【答案】Dear Sir or Madam,
I’m Li Hua, a senior three student from our school. Having read the Literary Association’s advertisement for editors, I can’t wait to submit my application for the post.
Born in an educated family, my parents introduced me to literature at a very young age. I read lots of the worldfamousandthe Chineseclassics, which help me broaden my horizons as well as develop my knowledge of literature. Besides, as an outgoing and warm-hearted girl, I do quite well in collaborating with others and working in groups. Furthermore, I won a prize for creative writing in a city-level competition last year.
I do hope this wonderful opportunity would be offered to me. Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
