Each year, a half-million people die from smoking in China which in 1990 overtook the United States
in the number of such deaths. And by the year 2025, 2 million Chinese will die each year from smoking
and related diseases, Professor Wang said when he talked about a report from the World Health
Organization.
With westerners increasingly (日益)dropping the habit, the smoking population in China is on a
constant increase. "In 1964 the smoking population in America was 54 percent, which dropped to 26
percent by the year 1996," Wang said smoking has become a popular game, especially among young
people and women. Wang pointed out that women are more and more the targets (目标) of tobacco
selling. "As China sees repaid changes in women"s role (角色), smoking among women is increasing,
with most new smokers being educated women."
Wang said that in countries such as the United States and Britain where female smoking was popular
long ago, there were more lung cancers caused by smoking than breast cancers (乳腺癌), becoming the
largest cancer-killer of women.
"At present only some 8 percent of Chinese women smoke, which has kept the total smoking
population below 40 percent. If women in China insist on demanding the same rights as men, the figure
will at least double in the present one." Wang said.

| Perhaps once you got free plastic bags when you shopped at the supermarket. But now things have changed already. Since June 1, 2008, China has banned(禁止) its shops and supermarkets providing free plastic bags. Shoppers have to pay for bags if they need them. “We hope it will encourage people to use cloth bags and baskets for their vegetables,” said a spokesman from the Chinese government. “Plastic bags have led to a big waste of energy and on the other hand, they pollute(污染) the air, rivers and soil. It takes around 1000 years for the bags to break down. They are also dangerous to wildlife, which eats them without knowing.” A large number of Chinese people have begun to make their own cloth bags. Li Linwei, a student in Shenyang, Liaoning Province, made a bag out of an old dress of her mother’s. “ I have given it to my grandmother as a Mother’s Day present. From now on, she will use it when she goes shopping.” said the girl. 根据短文内容，回答下列问题。（5分） 1. Since what time, supermarkets have been stopped from providing free plastic bags? 2. Without free plastic bags, what will people use when they go shopping according to the passage? 3. Do plastic bags pollute the environment? 4. How long will it take the plastic bags to break down? 5. What present did Li Linwei give her grandmother on Mother’s Day? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Britain Today Food British people like good food, and more than half of them go to a restaurant every month. Fast food is also very popular— 30% of all adults have a hamburger every three months, but 46% have fish and chips! Sports British people don’t do a lot of sports. Only 17% of people go swimming every week, about 9% go cycling and 8% play golf—and only 6% of people play football( but 32% go to watch it ). Cinema and TV Films are very popular in Britain, and about 60% of people between 15 and 24 go to the cinema every month. At home, men watch TV for about three hours every day — two quarters more than women. Holidays British people love going on holiday, and have 56 million holidays every year. Most of these holidays aren’t in the UK—27% are in Spain,10% are in the USA, and 9% are in France. Maybe this is because the weather in Britain isn’t very good! 小题1:Which food could be more popular among British adults, a hamburger or fish and chips?
