Dear Sir or Madam, I saw the wanted ads in China Daily on September 5th, 2014, and I know that you need a tour guide in Beijing. I’d like to apply for that position. My name is Wang Yan. I was born in 1998. I am studying in Beijing No.1 Vocational School now. I’m learning English to become a tour guide. I like traveling a lot. I was born in Beijing and I know nearly every place of interest in Beijing. I love talking with people and telling stories about what happened in Chinese history. I know a lot about the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven, and Wangfujing Street. Last summer holiday, I went to a small village with my mom. I saw some boys and girls of my age. They were poor and had no money to go to school. I want a part-time job during the holiday and I’ll use my pay to buy some books for those poor children. My English is good, too. I can talk freely with my American friends and I know a lot about the cultural differences between China and Western countries. If I get the job, I’m going to work hard for the company. Thank you very much.
