[00:04.60]Lesson 5  1 Dialogue
[00:08.67]Wang Bing has just started working at a film studio¹.He's in Hank's office.
[00:16.12]Do you mind if I smoke?
[00:19.36]I'm sorry,but it's not allowed.
[00:23.22]Would you mind if I smoked in the office next door?
[00:27.77]I'm afraid all these offices are non-smoking² offices.
[00:32.52]Oh dear!Where can I go if I want to smoke a cigarette?
[00:38.30]You can smoke in the entrance hall.Or outside,of course.
[00:43.55]Thanks.I wonder if I could use your phone. Sure.Go ahead.
[00:49.71]Lesson 6  1 Reading comprehension³
[01:00.34]Read the passage to see if these sentences are true:
[01:05.49]1.Chinese people smoke more than British people.
[01:10.84]2.In Britain more women smoke than men.
[01:16.80]NO SMOKING,PLEASE!(1)
[01:21.06]At present about 38% of the Chinese population smoke.89% of smokers⁵ are male.
[01:31.22]Every year,millions of smokers die
[01:35.76]because of illnesses which are caused by smoking tobacco⁶.
[01:40.73]The Chinese government receives a lot of money from sales of tobacco;
[01:46.58]in 1989 it received about 24 billion yuan.
[01:52.54]But in the same year,cigarette smoking cost the government even more money,
[01:58.78]about 28 billion yuan.
[02:02.62]Smokers cost the government a lot of money for two reasons.
[02:07.76]First,money is spent looking after people with illnesses
[02:13.54]which have been caused by smoking.
[02:17.20]Second,many fires are caused by smokers.
[02:22.47]People who smoke in bed often fall asleep while they are smoking.
[02:27.93]The bedclothes catch fire and the whole house may be burnt down.
[02:33.50]China produces one third of the world's cigarettes.
[02:38.64]Each day,about 220 million packets of cigarettes are smoked by Chinese.
[02:46.19]This is good news for the tobacco companies,
[02:50.55]but bad news for the health of the nation.
[02:54.81]Every year,tobacco companies must persuade new people to start smoking cigarettes.
[03:02.07]This is because each year millions of smokers die from the habit.
[03:07.95]In Britain,which has a population of only 58 million people,
[03:14.01]110,000 people die from smoking each year.
[03:19.65]The chance is that one smoker⁴ in four will die from smoking.
[03:25.30]In Britain,sales of cigarettes have been reduced by 30% in the last ten years.
[03:32.85]Just under a third of the population now smokes,about 17 million people.
[03:39.98]In the 16-19 age group,32% of women smoke,compared to 28% of men.
[03:49.43]However,in the 20-24 age group,39% of women smoke and 38% of men.
[03:59.41]The problem is that 300 people are dying⁷ each day
[04:05.47]from illnesses caused by smoking.
[04:09.31]Therefore,if the tobacco companies want to remain in business,
[04:15.19]they have to encourage more young people to start smoking.
[04:20.75]Lesson 7  1 Reading comprehension
[04:31.93]NO SMOKING,PLEASE!(2)
[04:36.30]In Britain,70% of smokers say that they would like to stop smoking,
[04:42.64]and of these smokers,83% have tried more than once to give it up.
[04:48.81]Why do smokers continue to smoke,
[04:52.47]even when they know that the habit may kill them
[04:56.72]or at least cause a serious illness?
[05:00.56]The problem with tobacco is that it contains a drug called nicotine⁸.
[05:06.73]Nicotine is a drug that gets one into the habit of smoking.
[05:11.69]That means⁹ that once you start taking the drug,it is hard to stop.
[05:17.15]When smokers who are used to nicotine go without it for an hour or two,
[05:22.48]they begin to feel bad.
[05:25.83]The body is calling for a new supply of the drug nicotine.
[05:30.79]So they say "I must have a cigarette".
[05:35.15]In fact,they don't need a cigarette.
[05:39.54]All they need is something to make them feel better at that moment.
[05:44.58]One thing that will stop them feeling bad is the drug nicotine,
[05:49.73]which is contained in cigarettes.
[05:53.78]And so their habit of smoking continues.
