Jack was a big, fine figure of a policeman, and always had a lot of work to do.
One day, he was too busy to have enough lunch and had to keep on working. He walked up and down Market Street, keeping a           eye on things and getting hungrier and hungrier. He passed Tony’s       store. “Would you like to have a banana, Jack?” greeted Tony. But Jack       his head and said, “No, thank you.” He never ate when he was at      . Then he went past another shop that was full of cheeses, cold meats, potato chips, and so on. And when the shopkeeper offered him a pack of sausage, he         again. So it went, all day long. The       man went past the sweet store, the bakery, the peanut man and the toffee-apple man, saying, “No, thank you, not on duty.” He got much         . At last, his day ended, and he immediately ran back home. He went      the stairs and into the kitchen.
“You must be hungry, man!” cried his wife, who had prepared well for the dinner, “ Sit at the       and eat!” Jack sat down immediately and began to enjoy the meal.

Dear Dad,
I am writing this letter to you because it’s too difficult to talk about it. I can’t stop            about my uncle and how he died. In fact, I seriously want to ask you to stop smoking. I’ve looked up       information about smoking and I’ve found out some disturbing(令人不安的) things.
You already know that smoking is bad for your breathing and can cause cancer. I’ve found out       it causes many other illnesses as well. Did you know that over 100,000 people die from smoking every year in Britain? It’s the second         cause of death in the world. I don’t want you to be one of these people.
When Mum        you to smoke outside, you think she’s just being difficult. Well, it’s true that she doesn’t like the smell of smoke in the house and on our clothes. It’s not very pleasant. However, when you smoke, it’s also bad for me and Mum. In other words, when we breathe in your smoke, it’s like we are smoke        . As a result, we can get diseases as well. Doctors are finding that more and more non-smokers are falling ill because of the effects of other people’s smoking.
I know that it is very difficult to stop smoking      you mustn’t give in(屈服) to it. Please see the doctor and ask him for help. We will do anything we can      you. You must try to save your own        . You are important to us and we don’t want to lose you. Who else can I ask to help me       my maths homework or fix my bike? Please don’t smoke!
Your loving daughter,
Kate
