10The following is a letter to the editor of the Atticus City newspaper.

　　Former Mayor Durant owes an apology to the city of Atticus. Both the damage to the River Bridge, which connects Atticus to Hartley, and the traffic problems we have long experienced on the bridge were actually caused 20 years ago by Durant. After all, he is the one who approved the construction of the bridge. If he had approved a wider and better-designed bridge, on which approximately the same amount of public money would have been spent, none of the damage or problems would have occurred. Instead, the River Bridge has deteriorated far more rapidly over the past 20 years than has the much longer DerbyBridge up the river. Even though the winters have been severe in the past several years, this is no excuse for the negligence and wastefulness of Durant.

　　6尽管Whirlwind游戏公司的游戏销量在过去两年中下降了，最近一次对于电子游戏玩家的调查显示这种销售趋势可能会逆转。该调查询问游戏玩家对于一个游戏来说他们所认为的最重要特征是什么。根据调查结果，玩家倾向于那些需要最先进的电脑的，具有活灵活现图象的游戏。Whirlwind刚刚面向10-25岁的人群开展了大力的广告活动来推广若干此类游戏，10-25岁是最喜欢玩游戏的年龄层。这说明Whirlwind公司的游戏销量将会在未来几个月中猛增。

　　7 Brown市长最近获得了门罗镇全体选民52%的明显多数票而再次当选市长。然而，她的再次当选并不表明我们城市的多数市民更喜欢Brown提出的减税提案，而不是其竞争对手Greene先生提出的增加税收以促进教育的提案。已有证据表明全国的选民都倾向于再次选举那些已经在位的官员，不论候选人的竞选提案是什么。实际上，这次选举后的一次地方调查显示，门罗镇的多数市民不赞同Brown市长的提案。显然门罗镇的多数市民愿意改善教育，从而支持Greene的提案，尽管他们并没有投他的票。
