Ali is from a Middle Eastern country. He now stays in the USA. He smokes a lot of cigarettes every day. He has smoked for nine years. Ali says, “I tried to quit (放弃) smoking in my hometown, but it was impossible. My parents smoke. My brothers smoke. All my friends smoke. At parties and at meetings, almost all the men smoke. Here in the United States, not as many people smoke. ”
Many smokers are like Ali: they want to stop smoking. They know it can cause cancer and heart disease. But it is difficult for them to give up smoking because cigarettes have a drug in them. The drug is nicotine. People who smoke a lot need nicotine.
The nicotine makes him sick. In a few days, the smoker’s body is used to the nicotine, and he feels fine. Later, the smoker needs nicotine to keep feeling fine. Without nicotine, he feels bad.
Many people who quit will soon smoke again. At a party or at work they will decide to smoke “just one” cigarette. Then they will smoke another cigarette, and another. Soon they become smokers again.

E. When a person first begins to smoke, he usually feels terrible.
F. Maybe there is only one easy way to quit smoking: never start.

Answer 1

【答案】C；G；E；A；F
【解析】文章介绍了Ali，Ali是来自一个中东国家。他现在住在美国。他每天抽很多烟。他说他难以戒掉烟，因为香烟中有一种药物是尼古丁容易使人上瘾，最好的方式就是不要吸烟。
①C考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据前几句可知阿里认为他戒不烟是因为身边的人都在抽烟，但是前一句说美国吸烟的人不多，那么应该容易戒烟了。故选C。
②G考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据后一句They know it can cause cancer and heart disease.可知应该选G。
③E考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据后面的The nicotine makes him sick，可知刚刚开始抽烟的人感觉并不好。故选E。
④A考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据后一句，很多戒烟的很快又开始抽烟，说明了戒烟很难。故选A。
⑤F考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据这一段可知戒烟很难，所以最容易的方法就是不要开始抽烟！故选F。
