Kevin Wang from MIT
One of my greatest high school experiences was working with Professor Carlos Simmerling at Stony Brook University. His research involving protein modeling on supercomputers was at the confluence of biology and computer science, my two greatest interests at the time. Working in a lab was a valuable experience for many reasons. It gave me an insiders look into what doing research was like.
我在高中期间意义非凡的一件事是在纽约州立大学石溪分校的斯默林教授的指导下所进行课题研究。他的课题涉及到在超型计算机上做蛋白质模型的模拟，是生物学和计算机学科在交叉学科上的体现之一。那也正是我在高中时的最爱。从各方面讲，在实验室工作是一件很有益的经历。它让我了解到科学研究是如何进行的。

 Vice President for College Application —
Wenxin Xu from Harvard University
I came to the US from China at the age of 4, and my family now lives in Toronto. I am currently studying Chemical and Physical Biology at Harvard University. My interests lie with the sciences: I was national winner of the Chemical Institute of Canada's 2005 chemistry competition, and I have enjoyed doing research in the medical schools at both Wayne State University and the University of Toronto. I enjoy casual chess, cross-country running, and dabble in contemporary Chinese martial arts. During the school term, I also teach a weekend ESL class for immigrants in Boston.
我四岁随父母从中国到美国，现家住多伦多。我在哈佛大学读生物化学和生物物理。我对科学较感兴趣，2005年曾获得过加拿大化学协会竞赛第一名,近年来每个暑假都在Wayne State University医学院和University of Toronto医学院做研究。我喜欢国际象棋，长跑，和中国武术。现在是哈佛中国武术队的队长，并在周末义务为波士顿地区的移民上英语课。

Tae Kwon
Do is an important part of my life.
It teaches me how to find
my individuality and how to conquer fear. Learning how to respect others is
important, but Tae Kwon Do teaches me how to respect myself first. If one does
not know how to treat himself or herself with respect, how can he or she respect
others? Tae Kwon Do makes me aggressive in reaching my goals with focus and
integrity. At the end of the day, I learned not to cry when I was punished to do
fifty knuckle push-ups. This is the sprit of Tae Kwon Do. That is why I am no
longer afraid of obstacles ahead of me. This fall, I will be the youngest
instructor of the Tae Kwon Do club and the one to pass down this art of life.
跆拳道是我生命中的重要部分。跆拳道使我明白如何寻找到自我和怎样占胜恐惧。它还使我懂得，尊重他人固然重要，但首先要尊重自己。如果人不知如何尊重自己，他就不能尊重他人。跆拳道培养了我的毅力来一鼓作气地达到我的目标。当我被罚做50
个用指关节支撑起来的俯卧撑的时候，我不会哭泣。这就是跆拳道的精髓所在--我不再会被困难吓倒。 这个秋天，我将成为我们跆拳道俱乐部最年轻的教练。
我也将把这些智慧和毅力一一传授下去。

The Erhu is a kind of violin with two strings and a popular instrument in China. We take Erhu class at our Chinese school. Also we have Erhu performance in the activities at local Chinese
community. We
perform beautiful Night and Horse Race at the celebration of Chinese New
Year and China Night organized by Oklahoma Chinese Student Society. I enjoy playing Erhu very much.

"Many reasons draw me to ballet. Joy in movement, delight in team-work,
a desire to perform, or simply a love of music can make you wish for
dancing. It builds self-confidence, good posture and strong muscles.
Attending a ballet performance on the stage is very exciting!"
--Cynthia, a G4 student in Ontario, who wishes to be a ballerina and a
mathematician in the future, is practicing ballet in the studio for the
performance held by Young Dancers of Canada.
许多原因促使我学跳芭蕾。热衷运动，团队合作，喜欢演出，甚至很简单喜爱音乐都能让你渴望跳舞。芭蕾舞能建立自信，优美的形态和健壮的肌肉。站在舞台上参加一场芭蕾舞演出是非常令人兴奋的事。
