Special acknowledgements to our parents and to our relatives, for helping us in
doing this work and living happily, in more ways than one Also special thanks to
our teacher and our old friend John M. Holmes, who helped us as well as many
other Uighur students in studying English and provided us with good materials and
valuable advice. Thanks to our old friends Todd Avera, Alim Kasim, Kahar Turdi
and Abdumijit Mohammed, who gave us some valuable advice and spent countless
hours in examining and revising this book and checking for mistakes. Thanks also to
our linguist, the late Professor Halik Niyaz, and to his wife Professor Muhabbat
Kasim, who provided special advice in consolidating the grammatical terms and the
definitions. We also want to acknowledge the help of Halide, Aliye, Risalet, Gulshan,
and Gulnar in the libraries of both Xinjiang Normal University and Xinjiang
University, who provided us with many good books and better environment
whenever we needed, and to the help of Mr. Alim Ahed, the founder and manager of
Uighursoft, who provided us with updated software. Finally, many thanks to our
editor, Mr. Yalkun Abdusalam, who, because he was on the ball, made our work a
piece of cake, and to all of our classmates and friends who have encouraged and
supported us through this project.

Dear Adil,

I was told that you have a plan to study in the USA. I am very glad to hear that. In order for
our people to have a better future, we need to have many ambitious young people like you. In
order to let the world know our existence, we need many highly educated people who can
compete in various international stages. I hope you will show continuous efforts until you
achieve your goal.
Enclosed you find the copies of Petersons Guides on Biology and a simplified map of the
USA. I hope these materials will be useful for you in finding schools that you are looking for
in the USA. Please share these materials with as many other Uighur people as possible, and
let our other young Uighur brothers and sisters know this service if they are ambitious enough
to study abroad.
To enroll to a graduate school in the USA, three major steps need to be taken: (1) Qualify in
TOEFL and GRE; (2) Write letters to as many schools as possible asking for Application
Forms and for other related information; (3) Apply (fill out Application Forms and send them
to the school that you intend to enroll with required application fee) to several schools. The
materials that I am sending you will" help you to find schools that are proper for you. When
you write your first letter to a school, your letter should be very brief without containing any
personal information. Because this letter is just for getting Application Forms, and the person

who reads it is only the graduate secretary of individualdepartment. The decision on your
admission will be made by the university's Admissions Office only after you send your
complete Application Forms. The copy of Peterson's Guides that I sent you contain, among
other things, the name and the address of the person to whom you should send your first
letter. For your convenience, I wrote a sample letter for you at the end of this letter.
When you start to apply to schools, a group of Uighur students here in the USA can give you
further assistance. One of our services is to pay the Application Fees up to two schools per
person. In order to get this service, you must meet the application requirements in TOEFL and
GRE (if applicable). When you meet the qualifications in these exams, please send me the
following: (a) Copies of your TOEFL and GRE (if applicable) scores, (b) Names of the
department and university you applied, (c) Addresses of the school offices to which the
Application Fees should be sent. After receiving the above information, I will arrange to have
your application fees paid up to two schools to which you have applied. Please let us know if
you need any other help.
I wish you good luck.
