Smokers in the "land of the free" are finding themselves increasingly less free to pursue their habit. New York City officials are the latest to consider banning smoking in their parks and outside spaces.
The possibility of extending smokefree legislation was【C1】______in a public health policy document. However the mayor, Michael Bloomberg—who has【C2】______anti-smoking programmes but is up for reelection—appeared to qualify the extent of the【C3】______. He wanted "to see if smoking in parks has a【C4】______impact on people’s health", the New York Times reported recently, suggesting it "might not be【C5】______possible to enforce a ban across thousands of acres."
Cigarette makers Phillip Morris USA did not like the idea at all. "We believe that smoking should be permitted outdoors except in very particular【C6】______, such as outdoor areas primarily【C7】______for children," a company spokesman said.
But the ban plan from the city’s health commissioner, Thomas Farley, won some backing from the council’s speaker, Christine Quinn. Fines should be【C8】______, she said, but "conceptually, that’s an idea I’m very interested in and open to."
Such bans remain【C9】______but are increasing, with California in the vanguard(前锋). State legislators there have【C10】______smoking in all state parks and on parts of beaches, two years after Los Angeles extended its existing ban on playgrounds and beaches to parks. Chicago still allows smoking in many of its parks, but bans it at beaches and playgrounds.
A)occurrences B)modest C)negative D)evacuated
E)championed F)circumstances G)outlined H)mild
I)logistically J)designated K)provoked L)rare
M)analytically N)prohibited O)restrictions [br] 【C2】
选项
答案
E
解析
此处应填入动词的过去分词,与has构成完成时态,宾语是anti-smoking programmes(反吸烟方案)。第一段末句提到纽约市的官员们最近开始考虑在公园和户外禁止吸烟,由此推断Michael Bloomberg应该是支持反吸烟方案的。championed“支持,拥护”符合上下文语义。
