　　Smoking来源:和谐英语网
　　Since 1939, numerous studies have been conducted to determine whether smoking is a health hazard. The trend of the evidence has been consistent and indicates that there is a serious health risk. Research teams have conducted studies that show beyond all reasonable doubt that tobacco smoking is associated with a shortened life expectancy.
　　Cigarette smoking is believed by most research workers in this field to be an important factor in the development of cancer of the lungs and cancer of the throat and is believed to be related to cancer of some other organs of the body. Male cigarette smokers have a higher death rate from heart disease than non-smoking males. Female smokers are thought to be less affected because they do not breathe in the smoke so deeply.
　　Apart from statistics, it might be helpful to look at what tobacco does to the human body. Smoke is a mixture of gases, vaporized chemicals, minute particles of ash and other solids. There is also nicotine, which is powerful poison, and black tar. As smoke is breathed in, all those components from deposits on the membranes of the lungs. One point of concentration is where the air tube and bronchus divides. Most lung cancer begins at this point.
　　Filters and low tar tobacco are claimed to make smoking to some extent safer, but they can only slightly reduce, not eliminate the hazards.

　　标准答案： B,A,A,C来源:和谐英语网
　　解析：1. B.该题考察考生的推断/或总结概括能力。利用hazardous(问题句中的修饰词)作为答案线索词，这样找到答案相关句：Since 1939, numerous studies have been conducted to determine whether smoking is a health hazard(hazardous的名词形式).该句说“自从1939年以来， 已经进行了许多次实验以确定是否吸烟会对健康造成危害。”， 因此可以推断出判断“吸烟是否有害”并不容易。
　　2. A。借助常识判断该句说法正确，因此答案可能是正确或没提到(提示：违背我们常识和/或背景知识的内容往往都是错误的)。利用题干中life expectancy(新信息)作为答案线索词，直接在文章中找到答案相关句： Research teams have conducted studies that show beyond all reasonable doubt that tobacco smoking is associated with a shortened life expectancy.该句说“研究小组所做出的研究结果都表明吸烟与寿命的缩短有关， 这些研究结果不容质疑。”该句内容与问题句的说法一致， 因此答案为正确。
　　3. A。 借助背景知识判断该句说法正确，因此推测答案可能是正确或没提到。利用题干中的lung cancer(特征词)作为答案线索词，这样直接在文章中找到答案相关句：Cigarette smoking is believed by most research workers in this field to be an important factor in the development of cancer of the lungs and cancer of the throat and is believed to be related to cancer of some other organs of the body.划线结构的内容说“从事这一领域研究的大部分研究工作者都认为吸烟是导致肺癌的一个重要因素。”因此判断问题句的说法正确。
　　4. C。 利用题干中的breast cancer(特征词)作为答案线索词，没有在文章中找到包含该答案线索词的句子， 所以判断问题句的说法为“没提到”。

　　5. Male smokers have a lower death rate from heart disease than female smokers
　　A. Right B.Wrong C. Not mentioned
　　6. Nicotine is poisonous.
　　A. Right B.Wrong C. Not mentioned
　　7. Filters and low tar tobacco make smoking safer.
　　A. Right B.Wrong C. Not mentioned
　　标准答案： B,A,B
　　解析：5. B。 该题考察考生的推断能力。 利用题干中的heart disease，male smokers， female smokers(特征词)作为答案线索词，这样找到答案相关句： Male cigarette smokers have a higher death rate from heart disease than non-smoking males. Female smokers are thought to be less affected because they do not breathe in the smoke so deeply.以上两句说“男性烟民死于心脏病的概率高于男性不吸烟者。 女性烟民被认为受到较小的影响， 因为她们不会象男性烟民那样把烟深深地吸入肺里”。综合这两句内容可以得出的结论应该是“女性烟民死于心脏病的概率要低于男性烟民”， 因此判断问题句的说法不正确。
　　6. A。 借助背景知识判断该句说法正确，因此推测答案可能是正确或没提到。利用题干中的Nicotine(特征词)作为答案线索词，这样直接在文章中找到答案相关词句：There is also nicotine, which is powerful poison, and black tar(焦油). 该题考察考生对非限制定语从句的理解。 which is powerful poison是非限制定语从句， 修饰前面的名词Nicotine， 该从句的内容是“有着很强的毒性的(尼古丁)”， 因此判断问题句的说法正确。
　　7.B. 利用题干中的Filters(过滤器) 和 low tar tobacco(低焦油)作为答案线索词，这样在文章中找到直接答案相关句：Filters and low tar tobacco are claimed to make smoking to some extent safer, but they can only slightly reduce, not eliminate the hazards.该句说：“但是它们(过滤器和低焦油)只能稍微减少吸烟的危险， 而不能消除吸烟的危险”， 因此判断问题句(过滤器和低焦油使吸烟更加安全)不正确(因为“过滤器和低焦油使吸烟更加安全”这种说法的言外之意就是“吸烟本身是安全的， 而过滤器和低焦油能使吸烟更加安全”， 显然这与文章的主题—“吸烟有害健康”不一致。)。
