after we said"hello"to each other, he continued his work, paying no attention to me."what a stuck-up fellow,"i thought. i examined the room. it was not different in the fittings and furnishings from any other room i had seen. but it had been thoroughly cleaned by my new roommate, no doubt.

i looked at him. he was thin, short, and dark. his hair was like a bundle of straw. his dirty clothes and tired look were clearly signs of a long journey . his clothes were made of cheap cloth. the coat was too short and the trousers were too loose. and he wore a pair of rubber shoes , which were very unfashionable. he did not look like a smart senior student at all . "a yokel ,"i concluded.

the second time he spoke ,his accent told me that he was from the south"shall i help you to get your luggage from the office?"he asked.

I am a third year master major in automation at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, P.R.China.

With tremendous interest in Industrial Engineering, I am writing to apply for acceptance into your Ph.D.graduate program.In 1995, I entered the Nanjing University of Science & Technology (NUST) -- widely considered one of the China’s best engineering schools.

During the following undergraduate study, my academic records kept distinguished among the whole department.

I was granted First Class Prize every semester, and my overall GPA(89.5/100) ranked No.

1 among 113 students.

In 1999, I got the privilege to enter the graduate program waived of the admission test.

I selected the Shanghai Jiao Tong University to continue my study for its best reputation on Combinatorial Optimization and Network Schedu ling where my research interest lies.

At the period of my graduate study, my overall GPA(3.77/4.0) ranked top 5% in the department.

In the second semester, I became teacher assistant that is given to talented and matured students only.

This year, I won the Acer Scholarship as the one and only candidate in my department, which is the ultimate accolade for distinguished students endowed by my university.

Presently, I am preparing my graduation thesis and trying for the honor of Excellent Graduation Thesis.

Research experience and academic activity，When a sophomore, I joined the Association of AI Enthusiast and began to narrow down my interest for my future research.

In 1997, I participated in simulation tool development for the schedu ling system in Prof.

Wang’s lab.

With the tool of OpenGL and Matlab, I designed a simulation program for transportation schedu ling system.

It is now widely used by different research groups in NUST.

In 1998, I assumed and fulfilled a sewage analysis & dispose project for Nanjing sewage treatment plant.

This was my first practice to convert a laboratory idea to a commercial product.

In 1999, I joined the distinguished Professor Yu-Geng Xis research group aiming at Network flow problem solving and Heuristic algorithm research.

Soon I was engaged in the FuDan Gene Database Design.

My duty was to pick up the useful information among different kinds of gene matching format.

Through the comparison and analysis for many heuristic algorithms, I introduced an improved evolutionary algorithm -- Multi-population Genetic Algorithm.

By dividing a whole population into several sub-populations, this improved algorithm can effectively prevent GA from local convergence and promote various evolutionary orientations.

It proved more efficiently than SGA in experiments, too.

In the second semester, I joined the workshop-schedu ling research in Shanghai Heavy Duty Tyre plant.

The schedu ling was designed for the rubber-making process that covered not only discrete but also continuous circumstances.

To make a balance point between optimization quality and time cost, I proposed a Dynamic Layered Schedu ling method based on hybrid Petri Nets.

The practical application showed that the average makespan was shortened by a large scale.

I also publicized two papers in core journals with this idea.

Recently, I am doing research in the Composite Predict of the Electrical Power system assisted with the technology of Data Mining for Bao Steel.

I try to combine the Decision Tree with Receding Optimization to provide a new solution for the Composite Predictive Problem.

This project is now under construction.

Besides, In July 2000, I got the opportunity to give a lecture in English in Asia Control Conference (ASCC) which is one of the top-level conferences among the world in the area of control and automation.

In my senior year, I met Prof.

Xiao-Song Lin, a visiting professor of mathematics from University of California-Riverside, I learned graph theory from him for my network research.

These experiences all rapidly expanded my knowledge of English and the understanding of western culture.

I hope to study in depth .

In retrospect, I find myself standing on a solid basis in both theory and experience, which has prepared me for the Ph.D.program.

My future research interests include: Network Schedu ling Problem, Heuristic Algorithm research (especially in GA and Neural network), Supply chain network research, Hybrid system performance analysis with Petri nets and Data Mining.

Please give my application materials a serious consideration.

Thank you very much.

我的宠物狗My Dog

Ihave a lovely dog. He has white fur and four small paws. I love his ears best,because his ears are round and big. He always lies near my lap to sleep. He isfriendly and quiet. I never frighten him or pull his small tail. If he is hungry,he will bark at me. Usually, he eats dog food from a tin, but his favorite foodis meat. He always plays with stricks. I feed my dog every day and give himclean water. Usually, I wash his fur every day and he enjoys it very much. Ilove my dog very much. I think he is my good friend. I will look after himuntil the end.

我有一只可爱的狗。他有白色的毛和四只小爪子。我最喜欢他的耳朵，因为他的耳朵又大又圆。他总是靠着我的膝盖睡着了。他很友好也很安静。我从来不吓唬他或拉它的小尾巴。如果他饿了，他会向我吠。通常，他吃的狗粮是罐头食品，但他最喜欢的食物是肉。他总是和我开玩笑。我每天都喂他，给他一些干净的水。通常，我每天给他洗一次澡，他非常喜欢。我非常爱我的狗。我认为他是我的好朋友。我会一直照顾他。

When a dog follows its nose,it’s actually being led by thee key senses.Sight:a glimpse of the enemy saves them barking up the wrong tree.Sound:a bark can be a fierce threat,but it’s also how canines make their long distance calls.Smell:this tells a dog more than all the other senses put together.

