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!

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】去掉much

【2】non-smoking前加a

【3】and →but

【解析】

试题分析：文中作者讲述了吸烟的坏处及对Mr. Smith建无烟超市的赞成。

【1】去掉much.考查副词。此处副词very修饰形容词glad，much属多余。故去掉much。

【2】non-smoking前加a.考查冠词。supermarket是可数名词单数，表示数量“一个”需要加冠词，故non-smoking前加a。

【3】and →but.考查连词。not only…but also…“不但…而且…”是固定结构，故and →but。句意：因为它不仅能帮助吸烟者吸的更少，而且对其他顾客的健康也好。

【4】had →have.考查时态。根据句中are sure to...可知，应用现在时态，根据后面的given判断用现在完成时，故had改为have。

【5】doesn’t →don’t.考查主谓一致。先行词是the customers是复数，定语从句的动词与之一致用复数，故doesn’t改为don’t。

【6】smoke →smoking.考查动名词。此处smoke作句子的主语，应用其动名词形式。故smoke改为smoking。

【7】possession →possessions.考查名词。possession表示“财产，所有物”时，多用复数形式。表示“拥有，持有”时为不可数名词。此处指财产，故possession改为possessions。

【8】effect →affect.考查形近词。effect是名词,而此处用于will后需要动词affect作谓语，故effect改为affect。

【9】To →On.考查短语。on the contrary是固定短语，表示“正相反”，故To改为On。

【10】health →healthy. 考查形容词。keep加形容词作表语，意为“使……处于某种状态”，此处指保持健康，故health改为healthy。
