"How did you write your advertisement?" asked one of the listeners, a merchant.
"Here it is," said the man, taking out of his pocket a slip cut from a newspaper. The other man took it and read, "Lost from the City Church last Sunday evening, a black silk umbrella. The gentleman who finds it will receive ten shillings on leaving it at No. 10 Broad Street."
"Now," said the merchant, "I often advertise, and find that it pays me well. But the way in which an advertisement is expressed is of great importance. Let us try for your umbrella again, and if it fails, I'll buy you a new one." The merchant then took a slip of paper out of his pocket and wrote: "If the man who was seen to take an umbrella from the City Church last Sunday evening doesn't wish to get into trouble, he will return the umbrella to No. 10 Broad Street. He is well known." This appeared in the paper, and on the following morning, the man was astonished when he opened the front door. In the doorway lay at least twelve umbrellas of all sizes and colors that had been thrown in, and his own was among the number. Many of them had notes, fastened to them saying that they had been taken by mistake, and begging the loser not to say anything about the matter.

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.
