最近,继芝加哥大学和康奈尔大学、弗吉尼亚大学、达特茅斯学院后,耶鲁大学也在官网上公布了2023年秋季入学申请补充文书题目。
相比2021-2022的附加文书,今年附加文书题目发生了一些改变:1、简答题最后一题换了新的题目。2、必答文书第一道题目发生了改变,第二道题目融合了去年的题目。
快来跟着小编一起看看今年耶鲁大学的附加文书题目吧!
耶鲁大学的补充文书题目分为简答题和必答文书两部分。Short Answer Questions是耶鲁大学文书的重要组成部分,因为简短,所以各位同学必须直奔主题,言简意赅,突出最生动的故事。
必答文书题目会根据申请人选择的申请平台而略有不同。
简答题
提交Coalition Application,Common Application或QuestBridge Application 的申请人需要回答以下简答题。
QuestBridge申请人将通过耶鲁大学QuestBridge问卷完成以下简答题,在收到申请后,耶鲁大学录取状况门户网站上可以找到这些问题。
题目1:Students at Yale have time to explore their academic interests before committing to one or more major fields of study. Many students either modify their original academic direction or change their minds entirely. As of this moment, what academic areas seem to fit your interests or goals most comfortably? Please indicate up to three from the list provided.
译文:耶鲁大学的学生在致力于一个或多个主要学术领域之前,有足够的时间探索他们的学术兴趣。许多学生要么修改他们原来的学术方向,要么完全改变。到目前为止,哪些学术领域最适合您的兴趣或目标?请从提供的列表中指出,最多三个。
题目2:Tell us about a topic or idea that excites you and is related to one or more academic areas you selected above. Why are you drawn to it? (200 words or fewer)
译文:告诉我们一个与你上面选择的一个或多个学术领域相关的让你兴奋的话题或想法。告诉我们你为什么被它吸引?(200字以内)
题目3:What is it about Yale that has led you to apply? (125 words or fewer)
译文:你申请耶鲁的原因是什么?(125字以内)
以上这三个问题可以简单概括为“Why You”“Why Major”“Why School”。
回答这些问题的时候一个基本的原则是:保持真诚。如果你已经知道自己的方向,就认认真真的说出来TA吸引你的原因,并与大学特色结合起来,写出学校是如何满足你的学术好奇心,为什么你会选择耶鲁而不是其他学校。
当然,因为有字数的限制,往往无需特别详细的展开到细枝末节都不放过,简练地、全面地概括表达清楚,也是很考验学生英语能力的。
选择Coalition Application或Common Application申请系统的学生还需要回答下面这些简答题(200字符,约35个单词以内)。
题目1:What inspires you?
译文:是什么在启发你?(人、事情…)
题目2:Yale’s residential colleges regularly host conversations with guests representing a wide range of experiences and accomplishments. What person, past or present, would you invite to speak? What would you ask them to discuss?
译文:耶鲁大学住宿学院定期邀请拥有丰富经历和成就的嘉宾进行讲座。你会邀请什么人发言?这个人可以是已经逝去的也可是健在的,你会问他/她什么问题?
题目3:You are teaching a new Yale course. What is it called?
译文:如果你在耶鲁要教一门新的课程,会叫作什么?
题目4:What is something about you that is not included anywhere else in your application?
译文:在你的申请中,有哪些方面是其他地方没有提及的?
文书提交Coalition Application或Common Application的申请人需要回答以下问题之一,字数不超过400字。
题目1. Yale carries out its mission “through the free exchange of ideas in an ethical, interdependent, and diverse community.” Reflect on a time when you exchanged ideas about an important issue with someone holding an opposing view. How did the experience lead you either to change your opinion or to sharpen your reasons for holding onto it?
译文:耶鲁通过“在一个有道德、相互依赖和多样化的社区中自由交流思想”来实现其使命。回想一下,当你和持相反观点的人就一个重要问题交换意见的时候,这段经历是如何让你改变了自己的观点,或者让你坚持它的理由更明确?
题目2:Reflect on a time when you have worked to enhance a community to which you feel connected. Why have these efforts been meaningful to you? You may define community however you like.
译文:回想一下,当你为一个联系紧密的社区而努力的时候,为什么这些努力对你有意义?您可以根据自己的喜好定义这个社区。
