The body of your cover letter lets the employer know what position you are applying for, why the employer should select you for an interview, and how you will follow-up.

First Paragraph （开篇明义，讲明写信的目的，包括你想申请的职位和怎样得知这个求职信息）
The first paragraph of your letter should include information on why you are writing. Mention the position you are applying for and where you found the job listing. Include the name of a mutual contact, if you have one.

Middle Paragraph(s)（说明你为什么适合这份工作，展示你相应的技能和经验，但是不能只是重复你的简历上的内容）
The next section of your cover letter should describe what you have to offer the employer. Mention specifically how your qualifications match the job you are applying for. Remember, you are interpreting your resume, not repeating it.

Final Paragraph （礼貌地表达感谢以及写明后续的处理方式）
Conclude your cover letter by thanking the employer for considering you for the position. Include information on how you will follow-up.
