(We can use first，second，third...finally/at last/last but not least.)

(4)Why should the architect consider the writer's suggestions?

(Disabled people should have the same opportunities as healthy people to enjoy the cinema and to do so with dignity.Good access for disabled customers will help make the cinema successful.)

(5)The writer uses polite forms in the letter；do you know why?

(Polite forms are used to encourage the reader to take the ideas seriously.)

Step 4　Homework

The architect of the new supermarket is Mr Smith.Please write a letter to him to suggest ways to make the supermarket accessible for the people in wheelchairs.Remember to use the polite forms.

A sample letter：

Dear Mr Smith，

I am writing to suggest that you consider the following things when you design the supermarket.

First，could you please make sure that the aisles are wide enough to allow wheelchairs to pass through？In some supermarkets the aisles are so narrow that a person in a wheelchair can not move easily.

Second，could you please design shelves that can be reached by people in wheelchairs？In some supermarkets people in wheelchairs have to ask others to help them.

Last but not least，lifts should be in places that people in wheelchairs can get to easily.

I hope you will consider my suggestions.

Yours，

Ling Ming
