Dear Ms. Montague,
As you are probably aware, the recent smoking ban has had a (150) impact on our business. Our sales have dropped 40 percent in the last six months. Though we do not expect this to be a long-term concern for our business, we don't expect sales to return to normal until the summer when our patio opens for the tourist season.
Due to the loss in business we regret (151) you that we are laying off all of our hosts and hostesses for the winter and spring. With business being so slow our servers can handle the task of greeting and seating customers on their own.
You are (152) to two week's severance pay, which will be paid in full on your next paycheck.
Please come in for any scheduled shifts next week.
Thank you for your hard work and dedication at Pino's Pizzeria. Please apply again for our next summer season.
Sincerely,
Franco Bellini

Re: Thermostat located in your office
It has come to our attention that the thermostat located in your office is frequently being turned off. Please be aware that although this thermostat is located in your office, it actually controls the temperature on the entire second floor. When it is turned off, it affects not only your office, but all the surrounding offices as well. We ask that you not touch the thermostat. The other second floor tenants are complaining about the lack of heat in their offices.
If you wish to adjust the temperature in your office at any time, please speak with me or with one of my assistants. We would be happy to help you create an environment that is comfortable for you and your office staff, but please remember that we need to consider the comfort of everyone in the building. Thank you for your cooperation.
What is the problem?
A.Someone keeps turning off the thermostat.
B.There is no thermostat on the second floor.
C.The other tenants want a thermostat.
D.The second floor has enough heat.
What is the purpose of the meeting?
A.To report thefts
B.To help unauthorized persons around the premises
C.To explain new security measures
D.To make a collection for Jenny who is leaving
Exercise : please fill the blank with the right sentence which suits best the logic development of this paragraph. A. Like all brothers, they do have cross words, but they are a good support for each other. B. He always behaves as the older brother and often looks out for Harry. C. As they get older, the age difference diminishes and they get closer and genuinely enjoy each other’s company. Boys no more, the two British princes are not only maturing gracefully into manhood, they seem to be growing into a comfortable and supportive relationship after the death of Diana, their mother. 1 And perhaps they also enjoy each other’s difference. Keenly aware of his place in the royal lineup, the shy and introspective William remains a classic first son: responsible, serious and controlled. 2 The more volatile Harry continues to be easygoing and carefree, often looking to William to take the lead. Still, Harry’s fiery side can flare when he feels overshadowed or put down by his big brother. 3 And each is in a position to know just how the other feels --- about being in the spotlight, about the blessings and burdens of growing up royal, about losing a parent who was both the most famous woman in the world and, more simply, their mother. “They need each other in terms of moral support,” says a friend of Williams. “Since the death of their mother, even more so.”
To start, consider transportation fees. For example, if you're driving, fill up the gas tank before traveling on the highway, where it's much costlier, says Clarky Davis, a personal finance expert. And make sure your car is in good condition by checking your heating vents, keeping up with routine maintenance and ensuring your tires are properly inflated, all of which help the ear achieve favorable fuel economy. Furthermore, not only does a tow car(救援车) cause inconvenience; it also means extra costs.
For those opting to fly, first, be aware of how much it costs to check a bag. Most airlines are charging for every checked bag by weight, but prices vary from carrier to carrier. If you can manage to pack everything into a carry-on, you'll save at least $15. Brooke Ferencsik, a travel expert, suggests considering secondary airports when booking your flight. These airports often are less crowded and frequently offer cheaper tickets.
And when it comes to your actual destination, don't assume that hotels are going to cut back on fees simply because they're desperate to draw customers. "They won't be adding or increasing fees, but they won't be decreasing them either," says Ferencsik. The best defense against extra fees is to read about the hotel's rates online, before you make a reservation. "Be aware of surcharges for everything from housekeeping to groundskeeping to use of the in-room safe," says Ferenesik. Some hotels even install a sensor(传感器) within the mini bar, charging guests for simply touching the items, let alone eating or drinking them.
"From airlines to hotels to rental ears, they've all got hidden fees you need to be aware of," says Ferencsik. "Do your homework and ask questions."
It is found that 71% of Americans regard it as worthwhile to______.
A.spend money on souvenirs while traveling with family and friends
B.accept hidden costs while traveling with family and friends
C.travel with family and friends during the holiday season
D.travel with family and friends so as to please them
