You have just completed your 300-page autobiography. Please submit Page 217. (UPenn, 2009)

这篇作文的目的是看学生对自己的人生有没有什么规划。任何大学都希望自己的学生和校友成功，而有雄心有计划的人成功的可能性会更高一些。这个题目并不难写，如果你想当导演，第217页可能是写你在奥斯卡奖颁奖仪式上焦急地等待结果；如果你想从政，第217页可能是写到你作为新科参议员视察飓风袭击后的灾区的情景。写什么都可以，你的想象力是唯一的障碍。如果你说我不知道我想做什么(这也常见)，那就编一个，没人会找你算账的。最后别忘记提到你在宾大接受的教育在你成功中起到的作用，这样你就给大学一个录取你的好理由。

Using the quotation below as a jumping off point, tell us about an event or experience that helped you define one of your values or changed how you approach the world.     "Some questions cannot be answered./ They become familiar weights in the hand,/ Round stones pulled from the pocket, unyielding and cool."
