尊敬的公司领导：

您好!

衷心地感谢您在百忙之中垂阅此信，为一位满腔热情的大学生开启了一扇希望之门!怀着对贵公司积极进取精神的敬慕和对美好未来的憧憬，谨向贵公司发出这封求职信，请允许我毛遂自荐。您的信任就是我的动力!

我叫___

经过大学四年锤炼，在面对未来事业的选择时，我对自己有了更清醒的认识,由于我在大学中锻练了较好的学习能力,加上“努力做到最好”的天性使然,四年中,我在班级的考试中均较优秀。在大学四年中，我也练就了较好的我实验操做技能，能够独立操做紫外可见分光光度计、核磁共振仪、高效液相色谱仪、气相色谱仪、气相色谱与质谱联机等仪器。但我并没有满足，因为我知道，在大学是学习与积累的过程，为了更好适应日后的工作，还不断地充实自己。

但是，我知道，一切的辉煌与失败早已成为过去，我将要面对的是更具挑战的未来。听闻贵校招聘食品科学的教师，我冒昧地投出自己的求职简历，四年的寒窗苦读给了我扎实的理论知识、实验操做技能及表达能力，我虽然只是一个普通的本科毕业生，但大学四年教会了我什么叫“学无止境”，我相信，在我不断努力刻苦的学习中，我一定能够胜任这份高尚的职业，通过我的言传身教，定会为祖国培养环保方面的专业人才。一直坚信“天道酬勤”，我的人生信条是“人生在勤，不索何获”。给我一次机会，我会尽职尽责。

一个人惟有把所擅长的投入到社会中才能使自我价值得以实现。别人不愿做的，我会义不容辞的做好;别人能做到的，我会尽最大努力做到更好!发挥自身优势，我愿与贵单位同事携手共进，共创辉煌!

感谢您在百忙之中读完我的求职简历，诚祝事业蒸蒸日上!

此致

敬礼!

[大学生开学英语自我介绍

各位尊敬的考官：

大家下午好!很荣幸能在这里面试，让我有向各位考官学习与交流的机会，现将自己的情况简要介绍一下：(这句话其实是可有可无的，不过一般在群面的时候还是很有必要用到的)

我叫XXX，来自于中国最美的乡村—婺源(有必要用几个词修饰下自己的家乡)。性格比较温和、谦虚、认真细致、踏实、吃苦耐劳、有较强的责任心和社会适应能力(这里可以用一些修饰性的词语对自己的性格做一个简单的介绍，当然是好的方面啦)。即将于2014年7月毕业于江西工业职业技术学院，作为一名电子商务专业的大学生，我更喜欢平面设计方面的内容，在大学三年的学习生活中，我对平面这一领域的相关知识有了一定的掌握，同时具有实际的操作能力与技术(这里就是为了体现自己的专业技能以及期望的职业发展方向了)。

为了使在校所学的知识更好地应用到实际生活中，于20xx年12月有幸来北京中科院计算机所培训中心，通过三个月的实践训练，全面系统地学习了平面方面的专业知识与技能，能够应用平面设计的相关软件(Photoshop图像处理软件、Illustrator与CoreIdRAW矢量绘图软件、InDesigin与Pagemaker排版软件)做基本的图像处理、海报、企业宣传册等，能够将所学知识真正应用到实际生活中。(主要交代你之前的实习经验以及技能运用方面的状况，最好用一些具体的数据来表达)

在投身于社会之际，为了找到符合自己专业和兴趣的工作,更好地适应社会,我希望自己能够做到一种被别人需要的一种状态，至于做什么，就是在实践中，不断的学习、不断的锻炼.因此，我希望加入贵单位，如果能够成为公司的一份子，我相信我一定在自己的岗位上尽职尽责、踏踏实实地贡献之集的一份力量，与公司共同促进、发展。(这段话其实是有缺陷的，虽然看上去很通顺自然，但是整体上给人一种夸夸其谈的感觉，编者的主张就是：直接说出你将来的发展方向，以及你的职业规划，3-5年的规划等，这样会切实的多，也会让面试官觉得你是一个脚踏实地的人)

“世界之大，人才济济”。我承认自己还不是最优秀的人才，但是我希望之集是此岗位最合适的人选，希望有幸能够被贵公司领导予以特别考虑。今后我在好的方面再接再厉，不足之处有所改善。我的介绍到此结束。谢谢!

