一、国外高中生优秀英语作文

偶然在网上看到一篇国外高中生的英语作文，是位华裔，2017年被耶鲁大学录取，爱好文学、历史、国际关系和文化交流，曾经在校担任模拟联合国社长及文艺杂志文学版主编，并获得过国际学生英语奖。看到她的作文，不由得震惊其思维深度。以小见大，通过发生在自己身上的一件小事，拓展到文化、世界观，加上自己的思考，有独特的角度，是一篇非常成功的英语议论文。下面给大家展示一下这篇高中英语作文：

In order to engage my audience, I need something more tangible and interesting, something that could create empathy regardless of cultural differences. That object, as I came to realize much later, is, in fact, my life.

（中国标志性事物不能反映中国文化，因为国外人不熟知。）

Through the lens of my life,.....Of course, these are biased answers. However, coming from my own perspective, they are more effective to reflect something quite interesting but often subtle about China and its culture, because even though my story is only one out of 1.4 billion, it has been shaped and modeled and polished just like that of other Chinese people by the same language, the same history, the same political system, the same education and
