Dr. Thun【C13】______that although nonsmokers do have some risk, smokers are much【C14】______off: a man who never smoked has a 1.1 in 100 risk of dying【C15】______lung cancer, but it jumps to 1 in 5 if he【C16】______In women, the risk goes from 0.8 in 100 to 1 in 8.

C、study
D、experiment

B
解析
名词辨析题。文章的开头提到“关于肺癌有个令人不安的事实:不吸烟并不意味着远离肺癌。”然后谈到“一个非常明显的——,是10%~15%”,因此这里需要填入表示“比例”的词,故选proportion“比例”。phenomenon“现象”;study“研究”;experiment“实验”。