American eating is funny. They eat almost everything with a fork, and it appears that holding a knife in ones right hand longer than a few seconds is considered to be against good table manners.

The system is that if it is absolutely necessary to use a knife, people take the fork in their left hand, and cut off a piece of meat or whatever it is in the normal manner. Then they put the knife down, transfer the fork to their right hand, and only then do they transport the food to their mouth. This is clearly ludicrous(滑稽可笑), but it is considered good manners.

There are several results of this system. First, if it is not absolutely necessary to use a knife, Americans dont use one, because obviously this greatly complicates(使复杂化) things, and you will therefore see them trying to cut things like potatoes, fish and even bacon(熏猪肉) with a fork. Second, towards the end of a course, since only one implement(器具) is being used, food has to bo chased around the plate with the fork - and for the last mouthful the thumb has to be used to keep the food in place, although one is not supposed to do this.

Third, tables are generally laid with one knife and two forks, the outside fork being for the salad. There is no need for foreign visitors to follow the American system and try to eat the salad with only a fork, but if you do use your knife, remerber to save it for the meat course. Even desserts(甜食) (except ice cream) are eaten with a fork if at all possible, and the spoon you see by your dessert is meant to be for coffee (but if you use it for your dessert no one will say anything).

The international workers day, also known as May day, is celebrated on the first day on May. There are more than eighty countries celebrate this festival since 1889. People may know that the workers day is about having a rest on that day, but most of them dont know how this day comes from and the story behind it.

In the late of 18 century, the cruel capitalists in order to make more money, they demanded their employers to work all day, but only paid them with low salaries. In America, the workers had to work at least 14 hours a day, sometimes, they even worked as long as 18 hours. Due to the unfair payment, the works knew that they had to stand up and fight for their rights, or all of them will die young. Then the workers started to go on strike, demanded that the reasonable working hours should be 8 hours a day. However, the capitalists did not pay attention to the workers demand. The workers had to fight for their rights for themselves. On may 1st, 1886, the United States and Canadas worker unions got together to start the biggest strike. After that day, the law had passed the rules that the workers working hours would be 8 hours per day. This strike had made a different. The worker did not need to suffer from the long working hours with low payment.

The international workers day aims to memorize the spirit of brave and show our honor to the former workers. Because they had make great contribution to todays happiness.

The qingming (Pure Brightness) Festival is one of the 24 seasonal division points in China, falling on April 4-6 each year. After the festival, the temperature will rise up and rainfall increases. It is the high time for spring plowing and sowing. But the qingming Festival is not only a seasonal point to guide farm work, it is more a festival of commemoration.

The qingming Festival sees a combination of sadness and happiness.

This is the most important day of sacrifice. Both the Han and minority ethnic groups at this time offer sacrifices to their ancestors and sweep the tombs of the diseased. Also, they will not cook on this day and only cold food is served.

The Hanshi (Cold Food) Festival was usually one day before the qingming Festival. As our ancestors often extended the day to the qingming, they were later combined.

On each qingming Festival, all cemeteries are crowded with people who came to sweep tombs and offer sacrifices. Traffic on the way to the cemeteries becomes extremely jammed. The customs have been greatly simplified today. After slightly sweeping the tombs, people offer food, flowers and favorites of the dead, then burn incense and paper money and bow before the memorial tablet.

In contrast to the sadness of the tomb sweepers, people also enjoy hope of Spring on this day. The qingming Festival is a time when the sun shines brightly, the trees and grass become green and nature is again lively. Since ancient times, people have followed the custom of Spring outings. At this time tourists are everywhere.

People love to fly kites during the qingming Festival. Kite flying is actually not limited to the qingming Festival. Its uniqueness lies in that people fly kites not during the day, but also at night. A string of little lanterns tied onto the kite or the thread look like shining stars, and therefore, are called "gods lanterns."

The qingming Festival is also a time to plant trees, for the survival rate of saplings is high and trees grow fast later. In the past, the qingming Festival was called "Arbor Day". But since 1979, "Arbor Day" was settled as March 12 according to the Gregorian calendar.
