Since 1939, numerous studies have been conducted to determine whether smoking is a health hazard. The trend of the evidence has been consistent and indicates that there is a serious health risk. Research teams have conducted studies that show beyond all reasonable doubt that tobacco smoking is associated with a shortened life expectancy.
Cigarette smoking is believed by most research workers in this field to be an important factor in the development of cancer of the lungs and cancer of the throat and is believed to be related to cancer of some other organs of the body. Male cigarette smokers have a higher death rate from heart disease than non-smoking males. Female smokers are thought to be less affected because they do not breathe in the smoke so deeply.
Apart from statistics, it might be helpful to look at what tobacco does to the human body. Smoke is a mixture of gases, vaporized chemicals, minute particles of ash and other solids. There is also nicotine, which is powerful poison, and black tar. As smoke is breathed in, all those components from deposits on the membranes of the lungs. One point of concentration is where the air tube and bronchus divides. Most lung cancer begins at this point.
Filters and low tar tobacco are claimed to make smoking to some extent safer, but they can only slightly reduce, not eliminate the hazards.
It is easy to determine whether smoking is hazardous.
A.Right
B.Wrong
C.Not mentioned

A The new film industry is not expected to make big profits immediately.
B The new film industry has resulted in some criticism of the island's government.
C It was initially difficult to persuade film-makers to use the island.
D The island is already able to compete with other film- making centres.
E Film-makers are able to find a wide range of settings for their films on the island.
F More investment is planned as the new film industry becomes established.
G Financial reasons have made film companies see the island as a good place to make new films.
H The island's inhabitants are keen to be involved with the new film industry.
TREASURE ISLAND
Only 73,000 people live on the Isle of Man, but several thousand of them have registered with Jay-Dee Promotions. This is the casting and extras agency John Banks and his wife Pat run to service tile film industry that has suddenly taken off on the island. Banks does not know exactly how many clients he has—he is too busy to count them. And Jay-Dcc is only one of three such agencies that have sprung up in the last year or two.
【B1】 __________
Until recently the island's principal contributions to cinema were a comedy about motorcycle racing, and Tile Man.am ah, one of Alfred Hitchcock's silent movies. But producers have now discovered an important reason to undertake the inconvenient voyage to the middle of the Irish Sca-money. In the past couple of years, the Isle of Mall government has lent over £6.5 million of public money to film companies. If a film is a success then the Isle of Man will receive a share of the profits. This has turned the island into an offshore I folly wood.
【B2】 __________
Only one film was made in 1995, two in 1996, but there were no fewer than eleven in the following year. However, from the beginning, the Isle of Man government has followed the strategy of Hollywood, where the role of thumb is that for every ten films, seven will lose money, one will cover its costs, one will provide modest returns, and the tenth, it is hoped, will be an enormous hit.
【B3】 __________
An island 45 kilometres long, with no history of film production, is suddenly turning out the same number of fins as the Scottish film industry, which has a huge pool of local talent and an infrastructure that has evolved over the years. However, it was always the intention of the Isle of Man government to lure productions away from England, Scotland and Ireland.
【B4】 __________
Producers have suddenly discovered the affluent little holiday island to be the perfect location for seemingly any film. It has doubled for Cornwall, Hamburg, Sydney Harbour in the nineteenth century, rural Ireland and inner- city England. It has even attracted a new production of Treasure island. Geographical specifics did not seem to be uppermost in the mind of the film's producer: 'We gambled with the fact that we would be able to have enough sunny days to be able to do the tropical island part.'
【B5】 __________
Tile Isle of Man film initiative was inspired not by vague dreams of glory, but by hopes of boosting the economy. Its tourist industry has been in decline for twenty years and it was thought that a hit film would help it. One of the early objectives was simply to demonstrate to a doubtful fin industry that it was possible to make feature films on the island.

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(难以置信的) important today.
Because they mean that yours is the 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(转移) of millions of dollars from scientific research on the causes and cures of diseases which, when all is said and done, still strike the nonsmoker as well as the smoker. One prominent(卓越的) health organization, to cite(引证) but a single instance, now spends 28 cents of every publicly contributed dollar on "education" (much of it in antismoking propaganda)and only 2 cents on research.
There will always be some who want to build wails, 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 number who know that walls are only temporary(暂时的) 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.
What does the word "wall" used in the passage mean?
A.Anti-smoking propaganda.
B.Diseases striking nonsmokers as well as smokers.
C.Rules and regulations that prohibit smoking.
D.Separation of smokers from nonsmokers.
