Read the texts from an article in which 5 people talked about smoking. For questions 61 to 65, match the name of each person to one of the statements ( A to G) given below. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.
Hadley:
If you smoke and you still don’t believe that there’s a definite link between smoking and bronchial troubles, heart disease and lung cancer, then you are certainly deceiving yourself. Just have a look at those people in hospital with these diseases and count how many of them do not smoke, you may be surprised at the number. Even these few people might be’ passive smokers without realizing it.
Randy:
Tobacco is a wonderful commodity to tax. It’s almost like a tax on our daily bread. In tax revenue alone, the government of Britain collects enough from smokers to pay for its entire educational facilities. So while the authorities point out ever so carefully that smoking may be harmful, it doesn’t do to shout too loudly about it.
Sampson:
The advertising of tobacco is one of the problems. We are never shown pictures of real smokers coughing up their lungs early in the morning. That would never do. The advertisements always depict handsome, clean-shaven young men. They suggest it is manly to smoke, even positively healthy ! Smoking is associated with the great open-air life, with beautiful girls, true love and togetherness. What utter nonsense!
Rowley:
Of course tobacco can help government to raise money. However, while money is eagerly collected in vast sums with one hand, it is paid out in increasingly vaster sums with the other. Enormous amounts are spent on cancer research and on efforts to cure people suffering from the disease. Countless valuable lives are lost. In the long run, there is no doubt that everybody would be much better-off if smoking were banned altogether.
Bernice:
Smoking can provide constant consolation. When I feel worried or nervous, I just get a cigarette and everything seem to get right. After a day’s hard work, the thing I want to do most is smoking. It can be even better with a cup of coffee. It’s so enjoyable and relaxing that it relieves stresses of every day life. So why bother to ban it and take the pleasure from us?
Now match each of the persons to the appropriate statement.
Note: There are two extra statements.
Statements
A. Smoking brings many psychological benefits.
B. Tobacco is an important source of income to the government.
C. Smoking is sure to cause diseases.
D. It’s a short-sighted policy to depend on tobacco for money.
E. The advertisement for it is dishonest and harmful.
F. The tobacco industry makes high-quality advertisement for smoking.
G. It’s doubtful whether there is link between smoking and cancer.
Rowley
