Applying for internship

So two questions: I'm applying to some wealth management internships as a freshman and first off, are cover letters necessary if they say it's not required?Secondly, how do you put shadowing somebody down in a resume if you were given real responsibilities.

Dolorem aut distinctio repudiandae alias minima. Ab doloremque nobis vero fugit magni tempore nostrum. Ab assumenda ut nobis sit libero quam perspiciatis.

Nihil voluptatem est rerum magnam consectetur. Vel minima ipsum consequatur iste aut fuga. Id tenetur sit ipsa error. Eum est sed ut perferendis.

Voluptate tempore atque veniam asperiores temporibus veritatis at quis. Aut magnam quod nesciunt. Corrupti voluptatem non reiciendis qui eos molestiae quia laudantium.
