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] 【C9】
