Now an experienced engineer at 26, I would like to scale still higher intellectual heights b

2、y undertaking advanced studies that I hope would put me firmly on the cutting edge of scientific development. I have demonstrated a keen mind since my early childhood. For years, I consistently outperformed all of my classmates in such challenging subjects as mathematics, physics and chemistry. I wa

3、s thus chosen to represent either my school or my city in a variety of provincial and national contests of academic skills, in which I won numerous prizes. This impressive academic record put me on academic acceleration several times. That not only enabled me to finish my primary and secondary educa

4、tion in eight instead of the usual twelve years but also sent me at 14 to a privileged class for the gifted at the Chinese University of Science and Technology, a major cradle of the countrys scientific and technological talents. After two years of basic training in the gifted class, I chose electri

5、cal engineering as my major and computer software programming as my minor, convinced that expertise in these fields would stand me in good stead in an era of Chinas rapid economic expansion and technological modernization. As you can see from the transcripts of my undergraduate grades, I excelled in

6、 both of these areas. Upon graduation in 1991, I won easy acceptance into the Institute of Electronics under the Chinese Academy of Sciences and became a graduate student at 19, when most Chinese students would be just starting their university education. At this institute, I narrowed my academic in

7、terest down and focused it on the area of human and artificial intelligence, where the courses I took were deliberately concentrated. It seemed to me that scientific breakthroughs would next come in this area, which made it both challenging and promising. I learned a whole lot about this area in the

8、 course if doing my thesis titled “The Radio Shunting System in Railroad”, for which some experiments were conducted on the basis of artificial intelligence. My solid education paid off in my ability to take on a variety of responsibilities in Chinas burgeoning software industry. After I obtained my

9、 Masters Degree in Engineering in 1994, I first took up a job with a telecommunication company, where I managed a trunk communication system that resembled the cellular wireless system. A year later, I joined a software company to develop CMIS program for Chinas Post and Telecommunications Ministry.

10、 It was a large project, and I made crucial contribution to it by independently developing and finalizing one subsystem, which proved to be a significant success and won me profuse appreciation from users. After the completion of that project, I have been working for the Japan Brother Ltd. in the ar

11、ea of software development. The relative smooth path of my career notwithstanding, I have not had a chance to lead a major project, although I have always finished my part of every project immaculately. In spite of all my achievements, I feel that I have not taken the full advantages of my intellect

12、ual capabilities. I now wish to pursue still more advanced studies and thereby obtain an advanced degree so that I can open more doors and shoulder greater responsibilities. I believe I have acquired the necessary theoretical framework and sufficient practical experience for further studies. My abil

13、ity to teach myself and conduct independent research allows me to attain competence quickly in areas that I may at first know very little about. I never work just to finish an assignment, but instead I always try conscientiously to improve my knowledge and expertise through the work I do. In this fa

14、shion, I have become seasoned in such fields as trunking system (telecommunications) and CMIS system (software). This quality should help me as I seek to further upgrade my education, particularly if I have ready access to the seasoned guidance of a strong faculty and the convenience of state-of-the

15、-art research facilities. The University of Idaho is well known for its excellence in the E. E field, complete with an accomplished faculty and modern research resources. These should set a good stage for me to exercise my keen mental power and diligence. If I am accepted, I am confident that I can

16、make quick progress in the E. E field, especially in the areas of artificial intelligence, image processing, wireless communication, neural network and computer networking, which have many characteristics in common and share many important principles. Due to the broad applications of these technolog

17、ies, I believe the progress we make in these areas will help shape the future of the mankind. I would like t be at the forefront of such progress. As I am broadly grounded in EE and computer science, you may find me qualified or more qualified for advanced studies in areas other than those I have me

18、ntioned. If so, I would greatly appreciate it if you could let me know any suggestions that you may have. I wish to assure you that I have the necessary English language skills to complete advanced studies in your Ph. D. program. I generally read or write English without any difficulty. I have, over

