申请美国TOP50名校本科，这些最低申请要求你一定要满足 2017年的美国本科申请马上就要开始了，相信很多同学现在忙得焦头烂额的在准备申请材料中!那么，申请美国TOP50名校，你需要什么准备哪些申请材料呢?你要满足哪些最低要求呢?今天，天道小编就给大家整理了美国前50的名校的申请材料和要求。 申请材料 1.课外活动表格 如何参与这个活动、花多长时间参与以及你担任的角色，根据每个申请学校的要求作答。 2.高中成绩 初三、高一、高二的成绩单;除了提早申请，申请者当年秋季的成绩单也要提交。 3.SAT成绩、托福成绩 根据每个学校要求提供。 4.个人陈述 个人陈述要用细节打动招生官，要连贯性强的全面展示真实的申请人。 5.推荐信 推荐信要确保时间与大学申请截止时间的间隔。推荐信切记少而精，美国名校只看重每封推荐信的质量，一封普通的、平淡的推荐信反而会有负面作用。 推荐信最好是通过实例表达品格，谨记推荐信表达的意思要与个人陈述一致。提前找一个真正了解你、与你关系比较好的老师去写推荐信，班主任、数学老师和英语老师一般是比较好的选择。 6.财力证明 美国大学还会要求学生提供财力证明，以示学生有能力负担其本科教育开支。 申请美本名校硬性指标 三个成绩+AP 1，托福成绩： 申请美国名校，托福成绩最好在108分及以上，且单项不低于26分。国际学生及在美国居住不满3年的学生如果希望申请美国大学需要提供托福成绩;美国名校更看重学生的英语应用能力。
建议可以在高一的暑假开始接触托福考试，暑假结束的时候可以考一次试试看。然后利用高二 上学期空余的时间好好准备取得一个不错的成绩。 2，SAT成绩： SAT是美国高考，分SAT1和SAT2。在招生中首先看重的是SAT成绩(名校更看重SAT阅读成绩)，这个成绩对是否被录取的影响是决定性的。目前国内高中生要去香港或者新加坡等地考试。SAT1的 分数至少要达到1800+、SAT阅读至少650+才有可能被前30名校录取;SAT2大多数学生会选择数学、化学、物理、生物、语言、文学、美国历史、世界历史等科目，美国名校申请需要考2-3门SAT2。 中国学生最差的就是SAT阅读，而SAT阅读是美国名校在三科(阅读、数学、写作)最为看重的。 建议可以在高二寒假的时候可以接触一下SAT考试，然后充分准备后高二结束前的五月可以考 一次SAT1，六月可以考SAT2。这样即使第一次SATI考得不是最理想，也可以十月，十一月的时候 再试。 值得提醒的是SAT考试应该有充分的准备后才去考。因为有些学校的送分政策规定会查阅学生 每次考试成绩，第一次的成绩太差或者考试次数太多都会影响招生官对你的评价。 3，学校成绩： 学校成绩一般包括GPA(平均成绩)、年级排名、各科考试分数。GPA是申请者在高中阶段总成绩的体现，年级排名体现申请者与同学校其他申请人的差距。你需要从九年级也就是国内的初中三年 级开始保持在校成绩优异，高中成绩最好呈现上升趋势。在高中，选课的时候不要太偏科。因为很 多大学在录取学生的时候对学生高中所修的课程也会有一定的要求。比如说加州大学的各个分校要 求申请者在中学阶段必须完成4学年的英文学习，两学年有实验的理科课程，三学年数学课程(包括基础代数，几何和中级代数)等等。 4，AP： AP课程并非是申请美国名校的必考项目。但如果参加AP课程考试并取得好成绩，对申请顶尖 大学是极为有利的。AP课程考试成绩优异的话，可以让大学招生官认为该学生渴望追求知识、学习 非常主动、敢于挑战自己，从而增添获得录取的可能性。另一方面，在进入大学后，如果AP课程考试成绩好，有可能直接申请大学学分，从而免修相应大学课程，缩短学习时间，节省学费。 申请美本名校软性指标 活动 课外活动参加运动队和宗教活动，考古、创办社团、创办杂志、举办活动;培刚多次强调活动在于持久而不在于多，如果申请者三年参与2个活动且都担任主要角色，比泛泛的参加5、6个活动效果强百倍。

如何发表一场精彩的英语演讲(精选多篇) 第一篇：如何发表一场精彩的英语演讲 1.演讲前的准备 准备是搞好演讲的前提。首先是要确立一个题目或一个话题。一般演讲赛都分为命题演讲和即兴演讲。如要进行演讲比赛则必须对各个方面加以准备：政治、经济、文化、教育等，找好立意点，拟定题目，如政治方面的演讲主题：wto、统一、和平与发展、机遇与挑战；经济方面演讲主题：西部大开发、农村经济、再就业；教育方面演讲方题：中西方教育的不同、远程教育、终身教育、枪手；文化方面演讲主题：文化的交流与融合、校园文化；环保方面演讲主题：manandnature；科技方面演讲主题：网络、克隆、基因；卫生方面演讲主题：keepphysicallyandmentallyhealthy；体育方面演讲主题：olympics……有些方面题目太大，可从多角度和多侧面思考，找好切入点，将题目细化和具体化，写出演讲稿的提纲，构思和组织演讲稿结构。 拟定好话题后的第二步就是演讲材料的收集与整理。其中最好的方法就是有计划地阅读大量的英语原文以及各类英语报刊杂志，阅读是一个循序渐进的过程，同时也是培养英语思维的过程，对提高英语的口头表达能力和书面表达能力是至关重要的。利用有关资源与材料（如图书、报刊、杂志或网络资源等）收集所需的内容。然后对材料
加以整理或进行梳理，舍弃不太重要的内容或用不上的材料，准备写演讲稿。 2.演讲稿的写作 演讲稿首先开头要开门见山，既要一下子抓住听众又要提出你的观点，中间要用各种方法和所准备的材料说明、支持你的论点，感染听众，然后在结尾加强说明论点或得出结论，结束演讲。 演讲稿的写作有严格的要求，就内容而言要主题鲜明，表达完整；就文章组织结构而言要思维清晰，逻辑性强；就语言而言要有感染力、形象生动。写作时可根据需要有效、正确地使用英语写作方法和技巧，如恰当地运用明喻、暗喻、夸张等各种修辞方法，用词要准确，尽量避免使用生僻、模糊、晦涩的字词。总之，要考虑听众对象，注意演讲的措辞，但又要简明扼要、有理有力、结构紧凑。许多着名的演说家的不朽之作都有振奋人心、扭转乾坤般的力量。从马丁．路德．金的“ihaveadream”，美国总统林肯所作的着名的盖茨堡演说，到克林顿在北大的演说，不少句子都成为不朽的佳句，值得认真研读。 3.进行演讲 具备演讲的知识和技巧，演讲稿的完成只是演讲的序幕，要进行成功的演讲则要进行严格的训练。训练时，分析演讲要领，训练演讲技巧和姿势语，观看cctv杯和爱立信杯等英语演讲的录像，了解并按

