Dear Bill,

You must know how deeply saddened I was over your loss. Your sister and I were the dearest friend and recalling the past, I dare saying she was like a sister to me. I will miss him very much.

I could always count at her whenever I needed help, whether with a big project and a small task that she was always so willing to help me with. I came to trust her judgment and wise as well and her advice were always so well thought out and helpful.

She was a terrible great friend and I know our lives will never be same without her. I could never find a better and more caring friend. She has been left us with so many wonderful memories. I will cherish them forever.

In Deep Sorrow,

Betty Smith

How do Cigarettes Affect the Body?

Cigarettes aren’t good for us. But how exactly do cigarettes harm us? Let’s look at what happens as their ingredients make their way through our bodies, and how we benefit 【1】 when we finally give up smoking.

Inside the airways and lungs, smoke increases the 【2】 of infections as well as long - lasting diseases. It does this by damaging the tiny hair - like tissues which keep the airways clean. That’s one of the reasons smoking can lead to oxygen loss and 【3】 of breath.

Within about 10 seconds, the bloodstream carries a stimulant called nicotine to the brain, creating the 【4】 sensations which make smoking highly addictive. Nicotine and other chemicals from the cigarette, at the same time, cause tightness of blood tubes, restricting blood flow. These effects on blood tubes lead to 【5】 of blood tube walls, increasing the possibility of heart attacks and strokes.

Many of the chemicals inside cigarettes can activate dangerous 【6】 in the body’s DNA that make cancers form. In fact, about one of every three cancer deaths in the United States is caused by smoking. And it’s not just lung cancer. Smoking can cause cancer in multiple tissues and organs, as well as damaged eyesight and 【7】 bones. It makes it harder for women to get pregnant. And in men, it can cause long-term damages of body functions.

But for those who quit smoking, there’s a huge positive upside with almost 【8】 and long-lasting physical benefits. A day after ceasing, heart attack risk begins to decrease as blood pressure and heart rates 【9】. Lungs become healthier after about one month, with less coughing. After ten years, the chances of developing fatal lung cancer go down by 50%, probably because the body’s ability to repair DNA is once again restored.

There’s no point pretending this is all easy to achieve. Quitting can lead to anxiety and depression. But fortunately, such effects are usually 【10】. Advice and support groups and moderate intensity exercise also help smokers stay cigarette - free. That’s good news, since quitting puts you and your body on the path back to health.

Dear Manager，

This is a letter of complaint concerned the actions of one of your online store．Last Sunday，October 29th，I buy a dress from a store on your website．But I was not satisfied with the dress when I received it，so I decided to return it．But the salesman refused my request in a rudely tone．I explained the reason that I wanted to return it，but he said he was busy and didn’t have time to deal it．Now he isn’t replying to us at a11．

I feel that the salesman was impolite．I hope that you can look into for the matter．I have bought lots of things on your website and I look forward to a much pleasurable shopping experience next time．

Yours，

Li Hua

In between all the measures to battle the severe air pollution levels in Delhi, there’s one more option for you — a bar that has “pure air”. Delhi’s first-ever oxygen bar — named “Oxy Pure” — offers 15 minutes of 80-90 percent pure oxygen starting from Rs 299.

The bar, 【1】 in May, also offers its customers several aromas（香味）to choose from that can be filled with oxygen. The aromas include lemongrass, cherry, mango and more.

Customers are given a lightweight tube, used for supplementary oxygen 【2】. The device is placed near the customer’s nose through which they are advised to breathe in the aroma-filled oxygen.

According to the aroma you choose, each session 【3】 to improve one’s sleep patterns and digestion, cure headaches and even claims to work as a remedy for 【4】.

“I was passing by and saw that they were offering pure oxygen. I thought I would give it a try and went for the lemongrass flavour. It was 【5】,” Manjul Mehta, a customer at Oxy Pure told Delhi Daily.

Speaking to Delhi Daily, Bonny Irengbam, senior sales assistant at the bar, said customers were 【6】 positively after a few sessions.

“Some people, who try it for the first time, will feel relaxed and fresh. But only people who undergo the sessions regularly will get real 【7】 of the aroma,” he added. “Though we have regular customers, we don’t encourage back-to-back sessions, as 【8】 levels of oxygen in the body can make a person dizzy. It is 【9】 to do it once or twice a month or to stick with the 10-15 minute sessions a day,” he said.

Dr. Rajesh Chawla, a senior consultant in medicine said that though such sessions do not have any side-effects, it does not help in the long run either. “Even if you breathe in the so-called pure oxygen for two hours in a day, you will go back to breathing the polluted air for the rest of the 22 hours”, he said. He added that the concept is purely a(n) 【10】 move.

Why Do Chinese Parents Prefer Legos to Barbies?

Budding engineers cluster around a table - sized model of the China Art Museum, a landmark of Shanghai, adding helipads, carrot patches and other improvements with 【1】 bricks. Prising a child from Lego’s vast shop near People’s Square can be like 【2】 two stubborn bits of Lego. Li Yang, visiting for a few days from Shenzhen, has been waiting for her daughter for two hours. Zhu Yunfei, watching his son, 【3】 at the variety: “Coming here to play with him is making up for my childhood,” he says. They drop by every week.

Lego’s rise in China has been rapid and dramatic. In 2017 it 【4】 Alpha Group, a local giant, to become the country’s leading toy company (not including video games). In the past two years it has opened 89 stores. It wants 50 more by December, which will bring it to 30 cities. Its first Chinese factory started molding bricks in 2016. The toy industry is growing by 9% annually in the country, but the Danish firm’s Chinese arm notches up “very strong double digits,” says Paul Huang, its boss.

It has done so even as the brick maker’s global business has looked shakier. In 2017 Lego cut 1,400 jobs and 【5】 its first drop in revenues and profits in over a decade. But last year both ticked up again, by 4% each. Lego has thus 【6】 its status as the world’s biggest toy-maker, taken from Mattel in 2014 -- even as its American rival last year 【7】 its highest revenues in five years from its Barbie dolls.

Newly affluent（富裕的）parents in China have helped Lego 【8】. “We have not maxed out there, by far,” says Niels Christiansen, whom Lego brought in as chief executive two years ago. As in the West, the educational merits of bricks 【9】 to Chinese parents. Last year 98% of those surveyed by Lego said that play was 【10】 for their child’s well-being, even more than Americans and Danes.
