My parents didn't care much They both smoked, and my older brother did too My mother told me that smokers don't grow tall, bull was already 5'6" (taller than most of the boys in my class), so I was happy to hear that "fact" In school, the teachers talked against smoking, but the cigarette advertisements were so exciting The men in the ads were so good-looking and so successful, and the women were--well, they were beautiful and sophisticated (老于世故的)

Up in Smoke I began to smoke when I was in high school. In fact, I remember the evening I

was at a girlfriend’s house, and we were watching a movie—a terribly romantic movie. He (the hero of the movie) was in love, she (his lady) was beautiful, and they were both smoking. My friend had only two cigarettes from a pack in her mother’s purse, and she gave one to me. It was my first time.

My parents didn’t care much. They both smoked, and my older brother did too. My mother told me that smokers don’t grow tall, but I was already5’6”(taller than most of the boys in my class), so I was happy to hear that “fact”. In school, the teachers talked against smoking, but the cigarette advertisements were so exciting. The men in the ads were so good-looking and so successful, and the women were-well, they were beautiful and sophisticated(老于世故的).

I read a book called how to stop smoking. The writer said that smoking wastes time, and that cigarettes cost a lot of money. “So what？” I thought, the book didn’t say that smoking can take away years of your life. But ten years later, everyone began to hear about the negative effects of cigarette smoke: lung disease, cancer, and heart problems. After that, there was a health warning on every pack of cigarettes. I didn’t pay much attention to the reports and warnings. I felt healthy, and I thought I was taking good care of myself.

Then two events changed my mind. First, I started to cough. I thought it was just a cold, but it didn’t get better. Second, my brother got lung cancer. He got sicker and sicker. My brother and I used to smoke cigarettes together over twenty years age, and we smoked our last cigarettes together the day before he died. I sat with him in his hospital room, and I decided to quit. “NO more cigarettes, ever,” I said to myself.

However, it was very hard to stop, Nicotine(尼古丁)is a drug; as a result, cigarettes cause a powerful addiction. I tried several times to quit on my own—without success. I made excuses. I told myself: Smoking helps me keep my figure—i.e. I don’t gain weight when I smoke. Smoking not only relaxes me but it also helps me think clearly. I’m a free, liberated woman. I can smoke when I want to.

Finally, I ran out of excuses—I might say my excuses went up in smoke. I joined the “Stop Smoking” program at the local hospital, which also ended up in failure.

"I smoke for my health," I declared in a newspaper article published in 1979.（46) . I reas

"I smoke for my health," I declared in a newspaper article published in 1979. (46) . I reasoned that smoking made me cough and thus prevented pneumonia (肺炎); smoking made my heart go faster and eliminated the need for special exercise; smoking restrained my appetite and kept me trim. And then, at 51, I had a heart attack.

I knew the risk factors for early heart attacks include hypertension, diabetes(糖尿病), and a family history of heart disease, high blood-cholesterol (胆固醇)levels and smoking. (47) .

Strange how the evidence that linked smoking to heart disease appeared unclear to me, and how the same data now appear overwhelmingly convincing. Why stop now？ Smokers who stop after their first heart attack have an 80-percent chance of living ten more years-- (48) .

As a smoker, I always resented the fact that we smokers received only scorn from non-smokers. How could non-smokers know that smoking was had for the health if there were no smokers to prove it？ Being a member of the experimental group, rather than the control group, deserves a certain measure of social appreciation. I've done my time. I' m now ready to be a control. I no longer smoke for my health. My health can' t stand the help.

Will I miss the late - night trips to find a store that's still open and selling cigarettes？ Will I miss searching through ashtrays(烟灰缸)to find the longest butt(烟蒂) that is still smokable？ Only time will tell. Not smoking may give me the time to find out.

(49) Sure. Here is all you have to do. First, experience a severe crushing pain under your breastbone as you finish a cigarette. Next, have yourself admitted to a coronary-care(心脏康复)unit and be stripped of your clothing and belongings. Finally, remain in the unit at absolute bed rest for four days while smoking is forbidden. This broke my habit (50)

A. Was it easy to stop？

B. if they don't, a 60 percent chance.

C. See if it works for you.

D. All the smokers find it's hard to stop.

E. Since I am a doctor, this advice attracted amused attention.

F. The first four were in my favour, but I chose to smoke.

根据下列文章,请回答 36～40 题。

Richard:

In my opinion, smoking is only an amusement, like playing cards, reading, etc. Many years ago, when an adult handed me a cigarette and lit it for me, I felt grown up. When I am with friends and have nothing to say, we smoke, consequently we no longer feel embarrassed. Sometimes, I light a cigarette, suffering and nervousness vanishing with the smoke, I can't help saying inwardly: Hello, cigarette, my old friend, I' m coming to meet you again.

Stanton:

Many people believe smokers have the right to smoke. But they also believe that others shouldn't have to pay a price. The risk of tobacco smoke is greater than the risk of radon gas is to non-smokers. We're talking maybe 40 percent greater. And if you're talking about all the carcinogenic air pollutants that EPA regulates, it's 100 times greater.

Davis:

According to our investigation, tobacco smoke in the home and workplace could be killing 46, 000 non-smokers each year in the United States. That's 3, 000 lung cancer deaths, 11, 000 from other cancers and 32,000 heart disease deaths. That would make passive smoking the leading preventable cause of death in the United States after alcohol and smoking itself. Smoking kills 390,000 while alcohol 120,000.

James:

Passive smoking has become the principal battleground for the tobacco industry and its opponents in the 1980s, It is no longer merely a health issue, but political and environmental. Cigarette pollution is fouling the air. According to the Environmental Protection Agency's indoor air program's result, we know that the indoor environment is far more polluted than the outdoor environment. We've seen that again and again wherever we've looked all over the United States.

Winston:

Sir, another fact about smoking is that cigarettes give people a good deal of pleasure. There is considerable evidence, surprisingly little publicized, showing that smoking produces certain beneficial effects in human beings. Smoking counteracts some decrease in efficiency, and smokers improve their performance in complex situations while smoking. There is also evidence showing that nicotine can produce a tranquilizing effect during high emotional and shock situations, while on the other hand stimulating concentration in tedious situations.

Now match each of the items(61 to 65)to the appropriate statement

Note: There are two extra statements.

Statements

第 36 题 Richard

A．Passive smoking is the third preventable cause of death.

B．Smokers have the fight to smoke.

C．Smoking produces some positive effects in some complex situations.

D．Second-hand smoke is more harmful to non-smokers than those cancer-inducing air pollutants.

E．Cigarette pollution has caused outdoor environment even worse.

F．Smoking can help people get rid of nervousness.

G．Smoking is also an environmental issue.
