第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
You want your essay to be the one that is passed around the admissions office—or not. It’s a little bit like the difference between being famous and infamous.
We all know that a truthful，well-written essay that shows how the student has matured is sometimes shared among admissions staffers. 36 So how do you make your essay famous instead of infamous?
Here are some basic tips to avoid that infamous essay：
●Avoid the generic(概括的)and get specific.Don’t write that you’re“fully-developed”or that“many people have impacted”you.37
●Don't repeat information that is elsewhere in your application.38 It is important for the student to use every opportunity to show who they are and impress the admissions office.
● 39 If you have gone through difficult circumstances，you should share your story. But don't blame others.It’s important to show perseverance(毅力).A better essay will talk about how you have dealt with and overcome the obstacles you came across.
●Don’t talk about rankings.Many students love focusing on the numbers when they are writing their“why this college”essay. 40 Obviously schools are aware of their rankings.They want to know why you want to attend.
A.They believe they are praising the college by mentioning the fact that the college is highly ranked.
B.It also shows the reader that you are thinking about his or her appreciation of your writing.
C.Don’t complain.
D.For example，it is not necessary to share your participation level in your essay.
E.But I’m guessing that there are a lot more essays that produce laughter and gasps of“not again”.
F.Don’t try to cover everything in an essay.
G.Tell the reader what you’ve done，how you’ve been influenced，and by whom.

One possible version:
Dear Mike,
How is it going recently?
I will fly to your country to attend the Culture Trip to America next week. I feel excited because my dream of visiting America will come true. Through the trip, I hope to broaden my horizons as well as learn more about the customs and history of your country. Besides, it is a good chance to practice my English.
Meanwhile, one thing I’m concerned about is that I may have difficulty communicating with the local people. After all, there are many cultural differences between China and America. I’d appreciate it if you could give me some proper advice. I’m looking forward to your early reply.
Yours truly,
Li Hua
