We are all faced with challenges constantly in every area of our lives. 71

The truth is that you will have to deal with difficult problems throughout your life, whether it is in your personal life or career. Most of us get really afraid and run away from problems because we don’t want to accept reality. Running away from your problems is the worst thing you can do to deal with the challenges you are faced with. Here are some tips for you on learning how to deal with everyday challenges.

Please bear in mind that you shouldn’t overact when coming across challenges. Overacting to a problem will cause you to make bad decisions. 72 Next time you are faced with a challenge, stay calm so you can make smarter decisions.

73 If you cannot accept reality, you will feel very frustrated with your life. Once you can accept reality, you will be able to be calmer and think more clearly about how to get a step closer towards your goals every day.

Many people make a habit of blaming others for all their problems. They fail to take full responsibility for the decisions they have made in life. The more you blame others for the challenges you are faced with, the more you will make people dislike you and not want to be around you.74

Don’t compare your lifestyle with others. Of course, it is really difficult not to compare ourselves with other people. However, the more often we do that, the more frustrated we will feel. 75 The key thing to remember is that you create your own story and success in life.

E. When we are not in control of our emotions, we will make decisions that we will regret later.

F. However, most people have a hard time accepting and dealing with these challenges that arise.

G.As a result, the first thing you should do when faced with a personal challenge is not point fingers at others.

One of the big challenges that students face in applying to universities abroad is writing the application essay．

The essay topics all have something in common. They attempt to get at what type of person you are, what motivates you，and what you feel passion for. In a single 500-word piece of writing，

admissions officers(招生负责人)attempt to gather all about you. So your task is of your personality on the essay and make yourself special.

You can try and guess what the admissions officers like. But that won’t work．The essay will sound empty and become another dull piece of writing，which admissions officers get thousands of each year．

It is true that admissions officers aren’t exactly looking for anything. The answer is just as open-ended as the question itself. If they ask for someone who has inspired you, it could be anyone. It could be a grandmother, a teacher, or even a character from a movie. A lot of people will say their dad. But since you really feel it, you’ll have a lot to write about.

There are some important things to remember．These admissions officers want good writers. You don't have to be Ernest Hemingway, but you have to be able to form an interesting story．That means revision(校对)and editing，cutting out stupid grammar mistakes，reading it over several times，leaving it for a few days and looking at it again. Whatever you do, make sure the essay is as good as possible.

Also，you should use exciting language and really make the reader feel the same passion as you do. It also means finding something unique about your point of view, something that other people might not think of．For example，if you want to write about your dad, you can focus on a specific anecdote(趣闻)about him .Admissions officers love personal stories that ring true．

1.The purpose of the passage is to give advice on how to_________.

A. choose an essay topic                                     B. read the officers’ minds

C. be a good writer                                           D write an effective application

2.The underlined part of paragraph 2 suggests that you__________.

A. stick enough stamps before posting your application essay

B. write something unique in an essay to impress the readers

C. take the task of showing off yourself seriously

D. pay attention to your personal essay

3. When admissions officers ask who has inspired you，they mean to________.

A. know about your family members               B. understand you better

C. find out what your father does                             D. discover your personal affairs

4. According to the writer, it is wise to produce an essay with__________.

A.500 beautiful words   B. many funny things   C. truthful specific stories   D. indirect answers
