题文
阅读理解。 A ban on smoking in public places has come into effect on May 1,2011 in China-home to one third ofthe world's smokers.
The ban is aimed at controlling the number of deaths from smoking-related diseases, running at a
million deaths a year. That figure is predicted to double by 2020. The new smoking ban is an attempt to
prevent that prediction coming true.
The new rules forbid people from smoking in places like hotels, railway stations or theatres, but not
including the office. Employers can warn their staff of the dangers of smoking but cannot forbid them from smoking at their desks.
But the new rules have been criticized because they do not describe in detail the punishments for
businesses or individuals who flout them. Quite many smokers do not seem to take much notice of them.
Often you find people smoking at next table while you are eating your meal or having a drink in a bar. In
bus stops as well as in railway stations smoking can also be seen here and there. Business owners are also angry at the efforts to force them to ban smoking on their premises (经营场所), because many customers refuse to go to restaurants or places of entertainment where smoking is forbidden.
It appears that many Chinese people are unaware of the dangers of smoking. Research suggests that
only one in four knows the harm cigarettes can cause. Officials say they have to try to persuade people
not to smoke to try to reduce the numbers dying from smoking-related diseases. At the same time,
however, the local governments make a lot of money from the sales of cigarettes by the state-owned firm
that makes and sells tobacco products throughout the country.1. From May 1, 2011, it is forbidden to smoke ______.A. at the restaurant

【题型说明】
该类文章内容涉及到人们的言谈举止、生活习惯、饮食起居、服饰仪表、恋爱婚姻、消遣娱乐、节日起源、家庭生活等。文章篇幅短小，追根溯源，探索各项风俗的历史渊源，内容有趣。命题也以送分题为主，如事实细节题、语义转换题、词义猜测题和简单推理判断题等。虽然这类文章读起来感觉轻松，试题做起来比较顺手，但绝不能掉以轻心。因为稍不留神，就会丢分。
【备考提醒】
为了保证较高准确率，建议同学们做好以下几点：
1、保持正常的考试心态。笔者在教学中发现，越是容易的试题，同学们越是容易失分。为什么呢？因为在这种情况下，同学们极易产生麻痹思想，认为题目好做，就不引起高度重视，于是思维不发散、不周密。而命题人就是利用同学们的这一弱点，设计陷阱题。所以，无论试题难易与否，我们都要保持正常的考试心态。试题容易，不欣喜；试题难，不悲观。
2、根据前面讲到的方法，认认真真、细细心心做好事实细节题。
3、做好语义转换题。这类题是根据英语中一词多义和某些词语在文中能表达一定的修辞意义的原则而设计的。要求同学们解释某生词的含义，确定多义词或短语在文中的意思，确认文中的某个代词所指代的对象，或者对英语中特有的表达、格言、谚语进行解释。这种题要求同学们一定要根据上下文猜测词义或理解句子，切不可望文生义。
4、做好简单推理判断题。简单推理判断题要以表面文字为前提，以具体事实为依据进行推理，做出判断。这种推理方式比较直接，只要弄清事实，即可结合常识推断出合理的结论。
