M: Yael, what’s that in your hand?
W: Come on, Don. Haven’t you seen a cigarette before? Every day in the United States, about 1500 girls begin smoking, so I decided to have a try.
M:(13)But Yael, don’t you know that tobacco kills more than 140,000 women each year?
W: Yeah, but that’s why I smoke a brand with low nicotine and tar content.
M: Although tobacco companies advertise some cigarettes as "light", this is just an advertising ploy to obscure the risks associated with smoking—(14)smoking a light cigarette is just as risky as smoking a regular one. In fact, research shows that people who smoke light cigarettes actually smoke differently in order to get higher levels of nicotine.
W: I didn’t know that.
M: The one thing you can say about tobacco companies is that they are really savvy about marketing. While tobacco ads that target men focus on cigarettes as manly or cool, tobacco ads that target women focus on social and political themes important to women. For example, ads will say that you’ve come a long way, or that you’ve found your voice, or encourage you to just be yourself,(15)as if smoking has anything to do with progress and self-expression. Young women are especially vulnerable to these ads because addiction, disease, and premature death seem so remote to them. And the thing is, people who have smoked as few as one hundred cigarettes report having difficulty quitting.
W: So, Don, can you pass me that ashtray?
M: With pleasure, Yael, as long as you put it out.
Questions 13 to 15 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
13. What is the dialogue main about?
14. According to the dialogue, which of the following is true?
15. What make young girls start to smoke?
选项
A、They think that it is a symbol of mature.
B、They think that smoking will ease their stressed life.
C、They think that smoking light cigarette is harmless.
D、They think that smoking can make them keep thin.
答案
A
解析
推理题。这道题可以从前后对话中揣摩出答案。女孩觉得有那么多女生都开始抽烟,自己想尝试一下。男士则在对话的后期解释了这种心态的原因:as if smoking has anything to dowith progress and self-expression,前面有一大段的解释也是相同的意思,只要抓住了这句话就会知道女生吸烟是由于她们觉得吸烟与成长和自我表现有关系。故选A。
