问题     Many countries will not allow cigarette advertising in their newspaper or on TV — especially【C1】______the advertisements are usually written with young people in mind.【C2】______advertising, the tobacco companies have begun to【C3】______sports events. They give money to football, motor racing, tennis and a number of【C4】______sports【C5】______condition that the name of the cigarette is【C6】______. This is now【C7】______concern, because it does exactly what many【C8】______try to do — suggest that smoking has some connection【C9】______being strong and athletic.
    In all this, the point of view of the non-smokers has to be【C10】______as well: " I【C11】______smoker would stop【C12】______the air. I wish I could eat in a restaurant without having to smell cigarettes smoke. " It has been【C13】______that, in a room where a large number of people are smoking, a non-smoker will breathe in the【C14】______of two or three cigarettes during an evening.【C15】______, non-smokers are now majority in many western countries. More and more people are giving up the habit, discouraged by high prices, influenced by【C16】______advertising or just aware that smoking is no longer really a polite thing to do.
    Faced with【C17】______sales, the western tobacco companies have begun to look outside then-own countries. They have begun advertising campaigns to persuade young people in developing countries that smoking American or British or French cigarette is a sophisticated western habit, which they should copy.【C18】______, more and more young people are spending【C19】______money they have on a product which the West recognizes as unhealthy and no longer wants.

【C17】
选项 A、higher
B、lower
C、better
D、faster
答案B
解析 篇章题。上下文理解题。此句为一过渡句。上一段讲到了吸烟人数减少这一实际情况，那么面对这一情况，烟草公司又采取其他策略。因此，根据上下文，香烟的销售量降低，因此lower“更少，更低”符合题意，为正确答案。higher与lower形成反义，表“更多，更高”，与题意相反，不能选此项。better“更好”、faster“更快”都是说香烟的销售越来越好，与上下文矛盾，都是错误答案。
