J: I'd be glad to tell you what I think. G: If you don't think it's any good, please say so. I really want to get this job. J: It looks fine to me. But I have one suggestion. G: Good! I'm interested in your advice. J: If I were you I'd change the beginning. You should write about your education first. G: Good idea, Jack. What do you think about the second part? J: Now that you've asked me, I think it's too short. You should include much more information about your work experience. G: You're right. I'll change it. How do you feel about the last part of the letter? J: Very good. But, unless I miss my guess, you should say something about your family, too. G: I agree. I appreciate your helping6 me, Jack. Do you think the end is all right? J: Oh, yes, George. But personally I believe a business letter should end with "Very truly yours", not "Sincerely". G: I guess I'd better tear up the letter and start over again. J: Oh, don't do that, George! Just make the few changes I suggested, and your letter will be perfect!
