The London’s District Court dismissed the damage suit brought by former tobacco addicts against British Tobacco Incorporated and the British Government.
The six accusers suffering lung cancer and other illness claim their health was ruined by years of cigarette smoking. An editorial in a London newspaper says the court demonstrated lack of understanding of the real dangers of smoking as the health warning put on the cigarette packages is far from enough. The newspaper says telling the smokers that they should "Please be careful. Not to smoke in excess" is almost like telling them there is no harm done as long as they smoke reasonably. This is a doubled message that docs not clearly warn the smokers of dangers, not to mention the harm of secondary smoke. The editorial cites a World Bank report that shows the success rate for any individual who tries to stop smoking is badly low and most smokers who quit restart the habit within a year. The paper notes that the simple fact is that their smoking is a hard habit to break. Smoking does cause all sorts of health problems and increase the risk of early death. That is why it is so important to ensure the young people do not start the habit in the first place.
选项
A、The smokers lost the case.
B、The health warning on the cigarette packages is misleading.
C、The World Bank report shows that most smokcrs succeed in quitting smoking in the end.
D、Smoking does cause all kinds of illnesses and even leads to early death.
答案
C
解析
综合判断题。浏览选项可知,这四个完整的句子表达的信息不相干,结合前文的听力技巧的介绍可知,本题考的可能是事实或演绎,所以听短文时对于以上选项表达的信息要判断出:原文是否出现,选项与原文是否一致,选项的推理是否正确。文中一开始提到的“dismissed the damage suit”的意思是伦敦地区法院“驳回了这起伤害起诉”。所以选项A符合原文,不能选。香烟盒上的警示沿“is far from enough”,文中也有“This is a doubled message that does not clearly warn the smokers of dangers,not to mention the harm of secondary smoke.”这样的句子,所以选项B符合原文,不可选。世界银行的一份报告表明戒烟的成功率“badly low”,而且“most smokers who quit restart the habit within a year”所以选项C与原文意思相反,是本题的正确答案。选项D符合原文结尾处的Smoking does cause all sorts of health problems and in crease the risk of early death,按题目要求不能选。
