Dear Sir:
Your advertiment in this morning’s Beijing Daily for a sales manager prompts me to offer you my qualifications for this position. Becau your requirements cloly parallel my working experience.
As the enclod resume indicates, I have had five years’experience in marketing. I have turned in an above-average sales record for the past five years.
I’m quite happy in my prent work, but foreign trade in your company sounds more appealing. I would like to have more promotion. Regarding salary, I would leave that to you, my prent salary is 6000 Y uan RMB per month.
I’ll be glad to have an interview at your convenience, and can furnish references if desired.
Yours truly’

Dear Mr. Levin:
Edith Winters informs me of an opening in your cretarial staff, a position for which I should very much like to become a candidate.
I understand you need a legal cretary with a rapid stenographic skill and the ability to handle a large volume of correspondence. Along with my degree in legal stenographic from Foothill Junior College, I have four years of stenographic experience in retail dry goods and in insurance. My shorthand speed is 145 words per minute. On my prent job, I handle between forty and sixty letters everyday. Both at Foothill and on the job, I have had trained sufficient to prepare me to handle routine letters without supervision.
My prent job at Southwestern Life &Indemnity has been quite satisfactory, but, having taking my degree recently, I ek the further challenges and reward of a top-flight legal firm. Miss Winte r’s enthusiasm for her work assures me that I would like the job. I hope the enclod resume will help interest the firm in me.
I can be in Los Angles for an interview any afternoon convenient for you. May I look forward to speaking with you about the position you have available?
Yours sincerely
Laura Edmond

Dear Sir:
It is a pleasure to recommend to you Mr. Joph Marshall, who is my student, to be a candidate for a graduate scholarship in American Literature at your University.
Mr. Marshall finished his undergraduate study as an English major Last June. His ability to listening, speaking, reading and writing is very good. I have taught his American literature for two years. So I assure you that he was a top student in my class. In addition to this, he is interested in American literature and Chine literature particularly. Thus, he intends to study Comparative literature at your university.
He is only 20 years old, his hard-working and quick mind will be helpful for his future success. He has been regarded as a reliable, industrious and persistent student by many teachers.
If you would kindly offer him a scholarship at your university, you will be rewarded by his excellent academic ability and character.
Yours Sincerely,
