Previous studies have shown that watching screen smoking【C2】______parts of the brain, but the new research is the first to show that the【C3】______act of lighting up becomes automatic too. " What is particularly【C4】______about these findings is that viewing movie smoking activated part of the brain【C5】______in understanding and planning actions," says lead author Dylan Wagner of Dartmouth College in Hanover.

The findings were closely related【C10】______the earlier work showing that smokers had【C11】______desire to smoke after they’d watched movies.
