考研复试中的面试环节,应如何自我介绍?
一般而言,考研复试,自我介绍是必须的,也必须提前准备好,背到滚瓜烂熟,通常三到五分钟。内容应该包含基本信息、读研原因、本科期间的亮点/优势。其他内容像兴趣爱好等等可说可不说,看自我介绍时间的长短。
下面是我当时准备的英文自我介绍,当时找了六级600+,首战托福109的英语大神修改了好几遍,句子通俗易懂,又不至于是简单句的堆砌。
Good morning, professors. I am really glad to be here for this interview. Now, please allow me to give a brief self-introduction. (问候)
My name is ××, 22 years old. I was born in Dali, a beautiful city in Yunnan province. It was when I entered the Southeast University 4 years ago that I officially became a student majoring in Road and Bridge Engineering. Through studying Professional knowledge and reading books involving relevant specialty, I find myself gradually obsessed with the charm of this major and would like to make some contributions in this field. At the same time, I realize that until now what I have learned is far from enough for this target, so I take it necessary to continue my learning in this field, that is, I choose to go further with my study to achieve a master’s degree. (基本信息:姓名、年龄、家乡、 本科学校、专业,说到专业后,进一步介绍想要读研的原因:对专业感兴趣,渴望深造学习)
During the four years in this beautiful college, I have been studying very hard and was granted scholarship several times such as National Encouragement scholarship and Mathematics curriculum Award. In addition, I participated in various subject competitions actively such as The Zhou Peiyuan Mechanics Competition for College Students, Structural contest, Mechanical contest, Mathematical model competition and CAD skills competition. (突出本科的一些亮点:所获奖项,参加的竞赛/项目等)
In my spare time,I enjoy taking part in some activities held by student clubs. Moreover, table tennis, badminton, Chinese chess and riding are my passions, which enrich my campus life very much, and also benefit me in many ways, like keeping fit, making lots of friends as well as developing my logic intelligence.(兴趣爱好)
Last but not least, I am easy-going, open-minded, and warm-hearted, therefore, I have established good relationship with my classmates. As is well-known, Southeast University is an outstanding college with perfect academic atmosphere and highly qualified faculty. And I would appreciate it if you could give me the chance for further study! (夸一夸目标院校,并表示非常渴望进入目标院校学习)
That’s all. Thanks for your attention!
►注意事项
(1)自我介绍的把控:自我介绍,千万不要让老师觉得你是在面无表情的背书,语调一定要有起有伏,配合一定的面部表情+手势,当然也不用一直笑(脸上肌肉容易僵硬)。
(2)自我介绍一定一定一定要背到滚瓜烂熟,做到那种一句接一句脱口而出的感觉。否则,考场上是很紧张的,非常容易忘词;那怎么做到滚瓜烂熟了?很简单,第一遍背熟之后,每天不论是在去食堂的路上,还是去图书馆的路上,一边走就一边背吧,睡前再在心里默背一遍,稿子截图放手机,忘词了随时拿出来扫一眼,几天之后保证滚瓜烂熟!
(3)如果真忘词了怎么办?跳过,直接到下一段,如果快临近结尾忘词了,直接最后一句That’s all. Thanks for your attention! 千万不要一忘词就在那左思右想,抓耳挠腮,场面巨尴尬,你会巨紧张,结果可想而知!
►英文面试过程中常见的英文提问
每个专业得英文提问不尽相同,有的可能只是一两个简单的常见问题,而有的专业可能会问一些专业问题,所以这也需要提前从学长学姐那里了解,以作准备。
常见问题的话,一般就那么一些,是可以好好准备的,下面是几个常见的问题:
Q1:How do you plan to study for your graduate programme?(你对研究生生涯是如何规划的?)
A1. In my opinion, the study method is of great importance for research. So firstly , I will choose a certain approach in my study area with your guidance ; Then, I will draw a pragmatic Research plan and time schedule. I hope I can form a systematical view of my major; Thirdly , I will make myself be familiar with the latest development of this area by reading books and journals. I do hope I will get somewhere in this field. If necessary, I will continue my research and study to earn the PHD degree.
(首先我会在老师的指导下确定研究方向;然后做一份详尽的研究计划;第三,我会掌握研究领域前言研究成果;再表示一下,如果有必要以后有读博的打算)
Q2: Why do you plan to make master’s degree? (你为什么要读研?)
A2: During the past 4 years, Through studying Professional knowledge and reading books involving relevant specialty, I find myself gradually obsessed with the charm of this major and would like to make some contributions in this field. At the same time, I realize that until now what I have learned is far from enough for this target, and I take it necessary to continue my learning in this field, so I choose to go further with my study to achieve a master’s degree.
(在本科四年,通过学习专业知识和阅读专业书籍,我发现我对这个专业非常感兴趣,并且想为这个领域做出一点贡献。同时,我意识到我现在所学的知识离这个目标还相差很远,所以我想读研)
Q3: Why did you choose our university?(你为什么选择我们学校?)
A3: As is well-known, Southeast University is an outstanding school with perfect academic atmosphere and highly qualified faculty. So I would appreciate it if you could give me the chance for further study!
(众所周知,××是一个好学校,具有良好的学术氛围和先进的设备,所以我选择××学校)Q4: What are your spare time interests?(你的兴趣爱好是什么?)
A4: In my spare time,I enjoy taking part in some activities held by student clubs. Moreover, table tennis, badminton, Chinese chess and riding are my passions, which enrich my campus life very much, and also benefit me in many ways, like keeping fit, making lots of friends as well as developing my logic intelligence.
(在业余时间,我喜欢参加学生社团举办的活动。同时我还喜欢乒乓球、羽毛球、想起、骑行等等,这些兴趣爱好给我带来了很多的好处)
Q5. As we learn from your resume /registration form, the major of your undergraduate study is … Why do youchange your major?(从你的简历了解到,你本科的专业是××,那你为什么要转专业呢?)
(转专业的同学这个问题一定要准备,可以结合自己的实际情况稍微说一下,大概可以这么说:本科期间,通过参加××(活动/竞赛/经历),对××(专业)产生了兴趣,上面Q2回答里面的一些句子也可以直接涌上来)
以上问题是最最常见的,最最容易问到的,这里给出了我当时准备的回答,下面几个问题也是比较常见,大家可以根据自己的实际情况,自行拟定回答。
Q6: 2.What’s your major? Why do you choose it as your major?(专业)
Q7: What do you intend to do after you finish studying?(毕业后打算?)
Q8: What kind of food and dishes do people eat in your hometown?(家乡)
Q9: What do your family members do for a living?(家庭)
Q10: Describe the most unforgettable success in your life.(一件最难忘的成功经历)
上面这十个问题,基本上把最常见的话题都囊括在内啦,好好准备一下,基本上是够用了。这10个问题的回答准备充分了,很多与之相关的回答,完全可以用这些内容来回答。
但是,请记住,问题和对应的回答准备好之后,一定要好好背熟,背到滚瓜烂熟,像自我介绍那样去背!!!
没听懂老师的问题怎么办?
没听懂,很正常,请老师重复一遍就行,老师并不会觉得什么?但一定不要明明没听懂,瞎说一通,或者说一堆和问题沾不上边的套话。负责英文面试的老师,一般都在国外呆过好多年,英文水平简直不要太好,绝不可能蒙混过关的。
请老师重复问题,可以用下面的句子:
I am sorry, but would you like to repeat it?
I am sorry, but I beg your pardon.
