8、. 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
9、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 readers attention, the rest of the letter may not be (28) at all. Try to key your opening remarks to the needs or inter
10、ests of the employer not (29) your own need or desires. For example, instead of beginning with “I saw your (30) in todays 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 housew
11、ives (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
12、everything you have ever done is (37) ft 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. Th

It was nearly three hundred years old. Although we were six children, and a mother and a father, we were not by any means alo
16、ne in the house. We were sharing it with big families of mice and spiders(蜘蛛). There were great- grandparents, grandparents, fathers and mothers, and hundreds of mouse and spider children.My mother would never let us kill a spider, not even a hairy old grandfather. “If you want to live and rich,“ sh
17、e used to say, “let a spider run alive.“ And so the spiders, our enemies, were beaten and kicked but never killed. But she had no such dealing with the mice.One of our problems was that my mother hated cats; and we never owned a single cat. We kept dogs, often two or three at the same time, but very
18、 few dogs can move fast enough to catch a lively young mouse. Every night we set a dozen mousetraps(捕鼠器), each with a small piece of cheese. Sometimes the cheese disappeared, but the mice usually seemed too wise to go near the traps. We seldom caught anything.My mother herself had far better luck. H
19、er arms and hands moved as fast as any cats paws. Often, when she was scrubbing or polishing a floor on her hands and knees, some foolish little grey fellow would try to run past her. He never got very far. Quick as lightning her hard hands would smack(用掌击) together-and there on the floor would be o
20、ne dead mouse. “Oh, you were a proud one,“ she would say to it then.One day my father decided to clean out the water tank, which stood on four iron legs in a corner upstairs. He was soon sorry that he had started the job. In the mud at the bottom of the tank, there were sixteen of the little grey fe

24、they have only visited a place once, they will be able to find it again years later. I am one of those unfortunate people who have an extremely poor sense of direction and I may have visited a place time after time, but I still manage to get lost on my way there.When I was a teenager, I was so shy t
25、hat I never dared ask complete strangers the way and so I used to wander round in circles and hope that some miraculous (奇迹的) chance would bring me to the spot I was heading for.A lot of people do not like to admit that they do not know their hometown and will insist on telling you the way even if t
26、hey do not know it; others, who are anxious to prove that they know their home town very well, will give you a long list of directions which you cannot possibly hope to remember; and you finally find that you are going in the opposite direction to that in which you should be going.If anyone ever ask
27、s me the way somewhere, I always tell them that I am a stranger to the town in order to avoid causing trouble, but even this can have unpleasant results.I was once on my way to work when I was stopped by a man who asked me if I would di- rect him to the Sunlight Building. Without hesitation, I gave
28、my usual reply, but I had only walked on a few steps when I realized that he had asked for directions to my office building. However, at this point, I decided it was too late to turn back and search him out of the crowd behind me as I had and appointment to keep at the office with a new client and I

33、ught of that, I felt very sad. When the final day came, I ran to a corner and sat alone, trying not to let others see my tears. Suddenly I felt a hand patting me on the shoulder. I looked up, and saw my grandpa. “It isnt easy, is it, my grandson?“ he said in a very low voice, sitting down beside me.
34、 I nodded through my tears, without a word. We sat silently for a long time. Then he said, “Good-by is such a sad word that it seems too cold for us to use. We must try to avoid it.“Then we walked slowly in the garden, hand in hand, to have a last look at each rock, each tree, each flower. We sat fo
35、r a while by the small pond which was a favorite place of my grandpas. “What do you see here, Tommy?“ asked the old man. I looked at the water, not knowing what to say, and then replied, “I see something soft and beautiful, Grandpa.“ He pulled me close to him and said, “It isnt the pond or the trees
36、 or the flowers that are beautiful.
