强能力，高素质”的人才培养计划，在教学中注重创新能力培养，注重提高学生的综合素质，学校实施了一系列教学改革新措施包括：名师上讲台工程、中英文双语教学工程、“创新人才培养”工程、本硕连读制度等，还有一系列的完善学分制管理的制度，包括主辅修制、弹性学制、第二学位制、优异生培养制度等。
现在有很多的大学生毕业后面临就业难的问题，这也将是我今后不能回避的，但我想，这是一个适应社会的问题。大学是一个可以接触并尝试众多领域的独一无二的场所，是一个沟通社会的平台。我希望这里掌握生活技能，培养自己的社会角色，使自己能承担社会责任，权利和义务，成为一个真正的社会人。
现在的科技发展可谓日新月异，我的学习是要掌握最基本的学习工具和方法，将来利用这些工具和方法，再去学习新的东西。我们不可能靠在大学里学到的知识来维护一生的，以后如果不再学了，照样会落后，所以，本科读什么专业不能完全决定毕业后的工作方向。我希望根据我的学科特长，选择适合我的专业，但是我不会太在意专业的趋向，绝对服从学校根据我的情况进行专业调剂。
无论您是否选择我，尊敬的领导，希望您能够接受我诚恳的谢意!自主招生只是一次机会，无论这个机会是否垂青于我，我都不会气馁，我会全力以赴，备战高考，去迎接六月的彩虹(我的六月不是黑色)!

敬礼!
