Section B

　　Passage 1

　　Born and raised in central Ohio, I am a country girl through and through. (我是個地道的鄉下丫頭。

) I am currently studying to become a physical therapist, a career path that marked great achievement for me. At Ohio State University, admission into the physical therapist program is intensely competitive. (錄取競爭很激烈。)I made it pass for applying for the program the first year, but it was turned down for admission(但是未被錄取) I was crashed (我崩潰了)，because for years I have been determined to become a physical therapist. I received advice from friends and relatives about changing my major and finding another course for my life (我的親戚朋友們奉勸我改變專業，選擇另外的人生道路). I just could not do it. I knew I could not be as happy in another profession. So I still for myself and begin to work seriously for another year and reapplied. Happily I received notice of my admission. Later, I found out that less than 50% of the applicants had been offered positions that year. Now in the first two years of professional training, I could not be happier with my decision not to give up my dream. My father told me that if I want it badly enough, I would get in. Well, Daddy, I wanted it, so there.(我想得到，所以就得到了。) After graduation, I went to travel to another country, possibly a Latin American country and work in a children’s hospitals for a year or two. So many of the children there are physically handicapped but most hospitals don’t have the funding to hire trained staff to care for them properly (但是醫院里面沒有錢雇傭受過訓練的醫生給這些殘疾兒童恰當的治療). I would like to change that somehow.
