Sometime earlier this year I took a trip to England and France to go see some friends in France. It was a wonderful trip, I really loved it. But one thing that struck me, I guess this would strike anyone whenever they travel, is how different cultures are from our own. Not just how different they are but how similar, but I suppose it is the differences that really stand out.
One of the things that struck me very much was the difference in attitudes towards smoking. Many people know there’s a growing antismoking sentiment in Europe. However, when I went to England and France, I got a new perspective on this issue. People seem to smoke anywhere and everywhere, even though antismoking signs are all over public places. I heard several times over the radio about a member of the world cup soccer team who smoked. And people were actually saying, "Well, he shouldn’t be on the team because he’s a bad example for our children." I think, if they want to look at bad examples for their children with smoking, they should just go out on the street, or go into the subways, or look in the mirror, even, because so many of them are smoking in very inappropriate places. I went to a restaurant in London, and they had a buffet There was this one English woman, who had her cigarette in her hand, lit cigarette. She was blowing smoke, and holding her cigarette directly over the buffet food. Actually when I talked to English people later, they, they were pretty shocked too, and they said that’s even rude for even British standards.
It didn’t just make me feel that the Europeans are bad. It also had conversely a positive effect on my attitudes toward American smokers. There are a lot of American smokers who will proclaim their right to smoke whenever they want,[25]but they will follow the rules, generally. In general they do have consideration for other nonsmokers. So this experience in Europe gave me more of a respect for this kind of smokers.
23. What issue surprises the speaker according to his trip to England and France?
24. What did the speaker find in England and France about the smoking issue?
25. What kind of smokers does the speaker respect?
选项
A、People discuss the smoking issue over the radio.
B、Smokers are allowed to smoke anywhere and anytime.
C、People are disagreed to smoke in inappropriate places.
D、Smokers pay no attention to the "no smoking" signs.
答案
D
解析
主讲人提到,欧洲人对吸烟的态度令他印象深刻,在英法旅行时他看到人们随时随地都在吸烟,且对“禁止吸烟”的标识视而不见,D项表述符合题意。A项“人们在电台讨论吸烟这件事”以偏概全,录音中只提到电台节目讨论的是一个吸烟的世界杯足球队队员。B项错误,从“禁止吸烟”标识可以判断英国和法国并不允许人们随时随地吸烟。C项主语不当,是主讲人本人反对随处吸烟行为,并将之告诫英国民众。
