Secondhand smoke is accountable for 42,000 deaths annually to nonsmokers in the United States, including nearly 900 infants, according to a new study. Altogether, annual deaths from secondhand smoke【C1】______ nearly 600,000 years of potential life lost—an average of 14.2 years per person—and $6.6 billion in lost productivity,【C2】______ to $158,000 per death, report the researchers. The new research reveals that despite public health efforts to reduce tobacco use, secondhand smoke continues to【C3】______ a grievous toll on nonsmokers.

"The【C5】______ of information on biomarker-measured (生物指标测量 ) exposure allows us to more accurately assess the impact of secondhand smoke exposure on health and productivity. The impact is particularly great for communities of color."
Exposure to secondhand smoke is linked to a number of【C6】______ illnesses including heart and lung disease, as well as conditions affecting newborns such as low birth weight and respiratory distress syndrome. In the research, the scientists【C7】______ the economic implications— years of potential life lost and the value of lost productivity—on different racial and ethnic groups.
"Our study probably underestimates the true economic impact of secondhand smoke on【C8】______ ," said Max. "The toll is substantial, with communities of color having the greatest【C9】______ . Interventions need to be designed to reduce the health and economic burden of smoking on smokers and nonsmokers alike, and on particularly【C10】______ groups."

选项
答案
C
解析
空格位于be动词are和表语very large之中,故应填入副词。上一句提到吸烟的人越来越少,许多人也已经改变了生活方式,本句说但我们的研究显示二手烟的影响巨大。nonetheless意为“尽管如此,仍然”,相当于still。呼应上文but。