19、 the years, not only read academic or professional materials in English avidly but also memorized the whole English-Chinese dictionary. There may be room for improvement in my oral English and English listening comprehension. But I am sure my English proficiency is sufficient for me to undertake adv

20、anced studies and research. Besides, I believe I can improve my oral English by leaps and bounds once I start to live in an English-speaking environment. All that I need to do is to set my mind free. I plan to return to China after the completion of my Ph. D. studies either to teach at one of the la

22、我们文化的元素。所以。要是不小心撞碰了比人，即使是在地铁上，绝大部分人会很自然地说“对不起”。 3.饮食习惯大不同 在英国喝茶、喝咖啡很多，但进餐时通常喝冷饮料。与中国文化不同的，英国人并不觉得喝热水或热饮料一定有益健康。所以大学校园里没有灌热水的地方，只能看到出凉水的龙头。 即使英国各地都有中国人开的特别正宗的中餐馆，当你的英国朋友说他们吃过中餐时，他们所说的很可能是“英式中餐外卖”，比如炸虾片和柠檬鸡。大城市里有中国超市，你可以在那里买到需要的各种烹饪原料、调味品和锅碗瓢勺。从火锅到电饭锅，一应俱全。但你要是住在比较靠近乡村的地方，一定别忘了从中国带些自己喜欢的各色食品，但是英国海关对旅客

23、携带某些食品入境有严格规定，注意了解这些规定。 另一件需要注意的是就餐时间和量。在英国，晚餐通常比午餐正式，吃得也多。午餐一般就是个三明治，工作休息也就一个小时到半小时之间，这跟中国大部分习惯的热呼呼的午餐相差很大。 4.交通出行 大城市里一般当街招手叫出租车都不便宜，乘公共交通工具要便宜得多。如果真需要出租车，一般都打电话订“小出租车”(mimi cab)，这种小出租车比较便宜，但是一定要是合法登记的出租车公司。 英国坐火车最简便的方法是网上订票。25岁以下的学生还可以买一张学生优惠火车卡(railcard)。凭这张卡买火车票还有折扣。 5.人际交往要采取主动(making efforts)

24、 这不属于文化差异，但到英国后应该思考一下自己怎么融入英国社会，跟当地人打成一片。这就像个恶性循环。你跟自己的同胞交往时间越多，练习所在国语言的机会就越少，然后就越不好意思开口跟当地人交谈。 建议大家到英国后可以参加大学里的一些学生社团，或者设法跟英国人合租公寓。即使这可能使你感到不大自在，也作出努力。 6.注重私人空间 在北京乘坐地铁，人挤人似乎已经是特别平常的一种心态。在英国，人们更习惯拥有个人的空间，因为英国面积很小，人口也比较少。如果不小心碰到了别人，都会道歉，并跟别人保持一定距离。 7.小费 最后需要提一下的是小费，通常在英国小费10%。在美国，什么都要给小费，囊括出租车司机。在英国

25、，通常只是去餐馆时给小费。有些餐馆把服务费加到餐费里，你可要求餐费单算，小费另外给。但你要是觉得服务质量不好，就不给小费。 8.不要砍价 “砍价”在中国被默认为一种购物文化，但在英国却最禁忌“砍价”。英国人不喜欢讨价还价，认为这是很丢面子的事情。如果你购买的是一件贵重的艺术品或数量很大的商品时，你也需要小心地与卖方商定一个全部的价钱。英国人很少讨价还价，因为他们认为一件商品的价钱合适就会买下，不合适就会离开。 9.注意自身安全! 在英国找房子的时候记得一定要记得远离治安不好的地区，晚上尽量不要出门，租房前可以查英国地区犯罪指数的网站。毕竟国外不比国内，治安环境还是没那么好的。 英国留学住宿安置

