第三部分阅读理解（共25分）

A

I am a student at Leeds University, completing a degree in history. As a member of the Student Union, I am actively involved in the day-to-day running of student life. The Student Union takes responsibility for organizing student events such as concerts and sports days, as well as fund-raising activities. I play a large part in organizing these events. These responsibilities test my leadership as well as my organizational skills.

For many years I have been interested in journalism. While I was at school, I helped to run the school magazine, and in my first year at university I often contributed articles to the Student Magazine, “Juice”. Running and writing a magazine requires the ability to produce interesting, topical articles while working under pressure and meeting tight deadlines. The success of the school magazine shows that I managed to develop these abilities at a high standard.

In my free time I enjoy watching films. I am a member of a local community film club and helped organize a short film festival last year. I contributed my own short video about student life to the festival, which was very well received.

I believe I have made a positive contribution to university life, as well as to the local community. I am confident and competitive, but also a good team worker. My natural enthusiasm (热情) has often helped me inspire others and achieve excellent results. You have every reason to believe that I am able to do the job well.
