Question

　 The purpose of a letter of application is to help you to “sell” yourself. It should state 38 the job you want, and should tell what your abilities are and what you have 39　 . It should be simple, human, personal and brief without　 40　 out any necessary fact.

　　　 In writing a letter of application, keep in　 41　 that the things a possible employer is most 42　 to want to know about are your qualifications（条件）, your achievements and your aims. The opening paragraph is perhaps the most important part.　43　 the first few sentences fail to　 44　 the reader’s attention, the rest of the letter may not be　 45　 at all. Try to key your opening remarks to the needs or interests of the employer not　 46　 your own need or desires. For example, instead of beginning with “I saw your　 47　 in today's paper. ”you might say“I have made a careful　 48　 of your advertising during the past six months” or “I have made a survey in my neighbourhood to find out how many housewives　 49　 your product and why they like it.”

　　 Try to　 50　 generalities. Be clear about the kind of job for which you are now　 51　. College graduates looking for their first positions often ask“ What can I　 52　 in a letter? Employers want experience, which, naturally, no　 53　 has. ”The answer is that everything you have ever done is　 54　.

　　 It is important to write a good strong closing for your letter.　55　 a specific request for an interview or give the possible employer something definite to do or expect. An excellent　56　 is to enclose（内附）a stamped, self - addressed envelope with your letter. That makes it　 57　 for a possible employer to get in touch with you.
