Dear Mr. Smith,

    I’m very much glad to hear that your shopping centre will build non-smoking supermarket. In my opinion, it’s 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 don’t like smoking are sure to support you. In addition, smoke in the shopping centre may cause fire, which is dangerous to both your possessions and the safe 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!

【解析】

试题分析：本篇短文是作者对于商场要建无烟超市所发表的看法。在作者看来，建无烟商场不但可以帮助吸烟的人减少吸烟而且有利于其他顾客的身体健康；此外也减少了发生火灾的几率，总之建无烟商场不会影响生意，只会吸引更多的顾客前来购物。

 I’m very much glad to hear that… 。very much 用来修饰动词，而此处是修饰形容词glad，所以用副词very，故去掉much。

 your shopping centre will build non-smoking supermarket.因为supermarket是可数名词，此处指建一个无烟超市所以需在non-smoking前加a。

 it can not only help the smokers to smoke less, and it can also do good to …此句句意为：不但帮助吸烟的人少吸烟而且也对其他顾客健康有益，固定搭配 not only…but also 表示不但。。。而且的意思，所以把and改为but。

 Since you had given up selling cigarettes,此句中不再销售香烟是指现在的状况，所以用现在完成时态，所以had改为have。

 the customers don’t like smoking are sure to support you.。从句意可知句中的顾客是指不喜欢吸烟的顾客，所以don’t前加who构成定语从句，而主句谓语是are sure to，句意：那些不吸烟的顾客肯定是支持你的。答案为don’t前加who。

 smoke in the shopping centre may cause fire,句中somke动词不做主语，所以smoke改为smoking。

句意：在购物中心吸引可能会引起火灾。

 the safe of the customers此处是指顾客的安全，应该用名词，所以.safe改为safety。

 the non-smoking supermarket will not effect your business.句意是无烟超市将不会影响你的生意。而句中effect做动词意思为“实现，引起”不合句意，所以把effect改为affect。

 To the contrary, it will help you 。。。 to the contrary 意思是相反的，不做插入语。而on the contrary意思是“恰恰相反”常常用做插入语，所以把To改为On。

 who want to keep health。此处保持健康keep后应该是形容词，故把health改为healthy。

考点：考查短文改错。
