美國藤校2023屆申請文書題目發布

耶魯大學每年的申請文書(shu) 中，分為(wei) 簡答題和短文書(shu) 兩(liang) 種形式。在今年的更新的文書(shu) 題目中，簡答題的最後一題換了新題目；二選一的短文書(shu) 則第一題改變，第二題融合了去年的內(nei) 容。

整體(ti) 來說也是不小的變化，下麵我們(men) 就具體(ti) 來看看耶魯的這些文書(shu) 題目吧——

#Part.1 /  簡答題

無論學生選擇Coalition Application，Common Application或QuestBridge Application這三者中的哪一個(ge) 申請平台，都需要完成以下的簡答題：

Q1: 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.

耶魯大學的學生在決(jue) 定選擇一個(ge) 或多個(ge) 學術領域前，都會(hui) 用充足的時間來探索個(ge) 人學術興(xing) 趣。探索之後，有的學生會(hui) 進行調整甚至完全改變自己原來的學術方向。到目前為(wei) 止，哪些學術領域是符合你的興(xing) 趣或個(ge) 人目標的呢？（請從(cong) 提供的列表中最多指出三個(ge) 。）

Q2: 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)

Q3: What is it about Yale that has led you to apply? (125 words or fewer)

除了上述三個(ge) 簡答題外，選擇Coalition Application或Common Application申請係統的學生還需要回答下麵這些簡答題（200字符，約35個(ge) 單詞以內(nei) ）。

Q1：What inspires you?

什麽(me) 會(hui) 給你啟發？

#Part.2 /   短文書(shu)

選擇Coalition Application或Common Application申請係統的學生需要在下麵的文書(shu) 題目中二選一寫(xie) 一篇400字的文章。

Q1: 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?

耶魯大學的使命是打造一個(ge) “有道德的、相互支撐的、鼓勵多元化、自由交流思想的的群體(ti) ”。回想一下，當你和持相反觀點的人就一個(ge) 重要問題交換意見的時候，這段經曆是如何讓你改變自己的觀點，或者是讓你更明確的堅持它的呢？

Q2: 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.

回想一下你曾經為(wei) 社區做過的貢獻。為(wei) 什麽(me) 這些貢獻對你來說是有意義(yi) 的？你可以根據自己的喜好來定義(yi) “社區”。
