　　A ban on smoking in public places has come into force in China – home to a third of the world's smokers．

　　The move is aimed at controlling the number of deaths from smoking-related diseases, running at a million a year．

　　But the rules have been criticized, because they do not include punishments for those who choose to ignore them．

　　Many business owners hate rules that force them to ban smoking on their premises(经营场所)because many customers do not like the rules and complain．

　　The rules do not allow smoking in places like restaurants, hotels, railway stations or theatres, but not at the office．

　　Employers have a duty to warn staff off the dangers of smoking but do not have to forbid them from lighting up at their desks．

　　Shanghai introduced similar rules a year ago, but people do not seem to take much notice of them．Often you find people smoking at the next table while you are eating your meal or having a drink in a bar．The problem is that the rules do not include punishments for businesses or individuals who ignore them．

　　It appears that many Chinese people are unaware of the dangers of smoking．Research suggests that only one in four knows the harm cigarettes of second-hand smoke can cause．

　　Officials say they have to try to persuade people not to smoke to reduce the numbers dying from smoking-related diseases．

　　At the same time the government makes a lot of money from the sales of cigarettes by the state-owned firm that makes and sells all tobacco products throughout the country．

　　Watching 3D films such as Avatar could give some viewers headaches, experts have warned．

　　The success of James Cameron's science-fiction blockbuster(卖座的大片), which has already taken more than ＄1 billion(￡600 million)at the box office, is fuelling a surge in popularity for three-dimensional movies and new 3D television sets．

　　But prolonged viewing may result in an aching head, according to Dr Michael Rosenberg, an ophthalmology(眼科学)professor at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago．

　　He said："There are a lot of people walking around with very minor eye problems, for example a minor muscle imbalance, which under normal circumstances the brain deals with naturally．"

　　Watching a 3D movie confronts viewers with an entirely new sensory experience．"That translates into greater mental effort, making it easier to get a headache," he said．

　　Dr Deborah Friedman, a professor of ophthalmology and neurology(神经学)at the University of Rochester Medical Center in New York, said："If your eyes are a little off to begin with then it's really throwing a whole degree of effort that your brain now needs to exert．This disparity for some people will give them a headache．"

　　Experts say there are no studies tracking how common it is to get a headache after watching a 3D film．

　　Rick Heineman, a spokesman for RealD, which provides 3D equipment to cinemas, said headaches and nausea were the main reasons 3D technology never took off before．

　　But he said new digital technology addresses many of the problems that had previously caused sore heads．

(1)

What can we learn from what Dr Michael Rosenberg said?
[　　]
A．	A lot of people prefer walking around with very minor eye problems to sitting silently watching 3D films．
B．	The brain can deal with very minor eye problems under normal circumstances naturally．
C．	A lot of people haven’t got very minor eye problems when viewing films under normal circumstances．
D．	People come into very minor eye problems and a minor muscle imbalance when watching 3D films．

(2)

What does the underlined word “prolonged” in the 3rd paragraph mean?
[　　]
A．	continuous
B．	constant
C．	regular
D．	long-time

(3)

According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
[　　]
A．	It has taken less than ＄1 billion to make the popularity of three-dimensional movies and new 3D television sets．
B．	Watching a 3D movie leaves viewers confronted with an entirely new sensory experience．
C．	There are studies tracking how common it is to get a headache after watching a 3D film．
D．	Rick Heineman said that 3D technology would never take off headaches and nausea in future．

(4)

What’s the main idea of the passage?
[　　]
A．	The expert warns the readers not to watch 3D films because of resulting in an aching head．
B．	New digital technology gives viewers headaches and eye problems．
C．	The experts are studying how to get rid of many of the problems that have previously caused sore heads．