Inside its nose are around two hundred million smell sensitive cells,forty times more than in humans.Through them the dog’s brain can pick up signals from one molecule of scent in a million.It gives the dog:a completely different picture of the world,based on what it smells,rather than what it sees.

Flowers are irrelevant to a dog.So their scent is meaningless.But food is a serious matter.What to us is an empty plate,is covered with the smell of chicken to a hungry dog.

This dog is my uncle gave me.

A pair of pointed little ears, sparkling little eyes, black and white body, round small tail, composed of a lovely puppy - handsome. Often stroll it, the other passers-by likens it into a cat. Because it is too small, too thin, and sometimes I want it to grow up, but uncle said: "It is a small dog, not too big.

It is time to eat, really picky. Only eat beef and chicken, dog food sometimes do not even look at a look. When sleeping is really different. Because it has an indispensable item before going to bed, thats what Im throwing plush toys. 1,2,3,4 ... ... 15, it still refused to stop, I continue to play with it until more than 20, it was rest. getting ready to sleep. And sleep is very strange time, often I liken it as a cat: because the cat is always a pattern of sleep, handsome is the case.

That sharp call, often makes me feel the buzzing ears. Sometimes the guest came in, it will be called, how to say it can not stop, it may be the dogs nature it! But its call, it is not the same ah! Really do not understand. It also has a poor side. I remember once: my mother and I went out to buy something, handsome with that eyes looked at me, I thought: it is too poor, why can not take him?

Handsome hands out to play, may be vigorously. Sometimes bite the tail to the tail, and sometimes happy to jump high, and sometimes ... ... really excited do not know how the good! To the downstairs quickly run up, two small ears vertical, hair with the wind fluttering. It can be run when the strange, and other dogs are running, and it is dancing run, run a few steps to look back at us, and then continue to run up. You have to meet, and must laugh!

This is my little pet - handsome, I really like it!

I have two good friends. Theyre Zhang Ping and Jim. Zhang Ping is 12. Jim is three years older than her. Hes 15.

Jim is heavier than Zhang Ping. Hes 60 kilograms. Jim is taller than her. Hes 162cm. Zhang Ping is a Chinese girl. She lives in Xinhui. Jim is a Canadian boy. He lives in Guangzhou now. Zhang Ping likes red. Her favorite sport is badminton.

Jim likes blue. His favorite sport is swimming. I like them very much.

I am . I was born in Changsha. I graduate from senior high school and major in English. I started learning English since I was 12 years old. My parents have a lot of American friends. That’s why I have no problem communicating with Americans or others by speaking English.

In my spare time, I like to do anything relating to English such as listening to English songs, watching English movies or TV programs, or even attending the activities held by some English clubs or institutes. I used to go abroad for a short- term English study. During that time, I learned a lot of daily life English and saw a lot of different things.

I think language is very interesting. I could express one substance by using different sounds. So I wish I could study and read more English literatures and enlarge my knowledge.

The Double Seventh Festival on the 7th day of the 7th lunarmonth is a traditional festival full of romance. It often goes into August in the Gregorian calendar.

This festival is in mid-summer when the weather is warm and the grass and trees reveal their luxuriousgreens. At night when the sky is dotted with stars and people can see the Milky Way spanning from the north to the south. On each bank of it is a bright star which see each other from afar. They are the Cowherd and Weaver Maid and about them there is a beautiful love story passed down from generation to generation.

Long long ago there was an honest and kind-hearted fellow named Niu Lang (Cowhand). His parents died when he was a child. Later he was driven out of his home by his sister-in-law. So he lived by himself herding cattle and farming. One day a fairy from heaven Zhi Nu (Weaver Maid) fell in love with him and came down secretly to earth and married him. The cowhandfarmed in the field and the Weaver Maid wove at home. They lived a happy life and gave birth to a boy and a girl. Unfortunately the God of Heaven soon found out the fact and ordered the Queen Mother of the Western Heavens to bring the Weaver Maid back.

With the help of celestial cattle the Cowhand flew to heaven with his son and daughter. At the time when he was about to catch up with his wife the Queen Mother took off one of her gold hairpins and made a stroke. One billowyriver appeared in front of the Cowhand. The Cowhand and Weaver Maid were separated on the two banks forever and could only feel their tears. Their loyaltyto love touched magpies so tens of thousands of magpies came to build a bridge for the Cowhand and Weaver Maid to meet each other. The Queen Mother was eventually moved and allowed them to meet each year on the 7th of the 7th lunar month. Hence their meeting date has been called "Qi Xi" (Double Seventh).

Scholars have shown the Double Seventh Festival originated from the Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD220). Historical documents from the Eastern Jin Dynasty (AD371-420) mention the festival while records from the Tang Dynasty (618-907) depict the grand evening banquetof Emperor Taizong and his concubines. By the Song (960-1279) and Yuan (1279-1368) dynasties special articles for the "Qi Xi" were seen being sold on markets in the capital. The bustling markets demonstrated the significance of the festival.

Today some traditional customs are still observed in ruralareas of China but have been weakened or diluted in urban cities. However the legend of the Cowhand and Weaver Maidhas taken root in the hearts of the people. In recent years in particular urban youths have celebrated it as Valentines Day in China. As a result owners of flower shops bars and stores are full of joy as they sell more commodities for love.
