Unit One Personal Statement
Task Objective
In this unit you will learn how to write a personal statement.
个人陈述通常简写为PS，是美国、英国、加拿大等国外高校录取时由申请人撰写的关于自己的介绍性文章，主要用于提供个人背景、学术成就、拟申请的专业及研究计划、未来职业规划目标等信息，同时展示申请人的文字表述能力。个人陈述是极具个性化的留学申请材料。
个人陈述的基本要素包括：
1. 个人情况—— 与学业相关的个人性格特质和兴趣爱好、个人信息、家庭情况等。
2. 学术背景—— 已奠定的学术基础或具备的学术潜力，先修课程、成绩情况，实习经历。
3. 研修计划—— 拟申请的专业、学位，对所申请院校、学位及专业的了解。
4. 未来规划—— 完成学业之后的学术或职业发展规划。
个人陈述的具体内容和逻辑结构因人而异，没有明确统一的模式。重点介绍申请人的学习动机和专业背景，既体现申请人对未来学习计划、职业规划所进行的科学、合理的分析和思考，也要反映申请人对自己的专业经验、个人素质的合理评价。
个人陈述的长度通常视院校要求而定。一般而言，学校会给出300~500词、500词以内、1000 词以内、1~2 页A4 纸长度以内等篇幅限制。如申请院校对个人陈述不做具体字数要求，实际写作以800~900 词长度为宜。
Task Preparation
Ⅰ. Sample
Sample 1
My initial passion for mechanics came from my father who works in the mechanical industry. I visited his company frequently in my childhood and he taught me simple knowledge about mechanics at home. Even though some of the theories and techniques were too difficult for me at that time, I became increasingly curious about mechanics. For instance, I could spend a long time taking a broken clock apart and trying to find the problem with it. Most of the time, due to my limited knowledge and skills, I couldn’t fit what I took apart together. In this case, I would consult with my father for technical suggestions until I got things repaired. Mending mechanical things gave me joy and a sense of achievement. Therefore, I chose Process Equipment and Control Engineering, a subject in mechanics, as my undergraduate major without hesitation.
I really appreciated my choice of Dalian University of Technology, a state key university professional for science and technological education, for my undergraduate studies. During four years of systematic education and practice, I formed a deeper understanding of mechanics and further increased my passion for the subject. In the courses I attended like “Theoretical Mechanics,”“Basis of Mechanical Designing,” and “Mechanics of Materials,” I learnt specifications and considerations in manual drawing, and mastered relevant theories. Further, as my undergraduate major combined mechanics with chemical engineering, my knowledge scope was broadened to areas such as chemical engineering principles and fluid dynamics. Instead of distracting me from enhancing my professional expertise, it deepened my insight about mechanics and relevant issues
