Read the following paragraphs in which five people talk about smoking. For questions 61 to 65, match the name of each speaker (61 to 65) to one of the statements (A to G) given below, Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET 1.
Amanda:
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.
Douglas:
If there were some way that a smoker could submit to his habit without affecting others, I’m all for it ! But by the very nature of sucking on a burning tobacco, it is impossible not to affect others nearby. In short, the rights of smokers end when they violate the rights of non-smokers. What’s especially bad is the situation for children of smokers -- they have absolutely no choice but to smell like smokers themselves and to have lungs that are not as healthy as a normal child’s should be.
Brandon:
Despite all the strict laws against smoking, however, statistics here have shown that more young people are lighting up. While it was absolutely a taboo for a woman to smoke before, now it’s quite common to see young girls smoking. Many would even walk around with a lighted cigarette in one hand, behavior which was deemed to be not appropriate for a lady in the old days.
Christopher:
As a smoker, however, I feel terribly pressured. On the one hand, I do feel guilty that the amount of money I spend on cigarettes cinch month, which is quite substantial, could have been put to much better use, but on the other, I feel non-smokers should be more tolerant of us. I can understand the ill-effects of in haling second-hand smoke but not the way some people react when we light up, it’s like they will drop dead any moment if we smoke.
Harrison:
Smoking can provide constant consolation. When I feel worried or nervous, I just get a cigarette and everything seems to get right. After a day’s bard 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 ns.
Now match each of the people (61 to6 5 ) to the appropriate statement.
Note: there are two extra statements.
Statements
[A] Smoking brings many psychological benefits.
[B] A smoker often faces an embarrassed situation.
[C] Smoking is sure to cause diseases.
[D] It’s a short-sighted policy to depend on tobacco for money.
[E] Forbidden fruits always taste sweetest.
[F] Smokers have no rights to smoke for the bad effects on non-smokers.
[G] It’s doubtful whether there is link between smoking and cancer.

解析
从Christopher讲的第二句话On the one hand,I do feel guilty that the amount of money I spend on cigarettes each month,which is quite substantial,could have been put to much better use,but on the other,I feel non-smokers should be more tolerant of us.可概括出他的心情,吸烟的人钱花得冤,却又不得不花,同时还受到不吸烟者的责备,深处两难的境地。
