示例回答1：
I've been with Lotadoe for over five years and Ive enjoyed working there. I learned a lot about software development and how to work effectively with my colleagues.
我在公司工作超过5年，我喜欢在这里工作。我学到了许多关于软件开发方面的知识和怎样高效与同事工作。
About two years ago, I began getting interested in other aspects of design and started learning about new ways that the field is creating and developing new designs. I completed training that qualifies me to oversee other types of projects than the ones I work on now at Lotadoe. Thats why Im now looking for a company that will allow me to more fully utilize my new skills and where I can take on new challenges. What I see in this position is also the opportunity for growth and advancement. I think that my current skills and abilities are a good match with the current needs of this company.
大约两年前，我开始越来越感兴趣设计的其他方面，并开始了解该领域新的创造和发展的设计方法。我完成了培训，并取得了监督其他类型的项目的资格。这就是为什么我现在找一个可以让我更充分地利用我的新技能，在那里我可以接受新的挑战的公司的理由。我在这个位置上看到的是成长和进步的机会。我觉得我目前的技能和能力都与这家公司目前的需求相匹配。
