[5]The Australian state of Tasmania is considering raising the legal age for buying cigarettes to at least 21 and potentially as high as 25. If the plan goes ahead it will give Tasmania some of the toughest tobacco laws in the world.
The current legal age to purchase, possess or smoke cigarettes in all Australian states is 18. Critics have complained the proposed restrictions would be a violation of civil liberties. Australia already has some of the world’s toughest anti-smoking policies. It introduced so-called plain packaging four years ago, [6]where packs are coloured an identical olive brown and are covered in health warnings that include pictures. The country is also one of the most expensive places in the world to buy cigarettes—from around $15 a pack.
Parts of the world already ban cigarette sales to those under 21, including Kuwait and, from next year, Hawaii. Around one-in-five Tasmanians smoke, with the vast majority taking up the habit before the age of 25. [7]The Tasmanian government proposals are part of a five-year plan to make the state Australia’s healthiest by 2025.
5. What does the state of Tasmania plan to do?
6. According to plain packaging, what should be included in the packs of cigarette?
7. What’s the purpose of the Tasmanian government proposals?
选项
A、To follow the anti-smoking trend in Kuwait and Hawaii.
B、To make Tasmania Australia’s healthiest city by 2025.
C、To ease existing tough anti-smoking policies.
D、To have more tough anti-smoking policies.
答案
B
解析
选项均以To开头,题目可能问的是做某件事的目的。新闻最后提到,塔斯马尼亚政府的提议是五年计划的一部分,目的是在2025年之前将塔斯马尼亚州打造成澳大利亚最健康的州(part of a five-year plan to make the state Australia’s healthiest by 2025),B所述与原文一致。A“跟随科威特和夏威夷的反吸烟潮流”、C“放宽目前已有的苛刻的反吸烟政策”、D“为了制订更多严苛的反吸烟政策”均未在新闻中提到。