26、指南 一、寄宿家庭 起初是针对未成年学生设置的监护形式的住宿方式，到现在已经发展成了一种比较常见的住宿选择，全年龄段的学生都可以提交自己的住宿申请，可以通过学校，也可以通过机构。 家庭会为学生提供住宿的居所，还会有餐饮服务可以选择，或者大家可以申请使用厨房自己做，如果能够友好相处的话，还有机会参与到家庭的聚会和社交中去，对大家的适应是很有利的。 不过也会有一定的烦恼，因为作为外来者，留学生只能够适应家庭的内部规则，这时候一定要积极地进行沟通和交流，确认自己的意见能够直接传达，会更友好的相处。 二、学校宿舍 宿舍会是新生的首选，大家申请也是会优先权的，基本上只要在收到offer确认以后，就可以进

27、行正式的申请，并且成功通过的可能性是特别高的，大家可以顺利入住。 宿舍一般是双人和多人间，有的需要共享卧室，有的会有单独卧室，但是一般都需要共用卫浴，在能够搞好关系的同时也失去了一定的隐私权，不过总体上看好处还是比较多的。 三、校外租房 由于住校和租房相比，在费用上并没有很大的优势，甚至可能会更贵，所以大部分学生渡过了新生期以后，就会选择搬出去住，区别在于单独租房还是和别人一起合租。 找房源一定要要从靠谱的平台获取，学校和朋友介绍就很不错，并且大家还可以去专业的租房中介获取有效的信息，花钱就能够找到比较合适的房子，当然大家也可以考虑合租。 租房的优势，就是会有个人比较隐私的空间，即便是和别人进

28、行合租，也会有自己的卧室，并且厨房是租房的标配，大家可以自己做饭还可以省钱。 英国留学常识问题解读 一、听说英国环境很好? 答：看情况! 很多人会认为外国尤其是欧洲国家和美加澳等地区，这些国家的环境好，但倘若要认真负责的说，这真的需要看具体情况而定，不同国家不同城市情况也会有完全不同的感觉，就拿英国来说，多数的城市是特别干净的，但也有些城市环境不是太好。因此留学前需要自己了解清楚留学地点。 除此之外，还要看定义环境好坏是指哪个方面，譬如空气质量的话，那么英国可以说是没得挑剔，但是在水质方面却不是那么一回事了，举个例子：南安普顿，水质就不怎么乐观了，当然现在情况已经好多了，有些时候烧水以后还会出

29、现一点水垢，因此不少人留学生都会选择带滤水器，不过还是老话，要看具体情况，英国的苏格兰水质普遍好于英格兰，在苏格兰烧一年谁都不会烧出水垢。并且仔细观察就能发现，英国本土卖的矿泉水基本都是苏格兰产的，这个没办法，苏格兰高地环境纯净啊。 二、在英国办什么事情都要预约? 答：是的! 在英国，不得不吐槽的一点便是，无论做什么首先都要提前预约，明明非常简单的事情变得复杂化，就拿银行和医疗两件最为具有代表的例子举例吧，在英国的银行办理开卡是特别麻烦的事情，麻烦在于你得等。开卡的时候要预约，一般要提前一个星期，但是办理的时候是有工作人员一对一服务的，而开卡之后，银行卡是邮寄到家的，以汇丰银行为例，通常要是5-7个工作日，工作日啊，这意味着这周办的卡，基本是下周才能拿到，甚至有可能是下下周，也可能更久。 接着到医疗方面，英国的医疗其基础设施是很发达，被称为GP，但是倘若要看病那么麻烦首先预约，一般要提前一周，但是近年来好了许多，在英国看病通常两种情况，情况特别紧急有生命危险，直接打999类似于美国电话911，然后剩下的基本都是需要预约了，不过最近多了一种111，是专门应对为流感，发烧发热设置的。因此看病极为不便。 三.英国的残疾人不少? 的确如此，当然这其中究其原因还是因为英国社会对残疾人的接纳程度很高，很多设施都是为残疾人设置，残
