7．Imagine this：You're at the movies seeing the latest box-office hit．The leading actor Chases down（找到） the film's bad guy before winning over the beautiful leading lady．What does he do next？He sucks on a cigarette．
What's wrong with this picture？Doesn't the beautiful woman see her hero's yellow teeth？Doesn't she smell his smoky breath？And wouldn't the good guy have trouble chasing，since smoking causes a person to cough？
But you don't see any of that when someone smokes cigarettes in the movies．And there is a lot of smoking in movies．Actors light up in more than 50percent of youth-rated （G，PG，PG-13）movies，according to the American Legacy Foundation，which aims to put an end to smoking among young people．That means that Hollywood is showing 14 billion images of smoking to young people every year．
All that exposure to on-screen smoking can influence teens to smoke．The Center for Disease Control and Prevention （CDC） argues that 44percent of teens who begin smoking do so because they've seen smoking in movies．The CDC reports that teens are two to three times more likely to start smoking after seeing repeated smoking scenes in movies than teens who are lightly exposed to smoking in movies．
Several organizations are working to remove smoking in youth-rated movies．And adults are not the only ones who care about this issue．Many teens are actively involved．Livia Clandorf，16，of Chatham，New York，is a member of Reality Check，an organization that educates teens about what it considers to be the manipulative（巧妙處理的）practices of tobacco companies．Livia participated in an event called a"movies stomp（跺腳）．"Reality Check rents out a movie theater and screens a youth-rated film that shows smoking．Every time audience members see smoking，they stomp their feet and show disapproval by shouting"boo"．

解答 28．D推理判斷題． 根據(jù)第二段的一系列的問句What's wrong with this picture？Doesn't the beautiful woman see her hero's yellow teeth？Doesn't she smell his smoky breath？And wouldn't the good guy have trouble chasing，since smoking causes a person to cough？這張照片怎么了？美女沒有看到她主人公的黃色牙齒嗎？難道她沒有聞到他那股冒煙的氣息嗎？那個好男人難道不會因為吸煙引起一個人咳嗽而很難追上他嗎？可以看出作者對于這幅圖片是不合理的，所以答案選D．
29．B 猜測詞義題．And there is a lot of smoking in movies電影里有很多抽煙的地方．．Actors light up in more than 50percent of youth-rated （G，PG，PG-13）movies，可以猜測本句中演員是在點燃煙吸煙的意思，所以答案選B．
