People seldom agree with each other even in such trivial issues about whether showing off our ability to others, such our bosses, is conducive to success. It is no denying the fact that heated competition impels us to demonstrate our advantages continuously. It is indeed a wonderful way to be successful that let others know your ability. For only in this way, can we achieve our goal in the shortest time and with high efficiency. (第一句话的句式结构很好,但是我不了解这句话存在的意义。第二句话,句式也不错,但是严格说来,竞争刺激展现优势并不能说是the fact,而仅仅是你的opinion。混淆opinion与fact,可能会让一个美国改卷老师对你产生不好的印象。GRE和学术写作尤其必须杜绝这种错误。最后一句话,only, shortest,这样的措词可能让人抓住把柄。)
Initially, if a person wants to success in his territory, he extremely needs others' help rather than merely depend on himself. A worker needs to gain appreciation from his boss in order to reach a higher position. Just as in a company, in school, a student will try his best to let himself be well-liked by his teacher because his teacher decide whether he can be the class monitor(美国人选举班长可能并不是老师任命的,且美国人未必认为当上班长就是一种成功。这里可能存在文化差异。如果你一定要举这个例子,务必要加上in China). Sometimes, a distinguished professor's recommendation letter would ensure you attend the best university without too much effort(这个也仅仅局限于中国人的投机,务必加上in China,或者,我建议你将without too much effort删掉 ); therefore it is of great significance to make sure your professor know your academic skills. When some others, such as your boss, your teacher and other people related to you, find your accomplishment and specific ability, they might do a lot for your future development.
From another perspective, let others know your ability and intelligence may contribute to your talking about meaningful topics. People always like to chat with the one who has a high-level understanding so that they can learn much thing from you(这个句子人称混乱). Thus would help you forge new relationship with them, and when you confront a difficult problem, they are eager to help you and as a result the opportunity to success can be increased(As a result前面最好断句,另起一句,否则整个长句子头重脚轻). On the other hand, it is your accomplishment that attracts others and they are willing to cooperate with you. In this way, you will have a good partner, which helps you succeed. Image(imagine) that if no one knows your strength, that is to say your ability will be hided, and then whatever you do, nobody would assume an active role in helping you. It follows that you feel very tired and isolated, and even may give up. What’s more, the process of demonstrating your strength can also allow you recognize your shortcomings and drawbacks, and through others' guideless, you can become more perfect, meanwhile you are not far away from success. In my senior school, I was good at maths and usually discuss hard questions with my teacher. Since my teacher place a high value on me, he always took extra lessons for me after class and eventually I did very well in maths in college-entrance examination.
We can see numerous(numerous?数不清的。。。不够准确吧。你也就讲了几点而已) benefits that showing off our accomplishments brings from the discussion above. However, that is not to say if we are a person not good at showing off or we are a shy individual, we can(would) never be successful. Each enterpriser is a successful man or woman, while no one knows their accomplishment before see their glory and success. They achieve success through their intelligence and effort rather than through others' approval. Another typical example would be the famous painter-Van Gogh, his works were not appreciated by the public during his life, while he was called a great painter after death(一个句子只能有一套主谓宾).
In conclusion, we all expect our accomplishment be approved by others, especially by our leaders, for the reason that it could contribute to our success in a relatively/comparatively short time. With others' appreciation, you may meet your goal easier than doing thing by yourself. We live in society, so everyone attempt to let their skills be acknowledged, which is crucial to the future development.
综合来看,你的文采很好,观点很丰富。
然而,必须指出的是,你的文章内容不如上篇充实。
从整篇文章来看,你经常用到第二人称you,摆了很多大小道理和观点。
这很容易给人以“说教”的印象。
而你只不过是一个中国年轻人,讲出来的道理自然不够纯熟,加上语言文化障碍,肯定不能打动一个美国阅卷老师。
这种文章行文风格可能会显得你不够谦虚,full of assertion and opinion,让老师对你产生不好的印象。
我给你的建议:
如果你想讲道理,摆出自己的观点,尽量将话说得“圆滑”一点,不要留下缺口。可以考虑,多用might这个词,不要把话说得那么绝对。美国人很喜欢客观、谦虚的人,而我们中国人说起话来都有《人民日报》的影子,喜欢忽悠。
如果你想举例子,尽量举符合美国文化的例子,或者国际知名度较高的人和事。有很多事情和道理,其实只在我们中国大陆发生和通用。因此,某些文化差异,你不得不考虑进去。
这是我的观点,希望能对你有参考价值。
