此人学习目的有独到之处。别人为了挣钱，而他是为了教书育人。说来颇成理。这篇文章的作者主要从事计算机软件的基础开发工作，在大部分人将精力放在具体应用中的时候，他对于基础科学研究和知识传播的兴趣显得颇为与众不同，这一点可以作为他的特色加以突出。
I would like to build on my solid education and experience as an engineer for a Ph.D. degree in computer science at a distinguished university. I wish in particular to be trained at an advanced level in software systems, database systems, applied-AI and knowledge-based systems. My ultimate goal is to become a professor teaching computer science at a Chinese university. I believe that advanced training in a quality graduate program will help me realize my goal.
Having worked in both academia and industries, I have narrowed down my career interest to teaching and researching, although I can also appreciate the value of other types of career. I feel that, by teaching and researching at an advanced level within the context of a university, I can make the most contribution to the progress of science and technology in my country. This is because, to a large developing country like China, the propagation of scientific and technological knowledge is at least as important as the development of cutting-edge expertise. Enough people are already devoted to mastering the state-of-the-art in computer science, but not nearly enough people are prepared to spend their life training new generations to be better than they are.
As a computer professional, I am versed in a full range of computer knowledge and skills. As a graduate student, I devoted the better part of my time to doing research on data consistency, a topic that is fundamental not only to the database itself but also to data mining. In my Master's thesis, I proposed, under the most commonly used division of schemes, a new computing method that strikes the best balance to date between cost and computation performance. In the capacity of a system analyst and project engineer, I have worked with all kinds of software applications, and created a lot of my own as well. I once provided a model for the routine on form, which dominates daily operations in many offices. Some of my work already stands on forefront of the technological progress in China. Some time ago, I met the President of the New Technology Development Company affiliated with Beijing University, one of China's most distinguished higher-learning institution. He told me that about their new product, a program of textual search within whole context, which can identify text titles and text intelligently. Much to my surprise, I found that the program was virtually the same as the form-based handling system. If I had done a proper job in disseminating what I had done, there would be this repetition of work.
I have developed some insights about the WWW technology, which is now part of the normal office environment. Its widespread use has generated a lot of demands for change in the format of both the web server and the web browser. One answer to some of the demands is being met by the adoption of the intranet technology. With it, the architecture of CGI, +SQL DB+WEB SERVER has become a popular topic. I tried my hand in this area several years ago, and would dearly love to enhance my expertise.
The hands-on experience in so many different areas has endowed me with strong sensitivity to changes and progress in computer science, particularly to problems that arise out of routine work. I am known among my colleagues for my ability to ask the right questions at the right moment,(这句话可以作为写作时的参考。) especially when dealing with DB, query tools, office models and the Internet. With further training, I hope to be able to combine ANN or other AIs with DB for information handling. I am glad to say that my competence at independent research will serve me well as I try to put my ideas into practice.
In view of the above, I would greatly appreciate it if you could accept me into your program and offer me whatever financial you might be able to.(这是修改后的说法，与原文相比口气就要和缓得多。) By giving me an opportunity to study under your seasoned guidance, you will produce not only another computer scientist but also a computer scientist who will spawn many other computer scientists.
