Answer

Dear Sir/Madam,

Knowing that a speech contest whose topic is Approach to China will be held in our school next month and that some competitors are in need, I am writing to apply for being one of them.

Compared with others, I hold the view that I have good reasons to recommend myself. First, having learned English for more than ten years, I can speak English fluently. Moreover, as for the history and development of China, not only am I familiar with it but also I am willing to express pride to our beloved motherland. More importantly, I have some similar experience as a speech contestant, so I know how to perform well in the competition.

I am sure I’ll be qualified to be a contestant. I would appreciate it if you could give me the chance.

Yours sincerely

Li Hua
