下面我們重點介紹Emily Anderson的例子：

Congratulations to Emily Anderson (G12) who received and accepted an admission offer from Brigham Young University (BYU) in Provo, Utah. Emily has a 4.0 unweighted GPA, scored 36 on the ACT (out of 36 possible), and was awarded BYU’s most prestigious scholarship, the Russell M. Nelson Presidential Scholarship. The scholarship provides Emily with a four-year, full tuition-and-a-half, scholarship. Congratulations, Emily!

恭喜瑞得福國際學(xué)校12年級的美籍學(xué)生——Emily Anderson同學(xué)收到并接受了猶他州普羅沃市的楊百翰大學(xué)(BYU)的錄取通知。進(jìn)入楊百翰大學(xué)學(xué)習(xí)是Anderson家族的傳統(tǒng)和首選項。Emily的未加權(quán)GPA(平均績點)是4.0，在ACT(美國大學(xué)入學(xué)考試)上得分為36(滿分36分)，并獲得了楊百翰大學(xué)最負(fù)盛名的獎學(xué)金——羅素·M·納爾遜會長獎學(xué)金。該獎學(xué)金為Emily提供了為期四年的全額學(xué)費減免，外加給予每年半額書本費、生活費津貼。祝賀Emily!

Incidentally, BYU’s top academic scholarship is named for Russell M. Nelson, who speaks Mandarin and has been recognized as an “Old Friend of China” for his work to introduce open-heart surgery to China through Shandong University School of Medicine in Jinan, Shandong, China, where he taught open-heart surgery and performed operations in the 1980s.

順便說一句，楊百翰大學(xué)的最高學(xué)術(shù)獎學(xué)金以羅素·M·納爾遜(Russell M. Nelson)來命名的。納爾遜先生能講中文，還被公認(rèn)為“中國的老朋友”，因為他曾通過濟(jì)南的山東大學(xué)醫(yī)學(xué)院向中國引進(jìn)了心臟直視手術(shù)。這是上世紀(jì)80年代的事情了，他曾在這里親自主刀并且向?qū)W生傳授了心臟直視手術(shù)。

( Heritage Halls，Emily大學(xué)期間將會居住于此)

At present, Emily wants to major in Mathematics Education, and earn a minor in Chinese language or Asian Studies. She says, “Professionally, a major in math education will enable me to work anywhere in the world. I want to become an excellent math teacher who helps students feel the satisfaction and joy that comes from solving difficult problems. When I moved to China, I was blessed to meet teachers who planted a love of math in me. RDF’s math program was fast-paced and challenging, but as I wrestled with math concepts and eventually mastered them, I was able to help my friends and siblings with their math. I realized that I not only love math, but I also enjoy helping others understand math. I will teach my students that one formula for success in math is persistence in asking questions and diligence in practice.” Congratulations, and best wishes, Emily!

目前，Emily想要主修數(shù)學(xué)教育專業(yè)，輔修中文或亞洲研究。她說：“專業(yè)上，數(shù)學(xué)教育專業(yè)將使我能夠去到世界任何地方工作。我想成為一名優(yōu)秀的數(shù)學(xué)老師，這樣我也可以幫助學(xué)生從解決難題中獲得滿足感和喜悅感。當(dāng)我剛來中國的時候，我很幸運認(rèn)識那些讓我熱愛上了數(shù)學(xué)的老師。瑞得福國際學(xué)校的數(shù)學(xué)課程節(jié)奏快且富有挑戰(zhàn)性，但是當(dāng)我竭盡全力學(xué)習(xí)數(shù)學(xué)的概念，并最終掌握它們時，我就能夠幫助我的朋友和兄弟姐妹學(xué)習(xí)數(shù)學(xué)了。我意識到自己不僅愛數(shù)學(xué)，而且還享受幫助他人理解數(shù)學(xué)的過程。我會告訴我的學(xué)生，學(xué)好數(shù)學(xué)的一個秘訣就是堅持問問題和在實踐中勤奮學(xué)習(xí)?！?再次恭喜Emily，祝愿她以后的學(xué)業(yè)一切順利!
