一、主题下的语篇训练

A
(2023.My Ph.D.adviser informed me I had failed my qualifying exam on
my third attempt,which meant dismissal from the program.How was it possible
that one exam -one hour of my life -could define me as unfit to be a
scientist?
I wasn't sure what to expect when I started my Ph.D.program.I struggled with
my classes during my first year,spending countless hours studying in the library.I
ended that year with increased confidence.But soon my confidence went when I
made my first attempt at the qualifying exam.I had switched research project five
months earlier,after my first adviser left the university,so I wasn't so confident
going into the exam.Besides,I had never taken an oral exam before,so the
experience was terrifying.
Once it was over,my committee told me I'd conditionally passed,which
meant I had to take more time to study and prepare to talk about the topic
further.I was shaken but still hopeful.But when I retook the exam,I failed
again.That's when I was told I'd have one more chance.
For the next five months.I asked my committee chairs for guidance and
practiced answering oral questions.I even stopped doing lab work to focus on my
exam preparations.I was all in.
When the exam was over,I left the room feeling a mix of fear and relief.But
those feelings changed to disappointment the next day after I learned I'd failed.I
speak Spanish at home,but I have difficulty translating even the simplest
scientific concepts into Spanish.This hampered (my ability to comfortably speak
the expected"language of science".
My adviser requested to reinstate me to the Ph.D.program,and I'm now
back to working on my doctorate.I still have a little voice in the back of my head
that I'm not good enough.But I try to stop it by surrounding myself with
professors who support me and by staying focused on developing into the great
scientist I know I can be.I am much more than that one-hour exam.
