The aim of a letter of application(求职信) is to help you to 'sell' yourself. It should state【21】the job you want, and should tell what your abilities are and what you have【22】. It should be simple, human, personal and brief without【23】out any necessary facts. In writing a letter of application, keep in【24】that the things a possible employer is most【25】to want to know about are your qualifications(条件), your achievements(成绩) and your aims. The opening paragraph is perhaps the most important part.【26】the first few sentences fail to【27】the reader's attention, the rest of the letter may not be【28】at all. Try to key your opening remarks to the needs or interests of the employer not【29】your own need or desires. For example, instead of beginning with 'I saw your【30】in today's newspaper,' you might say 'I have made a careful【31】of your advertising during the past six months.' or 'I have made a survey(调查) in my neighborhood to find out how many housewives【32】your product and why they like it.' Try not to look ordinary. Be clear【33】the kind of job for which you are now【34】. College graduates looking for their first positions often ask, 'What can I【35】in a letter? Employers want experience--which, naturally, no【36】has.' The answer is that everything you have ever done is【37】 It is important to write a good strong closing for your letter.【38】a specific request for an interview or give the possible employer something certain to do or expect. An excellent【39】is to enclose(内附) a stamped, self- addressed envelope with your letter. That makes it【40】for a possible employer to get in touch with you. (61)
