Passage 2
Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.
If you smoke-particularly cigarettes-you are far more likely than a non-smoker to suffer or die from several major diseases-notably lung cancer.
One smoker in four dies prematurely (过早的) because of his smoking. The risk of dy-ing for a heavy smoker (between the ages of 35 and 55) is roughly equal to the risk run by a non-smoker 10 years older.
Cigarette smoking-and to a lesser degree pipe and cigar smoking--may aggravate (使恶化) or be partly responsible for the development of a wide variety of other diseases, which include cancers of the mouth and throat, peptic ulcers (胃溃疡), and loss of teeth.
(78) Women who smoke during pregnancy produce babies on average about 5 to 8 ounces lighter than those who don’t.
Take lung cancer for example.
Britain’s lung cancer figures are the highest in the world, and still rising. Ninety peo-ple die every day, 33,000 in 1969. Almost all these deaths can be attributed directly to to-bacco smoking. (79) The prospects of a cure for lung cancer are, at present, remote, and it is impossible to estimate when, if ever, someone will find one. You would be foolish to rely on someone finding a cure before you needed it.
One man in eight who die between the ages of 35 and 64 is killed by lung cancer. The figures for women in this age group are lower, about 1 in 20. This is partly because women smoke less, and have not smoked as long. But the figures are still very high.
6.

A is the major cause of death between the ages of 35 and 55
B is most often caused by smoking

8.
The cure for lung cancer______.

C is unknown at present
D will be found before you need it

倒数第二段最后一句，应该注意选项A中before long的意思是不久以后，和原文意思相反。
9.
The passage suggests that women______.
A smoke as much as men
B react better than men to smoking
C are affected by smoking only during pregnancy
D run the same risks as men if they smoke
答案:D
本题可以用排除法：妇女吸烟少于男性，妇女对于烟草的反应不会比男性好，妇女吸烟受影响并不限于怀孕期间。
