问题     The challenge of writing a powerful cover letter (附信) can lead job candidates to search endlessly for advice, but be careful. While you likely will find some valuable advice, you may come across a few tips that could mislead you.
    "You need a lengthy cover letter." This probably is one of the "bad cover letter tips." Think about it: hiring managers have piles of resumes and cover letters to review. If yours is longer than the rest, it might not get read at all. Aim to get all of your points across in three brief paragraphs: a clear introduction that lets employers know which job you are applying for and why you are interested in the position; a paragraph that includes a few specific examples of how you have excelled (擅长) in past roles that are relevant to the open position; and a concluding paragraph that tells employers how you will benefit their company and requests a future meeting.
    "Your cover letter is less important than your resume." Some hiring managers shove(随手扔) cover letters to the side, but most do not. Because you never know what type of hiring manager you are dealing with, it is best to submit a nice cover letter. While some employers place less emphasis on cover letters, others decide who to interview based on them. Remember that the point of a cover letter is to tell employers something that makes them want to meet you.
Why shouldn’t you write a lengthy cover letter?

选项 A、Hiring managers may not read it at all.
B、Well-written cover letters may be read first.
C、It is difficult to write a good long cover letter.
D、You are unable to express your points clearly.

答案A

解析 根据短文第二段第四句,“如果你的求职信比其他所有人的都长,经理根本没有时间读完”可知,招聘经理需要阅读大量的求职信件及简历,因此没有足够的时间阅读一封长篇大论的求职信。故选A。
