Dear Cathy,

I am writing to share my opinion on fashion with you, for I had just heard that you are disappointing because you can’t afford famous brands.

I shall say that it is naturally for people to care about his appearance. And it is true that fashionable thing like clothes and shoes will make one more eye-catching. Therefore, I think it is really a waste of money for you to buy famous brands. Besides, it will also add the burden of your parents.

What’s more, beauty is only skin-deep. There are many things in which can make you popular beside fashion. A great amount of knowledge and a warm heart will surely win others’ respect.

As the saying goes, never judge the person by his appearance. I do hope that you will remember the saying and be as happy as you used to be.

Yours,

Jane

【4】his --- their 句意：人们在意他们的外表是很自然的。故把his --- their。

【5】thing ---things 句意：时尚的东西。thing是可数名词，故把thing ---things。

【6】Therefore ---However 句意：然而，这真的是浪费钱。此处表示转折，故把Therefore ---However。

【7】在add和the之间加to 句意：它也将增加你父母的负担。add to添加，增加。故在add和the之间加to.

【8】去掉in 此处考查定语从句，many things是先行词，从句既缺主语，又缺引导词，可知引导词在这里做主语，故去掉in。

【9】beside ---besides 句意：除了时尚外还使你受欢迎。故把beside ---besides。

【10】the---a 句意：不要靠外表判断一个人。故把the---a。
