Dear Mr. Smith,
I’m very much glad to hear that your international shopping center will build non-smoking supermarket. In my opinion, it is a good idea to do so, for it can not only help the smokers to smoke less, and it can also do good to other customers’ health. Since you had given up selling cigarettes, the customers who doesn’t like smoking are sure to support you. In addition, smoke in the shopping center may cause fire, which is very dangerous to both your possession and the safety of the customers. In a word, the non-smoking supermarket will not effect your business. To the contrary, it will help you attract more customers who want to keep health.
Best wishes!

I examined Belker and found him 1. (die) of cancer. I told the family we couldn’t do 2. for Belker, and offered to perform the euthanasia(安乐死) procedure in their home.
As we made arrangements, Ron and Lisa told me they thought 3. would be good for six-year-old Shane to watch. They felt Shane might learn something.
The next day, Belker’s family surrounded him. Shane seemed so calm, petting(拍) the old dog for the last time, that I wondered if he understood 4. was happening. Within a few minutes, Belker slipped 5. (peaceful) away.

8. (surprise), we all turned to him. What he said next amazed me. It has changed my life.
He said, “People are born so that they can learn how to live 9. good life—like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right?”
The six-year-old boy continued, “Well, dogs already know how to do that, 10. they don’t have to stay as long.”
