Are these sentences natural? May 14
Hi,
Are the following sentences natural to a native ear?
1. Try this pill; it will kill your craving for chocolate.
2. is there a possibility of improvement there?
3. Was that the average for the year or a year-end number?
Thanks,
MG

It's OK, but it would be more natural (for me) to say "...it kills the craving...." or "...it kills my craving."
