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] 【C4】
选项
答案
C
解析
此处需填入名词、形容词或分词,修饰impact“影响,冲击”。因为面临再次参选,Michael Bloomberg好像对禁烟的程度持保留态度,他想先弄清楚在公园吸烟是否对健康有不良影响,因而填negative“负面的”。再者,impact这个词本身就含有不好的影响之意。
