Re: Doing our part
Dear Mr. Cobalt:
I'm writing to you to express my concern about Pascal's reputation as a wasteful company. I'm sure you read the recent letter to the editor in the Sydney Daily News regarding our non-recyclable plastic bottles and caps. Since the letter was printed, (150) have received complaints from hundreds of customers who are threatening to boycott our company if we don't change our practices. We have also received flyers from (151) manufacturing companies offering to help us become a more environmentally friendly company. ! have looked briefly into some of these options on my own time but would like to ask your permission to do more.
I would like (152) 20 hours of my upcoming workweek to this cause in hopes of coming up with a viable plan for Pascal's future as a company that cares about recycling, I hope you will agree with me that our environment is worth us making an effort. Please respond as soon as possible.
Sincerely,
Geraldine Bennett, Administrative Assistant
Pascal's Pharmaceuticals

I restate that we are an organization without independent military capability, and we dispose of relatively modest resources in the economic realm. Yet our influence and impact on the world is far greater than many believe to be the case, and often more than we ourselves realize. This influence derives not from any exercise of power, but from the force of the values we represent. Among these values are the maintenance of the world order and the establishment of world harmony.

Advertisers now place "banners", links to commercial web sites decorated with attractive pictures designed to catch our eyes while browsing, the webs, on key web sites with heavy traffic. They pay top dollar for the right, thus creating profits for the hosting web site as well'. These actions are performed in the hopes that during the course of our casual and leisurely web surfing, we'll click on that banner that sparks our interest and thus, in theory, buy the products advertised.
Initial results have been positive. Web sites report a huge inflow of cash, both from the advertisers who lure customers in with the banners and the hosting web sites who are paid for allowing the banners to be put in place. As trust and confidence in Internet buying increases and information security is heightened with new technology, the volume of buying is increasing, leading to even greater profits.
The current situation, however, is not quite as optimistic. Just as magazine readers tend to unconsciously ignore advertisements in their favorite periodicals, web browser are beginning to allow banners to slip their notice as well. Internet users respond to the flood of banners by viewing them as annoyances, a negative image that is hurting sales, since users are now less reluctant .to click on those banners, preferring not to support of system that put them in place. If Internet advertising is to continue to-be a viable and profitable business practice, new methods will need to be considered to reinvigorate the industry.
With the recent slump in the technology sector and slumping economy, even new practices may not do the trick. As consumers are saving more and frequenting traditional "brick and mortar" businesses over their Internet counterparts, the fate of Internet business is called into question. The coming years will be the only reliable indication of whether shopping on the world wide web is the wave of the future or simply an impulse activity whose whim has passed.
We learn from the beginning of the text that advertising on the web ______.
A.Internet advertising has displaced more traditional methods of advertising
B.banners and other advertising schemes are the ways to make profit on the
C.is paralleling advertising methods in traditional business settings
D.seeks to lure customers primarily through impulse shopping methods

It is my privilege to introduce again an annual report of the work of Our Lady's Hospice.
Our Lady's Hospice, the first of its kind in these western islands, has centered the second century of caring for those with terminal illness. It was first opened in Milltown and its opening was the realization of a long cherished(心中怀着)dream. For years the Sisters(修女)had longed for a place where poor, lonely, friendless dying persons--no longer fit subjects for hospital wards(病房)--could find care, comfort and peacefulness in their last days of life. In December 1879 these hopes were fulfilled when Our Lady's formally welcomed the first patients--35 in number.
So great were the applications for admission that six years later the foundation stone of the present Hospice was laid on 18th July 1886 and completed in August 1888.
Much has been written about the spirit of the Hospice and much will continue to be written with present increasing interest in the Hospice was opened in a spirit that regarded neither race, nor belief, nor class but looked simply to the need of the person for help and for peace in the last days of life. We hope the same spirit born out of love, care and respect for the dignity and worth of each human person, will comfort all, both patients and their loved ones, who seek our help in the Hospice today.
This report is given by ______.
A.a reporter who is interested in Hospice work
B.a patient representative
C.a leading figure of the Hospice
D.one of the founders of the Hospice

Dear Sir,
I am writing 【C1】______ a strong complaint about the 【C2】______ treatment my guests, my colleague and I received when we visited your restaurant last Friday evening. On hooking a table for four by telephone on Tuesday we were 【C3】______ that there would be room for us despite the fact that you had only been 【C4】______ for a few weeks and were already booked.
We appreciate that there must be great 【C5】______ for restaurant meals at this time of the year in such a popular and 【C6】______ area but we were not expecting such an ill-mannered reception on the part of your head waiter.
Our Chinese friends are currently touring the "Shakespeare country" and were looking forward to a traditional English dinner in such a charming setting. But our hopes 【C7】______ an enjoyable evening out were instantly spoilt when your head waiter informed us that he had received no booking in our name and, so, no table was 【C8】______ for our party. My colleague and I protested at this and asked to speak to the manager, who, we were told, was unavailable. Your staff then offered us a table which we all had to share with another couple and no effort was made to 【C9】______ the unpleasantness we had experienced. We also had to wait some 【C10】______ time before the menu was brought to us.
I trust you will give this complaint your prompt attention as the whole embarrassing incident was a great. disappointment to our guests and sets a bad example of our English hospitality.
Yours sincerely,
Paul J. Weller

Sally,
I just got a phone call from the Tanaka Animal Clinic, and they are willing to donate $5,000 for the fundraiser. I am also expecting a call from Lou Gibbons, who said his company would donate for the shelter as well.
Before you finish the changes to the advertisement, please put the following:
"The City Animal Shelter would like to thank the Tanaka Animal Clinic and Gibbon's Photography for the generous donation to the fundraiser."
I already mentioned that we would include their names in our advertisement in hopes it would inspire other local businesses to donate. I think this fundraiser will be a great event.
Thank you for your hard work. Please show me the ad before you send it to the newspaper.
Regards,
Bruce
