NYT學(xué)術(shù)活動(dòng)是什么
New York Times Summer Reading Contest 紐約時(shí)報(bào)夏季讀寫比賽是《紐約時(shí)報(bào)》從2010年起每年夏天都會(huì)舉辦的學(xué)術(shù)活動(dòng)。
該學(xué)術(shù)活動(dòng)邀請(qǐng)世界各地的中學(xué)生一起閱讀《紐約時(shí)報(bào)》文章,發(fā)表自己的見解,不僅培養(yǎng)了學(xué)生的自我表達(dá)能力,還增強(qiáng)了學(xué)生讀書看報(bào)的樂(lè)趣,激勵(lì)他們多留意身邊的世界,感受與思考人與生活等關(guān)系。
截止至今,全球已有超過(guò)8萬(wàn)名的中學(xué)生參與到該學(xué)術(shù)活動(dòng)中。每一年,優(yōu)秀學(xué)生作品也都會(huì)發(fā)表在紐約時(shí)報(bào)官方網(wǎng)站上。
文理科生“爬藤”的賽事——必須選擇NYT的五大理由
1.《紐約時(shí)報(bào)》官方主辦
紐約時(shí)報(bào)作為美國(guó)乃至世界知名的新聞報(bào)刊平臺(tái),多年來(lái)一直堅(jiān)持舉辦包括社論、個(gè)人敘事、讀寫、攝影等一系列全球性英文寫作學(xué)術(shù)活動(dòng)。其舉辦的比賽具有很高的含金量。如果同學(xué)們能在比賽中獲得認(rèn)可,不僅能證明自己的英文寫作能力,還可以提升自己的學(xué)術(shù)、創(chuàng)意寫作背景。
2.含金量高
參與NYT不僅可以積累學(xué)術(shù)活動(dòng)經(jīng)驗(yàn),一旦你的作品脫穎而出,就能在《紐約時(shí)報(bào)》網(wǎng)站刊登,獲得具有含金量的升學(xué)籌碼,向大學(xué)展示人文背景和例證寫作能力。
3.不限制專業(yè)
NYT并沒(méi)有專業(yè)限制,未來(lái)想申請(qǐng)文科/理科都能參加!以文科見長(zhǎng)的同學(xué),能靠它體現(xiàn)自己的理工科思維和科學(xué)素養(yǎng);擅長(zhǎng)理工科的同學(xué),能靠它打出“差異化”,擺脫刻板印象,讓招生官眼前一亮!
4.更多的獲獎(jiǎng)機(jī)會(huì)
NYT在投稿方面為參賽者拿獎(jiǎng)提供了一定試錯(cuò)機(jī)會(huì)!即參賽期間任意一周均可投稿,但每人每周只能提交1篇作品。這意味著,如果你第一周沒(méi)有獲獎(jiǎng),可以在第二周繼續(xù)提交新的作品,學(xué)術(shù)活動(dòng)結(jié)束前可以持續(xù)沖擊獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)!對(duì)于參賽者而言,這個(gè)比賽機(jī)制無(wú)疑能帶來(lái)更多的獲獎(jiǎng)機(jī)會(huì)!
5.積累文書素材,鍛煉寫作能力
美國(guó)大學(xué)的申請(qǐng)文書都需要跟個(gè)人經(jīng)歷和思想作聯(lián)系,是最令人頭痛的!參加這項(xiàng)比賽,是大學(xué)和夏校申請(qǐng)文書寫作很好的熱身,不僅能夠幫助學(xué)生提高讀寫能力,還能幫助學(xué)生更好的理解美國(guó)主流報(bào)刊的觀點(diǎn)、內(nèi)容和寫作方式。是一次難得的積累文書素材的絕佳機(jī)會(huì)!

獲獎(jiǎng)文章賞析:2021年獲獎(jiǎng)文章
“Why do American grocery stores still have an ethnic aisle?”
It was just another stuffy and sluggish California afternoon when I accompanied my mother — who was pregnant with my little sister at the time — to the grocery store.
“Can you find the Lao Gan Ma?” my mother asked in our native tongue. I studied the aisle directory, but I couldn’t piece together the letters to form words, and therefore it was of no help. After a short while, we agreed to consult a store worker.And that was when we first discovered the Ethnic Aisle.
Priya Krishna writes that Cuong Pham, the owner of a food company, “said the aisle seems to exist more for those looking to find ingredients new to them than for the communities whose cuisines are represented there.” But for people with limited English vocabulary like us, having ethnic foods arranged in one area makes our shopping trips much easier. Without any guidance, people with little exposure to English will find themselves lost as they try to find a sauce or premade appetizer for their meal.
On that sultry summer afternoon, the ethic aisle provided my mother and me with the flavors of our homeland: savory bean paste and sticky rice — identical to before. It became our favorite area in the store. Even now, my family still makes frequent visits to the “ethic aisle” of many grocery stores. As my mom browsed for her favorite oyster sauce, I would drag my little sister with me and point to familiar labels saying excitedly, “I had that when I was little!” and smile at the memory of those Californian supermarkets.
