To
Whom It May Concern:
CHANGSHA
Middle School, a key middle school in HUNAN province, always
boasts a large number of brilliant students who are admitted
each year to the top-ranking colleges and universities of
China like Beijing University and TSINGHUA University for
higher education. And now, here is another such talented
youngster named HUANG RUI, whom I'd like to recommend to
you with such delight and pleasure.
My strong
recommendation will never be fair without referring to Huang's
records of English level and power of practical English.
In the years of senior high school, her English records
never failed in ranking among the top five of the whole
grade of the school (around 500 students). In May 2002,
she was awarded the first prize at the TV English Contest
for the middle school students around the city, which was
sponsored by the CHANGSHA Education Commission. She had
been presiding over the English TV program of "Talk
Show" on a CHANGSHA channel for quite a long time.
She served as the backbone, frequently engaged in the external
public functions of the school as is illustrated through
various activities:
She
welcomed the President and his delegation of Yale University
at the airport; She received a goodwill visiting delegation
from a fraternal school of Japan and, she once served as
the Chief Guide for greeting the visiting delegation of
diplomats from 24 countries.
HUANG
developed here in an all-round way -- morally, intellectually,
physically and aesthetically. She was well trained in all
the subjects, with academic records kept at 5-10% of her
class (around 60 students). She excelled all her peers in
efficiency of study, thereby ensuring regular studies in
school and meanwhile, tempering herself through all sorts
of activities on and outside the campus. I have every reason
to believe that that she will be fully capable of passing
the entrance examination to a topnotch university of China.
With
a cheerful and extrovert disposition, she was good at socializing.
She jumped at any chance of getting involved in all the
rewarding studies and social activities. Last year saw her
participation in the Forum of International Juvenile in
KAGOSHIMA of Japan, as a representative of the school and
the city of CHANGSHA. She was conferred the honorary title
"citizen of friendship" and praised highly by
the mayor of Japan. In the second half-year term of senior
high school when classes were divided into science and arts,
many classes shrank from the topic research activities arranged
for the school's Week of Mass Organizations. However, she
volunteered without the slightest hesitation to lead her
classmates to hack their way through difficulties and accomplish
several study reports on urban environmental planning, for
which she was highly commended by the leaders and teachers
of the school as well as the specialists in the field. The
collective honor of her class ("Excellent Class of
the City") was always related to her crucial contributions
at the critical moment.
My recommendation
will not be complete if I fail to mention one more point.
That was her amateur hobbies and special skills. She was
on the school's dance team and crazy about photography,
computer, caricature and swimming, etc.
The
last but not the least is her good marks of TOEFL as high
as 637. Her goal would be to major in the first-rate undergraduate
courses with full scholarship in the United States. I am
really proud of the student with such lofty aspirations.
Yours
Sincerely
