问题                     The last cigarette?
    After reading an article entitled ’Cigarette Smoking and Your Health’, I lit a cigarette to calm my nerves. I smoked with concentration and pleasure as I was sure that this would be my last cigarette. For a whole week I did not smoke at all and during this time, my wife suffered terribly. I had all the usual symptoms of someone giving up smoking: a bad temper and an enormous appetite. My friends kept on offering me cigarettes and cigars. They made no effort to hide their amusement whenever I produced a packet of sweets from my pocket. After seven days of this I went to a party. Everybody around me was smoking and I felt extremely uncomfortable. When my old friend Brian urged me to accept a cigarette, it was more than I could bear. I took one guiltily, lit it and smoked with satisfaction. My wife was delighted that things had returned to normal once more. Anyway, as Brian pointed out, it is the easiest thing in the world to give up smoking. He himself has done it lots of dines!
What can we infer from the passage?

选项 A、It’s very easy to give up smoking for Brian.
B、It’s not easy to give up smoking forever.
C、Brian doesn’t smoke anymore.
D、It would be the writer’s last cigarette.

答案B

解析 推理题。通读文章,我们得知作者和他的朋友Brian都试图戒烟,尤 其是如Brian所讲“He himself has done it lots of times!”。但是都只 坚持了一小段时间,最后都以失败告终,因为从文中我们得知Brian 现在还在吸烟,而作者在他的劝说下也放弃了戒烟,由此可以推断 [B]为答案。
