The chances are that you made up your mind about smoking a long time ago and decided it’s not for you.
The chances are equally good that you know a lot of smokers—there are, after all about 60 million of them—work with them, and get along with them very well.
And finally it’s a pretty safe bet that you’re open-minded and interested in all the various issues about smokers and non-smokers—or you wouldn’t be reading this.
And those three things make you incredibly important today.
Because they mean that it’s your voice—not the smoker’s and not the anti-smoker’s— that will determine how much of society’s efforts should go into building walls that separate us and how much into the search for solutions that bring us together.
For one tragic result of the emphasis on building walls is the diversion of millions of dollars from scientific research on the causes and cures of diseases which, when all is said and done, still strike the non-smoker as well as the smoker. One prominent health organization, to cite but a single instance, now spends 28 cents of every publicly contributed dollar on "education" (much of it in anti-smoking propaganda) and only 2 cents on research.
There will always be some who want to build walls, who want to separate people from people, and up to a point, even these may serve society. The anti-smoking wall-builders have, to give them their due, helped to make us all more keenly aware of choice.
But our guess, and certainly our hope, is that you are among the far greatest members who know that walls are only temporary at best, and that over the long run, we can serve society’s interest better by working together in mutual accommodation.
Whatever virtue walls may have, they can never move our society toward fundamental solutions. People who work together on common problems, common solutions, can.
In Paragraph 4, "you" refers to______.
选项
A、smokers
B、non-smokers
C、anti-smokers
D、smokers who have quitted smoking
答案
D
解析
指代关系题。you从第一段就开始出现,根据首段中的The chances are that you made up your mind about smoking a long time ago可以得出you应指已经放弃吸烟的吸烟者,所以D正确。