备考高考写作专题1 记叙文 重点诠释： 1．记叙文是以叙述人物的经历或事物的发展变化的过程为主的一种文体。 2．在记叙文体的高考书面表达中，命题形式主要是提纲式或图表式。 3．通常要求考生以第一人称或第三人称来写作，第一人称主要是写自己的经历，第三人称主要是写他人的经历或事迹。 4．由于记叙文叙述的事情通常发生在过去，因而，其时态主要用一般过去时。 5．记叙文通常是按照事情发展的先后顺序来表达内容的。 写作典例： 请仔细看一下下面的图画，注意图画中的细节： 假设你是李华，在美国探亲。2000年2月8日清晨，你的目击一起交通事故。警察局让你写一份材料，报告当时所见情况。根据下列图画写出报告。 注意：1、目击者应该准确报告事实； 2、词数100左右； 3、结尾已为你写好 剖析：本题图文结合，审题时要重视细节。 1 明确写作要求： 本题要求写一篇目击者的报告，用第一人称写； 2 认真审图，确认全部信息要点： ①图中的环境条件； ②人物位置（此点对完成本题十分重要）；③人物活动；④人物表情；⑤空间结构； ⑥图中的全部附加文字（英语和汉语）。 3 确定内容要点： ①时间：2000年2月8日早晨7点15分； ②地点：公园路公园门前； ③我正沿公园路向东走； ④一辆汽车从第3街向右拐，驶入公园路时撞倒了一位过街的老人；
⑤汽车未停，沿公园路向西开走； ⑥汽车是黄色的，车牌号是AC864，司机是一位女性。 One Possible version: It was 7 : 15 on the morning of February 8, 2000. I was walking along Park Road towards the east when an elderly man came out of the park on the other side of the street. Then I saw a yellow car drive up Third Street and make a right turn into Park Road. The next moment the car hit the man while he was crossing the road. He fell with a cry. The car didn't stop but drove off at great speed heading west. I noticed the driver was a young woman and the plate number was AC864. About two minutes later I stopped a passing car and took the old man to the nearest hospital. ．高考是全社会关注的大事，学校和家庭表现尤为突出。家庭成员对考生从学习到生活给予无微不至的"关怀"，结果却给考生带来负面影响。根据图画所描述的内容写一篇文章,并发表自己的观点(夹叙夹议)。词数120左右。 As the College Entrance Examination is drawing near，________________________。 As the College Entrance Examination is drawing near, the situation is getting worse and worse. From the picture, we can see that Li Ming is "studying hard". There are many books for him to read and many papers for him to do. How poor he is! At the same time, all his family are also busy working for him. Nowadays, many parents expect too much of their sons or daughters. They hope that their sons or daughters study hard in order to be admitted to an ideal college or a key university. It is for this reason that parents are strict with their children. However, they don’t realize wh at they have become a heavy burden or a great pressure. It is the hard work or the great pressure that changes their children that much. So I hope parents provide a proper environment for their children. Only in this way, will they try their best and succeed at last! 本文是夹叙夹议类的文章，主要反映家庭对考生的特别"关注"给他们带来负面影响。在写作过程中，对主题要审准、审清，对发展过程和结果进行叙述。
