| Part 3. Read the passage then choose the best answer to each sentence (5,0 ms)
Statistics regarding cigarette smoking are anything but encouraging. The Federal Trade commission recently announced that in 1980 Americans purchased 628,2 billion cigarettes, an appallingly greater number than ever before. The average containing was less than 15 milligrams of tar. In 1968, the average tar content was 22 milligrams. Despite the fact that every cigarette pack has the printed warning from the Surgeon General, those who still smoke are smoking more heavily. Many people have forsworn smoking in fear of lung cancer. The American Cancer Society reports that death rates from lung cancer have escalated, whereas those for other major cancers have levelled off or declined. Last year 111,000 Americans died of lung cancer, while it is estimated that 117,000 will succumb this year. Lung cancer heads the list in killing 35 percent of males who die from cancer. Lung cancer accounts for 17 percent of women’s cancer deaths. An estimated 440,000 deaths from cancer will occur this year, 9,000 more than the previous year. Lung cancer accounts for two thirds of the increase. Although many cancer patients have survived the disease, the prognosis for lung cancer patients is most disheartening.
