论文部分内容阅读
She fell on the threshold of two thousand. with her hands tied in failure，It is the judge who burns her visions of glory. Ashes of her dream stick on the tearing cheek...
她在2000分的临界点上败下阵来。正是阅卷人用火烧毁她的荣耀。梦想的灰烬粘在她泪流的脸庞。
That was just me crying and dramatizing，after my SAT score had come out last October which had not reached the two thousand bar. As unnecessary as it might be，I was so hopeless，a failure.
这是去年十月收到SAT成绩，我哭得伤心时心里的戏剧化反应。现在听上去有多么的无关紧要，但当时的我是那样的绝望，一个失败者。
Flying from the cage，the vitality of life revives under the sunshine， almost missing the arrival of spring. When she looking back，the gate is never locked. She confines her own wings.
从笼子里飞了出来，生命的活力在阳光下复苏，差一点就错过了春天的到来。回头去看，原来大门从来没有上锁。她把自己圈禁在了自己的翅膀里。
While the AP Calculus BC exam was in progress on May 8th，I wasn’t there due to my sickness. Instead，I was downtown with my discovery group. For the first time，I had freed myself from the pressure of academic perfection. I enjoyed the warmth of the sun on that beautiful spring day，no tears no shame.
5月8日，当微积分考试正在进行的时候，因为我的病，我没有去。取而代之的，我和我的探索小组去了趟小镇。那是第一次，我把自己从追求学术上的完美里解放出来。我享受着那个美丽的春天里温暖的阳光，没有眼泪，没有羞耻。
I have been searching for the roots of my thyroid disease. Six years of medication did not cure it. The surgery did not cure it. So what is the element I need？At the Senior Women’s Dessert two weeks ago，I found the answer when I picked my wisdom stone. On it was the word， serenity.
我一直在寻找我病情的根源。六年的药物没有治愈我。手术没有治愈我。那我需要的是一种什么样的元素呢？在两周前学校为毕业女生和女老师准备的甜点聚会上，在挑选我的智慧石的时候，我找到了那个答案。我的石头上写着一个词，serenity，内心的宁静。
When people told me，“Purple， you had a great year.”I would tell them，“No，I could have done so much more if I were healthy...”My unsettledness，indignation，and anger would never allow me to reach the inner peace that is the most powerful cure. There is no fire，no judge. There is just me，with my dream and the sun.
当别人告诉我，“Purple，你今年非常优秀”的时候，我曾这样回答他们，“不，如果我没有生病的话我还可以做的有好多好多。”我的不安、愤慨和怒气永远无法让我取得内心的宁静。而这种宁静才是最有能量的治愈。这儿从来没有毁灭的火，也没有审判者。有的只是我，我的梦想和阳光。
Excellence and perfectionism are different. I’m so grateful for this place，and the people here who have taught me the wisdom to tell the difference.
优秀和完美是不同的。是学校，教给了我洞悉它们差别的智慧。对这里的人我有说不完的感恩。
Thank You！
谢谢！
