College is a big deal for American students as well as for Chinese students. During the college 41 ， some parents become extremely worried. This may only 42 the pressure.
Before I applied to the college, I told my parents I would get everything 43 out. If I needed any help, I promised that I would ask them.
As it 44_ out, I had no problem putting everything together on my 45 ， including my resume(履历) and a basic outline of my activities in high school. The 46 part where I asked for my parents' advice was the essays. In writing and revising the essays, I needed feedback(反馈) from an audience. As my parents know me better than 47 else, they were 48 for the job.
The essays are extremely important in college admissions. In a competitive pool of applicants, the test scores and activities, as well as the recommendations are all going to be very 49 . The essays are the one area in which students can make themselves stand 50 . Essays don't have to be big and complicated. I wrote three essays, all 51 on small matters and using simple sentences. The admission officers have to read hundreds of essays a day; they are already 52 of SAT vocabularies and long sentences. 53 ， a straightforward writing style is refreshing to their eyes as well as their minds. Essays were the key to my success in the admission game. I just wrote about what I wanted to say, not what I thought the admission officers 54 to hear.
In my main narrative－style 55 ， I told the story of my American journey at the age of 14. During that time, I was not bogged down(陷入) by trying to fit into a new 56 ； instead, I looked up to Mother Teresa for guidance and strength. I found my new 57 and grew to love the name Teresa and the memories it held.
In my two minor essays, I 58 the major events of my life, why I loved writing and why my dad is the person who has the greatest influence on me. Both provided details of my character. The essay about writing, which is titled, “I Shall Not Live in Vain” ( 59 by an Emily Dickinson poem), earned a lot of praise.
It is 60 I really looked into my heart and thought deeply in order to reach my answers.
