The purpose of a letter of application is to help you to “sell” yourself. It should state　 36　 the job you want, and should tell what your abilities are and what you have　 37　 . It should be simple, human, personal and brief without　 38　 out any necessary fact.

　　In writing a letter of application, keep in　 39　 that the things a possible employer is most　

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

　　Try to　 48　 generalities. Be clear about the kind of job for which you are now　 49　. College graduates looking for their first positions often ask“ What can I　 50　 in a letter? Employers want experience, which, naturally, no　 51　 has. ”The answer is that everything you have ever done is　 52　.

　　It is important to write a good strong closing for your letter.　53　 a specific request for an interview or give the possible employer something definite to do or expect. An excellent　54　 is to enclose（内附）a stamped, self - addressed envelope with your letter. That makes it　 55　 for a possible employer to get in touch with you.
