Dear Mr. Jiang87 Taiyuan Road
Riverside City,
China
September 15,2005I am writing to apply for a position at Student Post,
which I saw advertised in the school newsletter last
week. I would be interested in the role of reporter
for community events. I enclose a copy of my CV.
I am 17 years old and I am in my second year at No.
5 Senior High Scholl. I would like to work for you
because I am very interested in journalism. I would
also like to learn more about things that are going on
in the city as I feel that it is important to know
about the city we live in.I am a hard-working and committed person. I have
participated for the last three years in a voluntary
programme,Community Links,visiting elderly people
in my local area. I feel that I can get on well with
people from different backgrounds, since I have
co-operated with lots of different people on many
projects for community events.
I think I would be a good journalist due to my language
skills. I have always been a good writer. Last year I
won the second prize at our District Writing
Competition . In addition, I am also a keen
photographer,which might be useful for some of the
articles.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours sincerely,
Li Meiling

A song If you could read my mind love,
What a tale my thoughts could tell,
Just like an old time movie,
‘bout a ghost from a wishing well,
In a castle dark or a fortress strong,
With chains upon my feet.
You know that ghost is me,
And I will never be set free,
As long as I’m a ghost that you can’t see.
If I could read your mind love,
What a tale your thoughts could tell.
Just like a paperback novel,
The kind the drugstores sell.
When you reach the part where the heartache
comes,
The hero would be me.
But heroes often fall,
And you won’t read that book again,
Because the ending’s just too hard to take.
I’d walk away like a movie star,
Who gets burned in a three way script,
Enter number two,
A movie queen to play the scene,
Of bringing all the good things out in me.
But for now love,let’s be real.
I never thought I could feel this way.
And I’ve got to say that I just don’t get it
I don’t know where we went wrong,
But the feeling’s gone.
And I just can’t get it back.
If you read my mind love,
What a tale my thoughts could tell,
Just like an old time movie,
‘Bout a ghost from a wishing well,
In a castle dark or a fortress strong,
With chains upon my feet.
But stories always end,
And if you read between the lines,
You’ll know that I’m just trying to understand,
The feelings that you lack.
I never thought I could feel this way
And I’ve got to say that I just don’t get it
But the feeling’s gone,
And I just can’t get it back.
