【解析】

本文主要讲述吸烟的危害与青少年开始吸烟的原因，并呼吁人们要知道吸烟的危害，不要吸烟。

【1】句意：你知道每天都有人死于吸了来自别人香烟的烟吗？

from来自；with和，具有；to向，到。此处表示来自别人香烟的烟，即二手烟。故选A。

【2】句意：烟草烟雾含有43种可能致癌的成分。

produce生产；lead通向，导致，常与to搭配；cause造成，引起。根据常识可知，烟草含有致癌的成分。cause常指导致不好的结果。故选C。

【3】句意：如果吸烟者在小时候就知道这些事实，他们可能永远不会开始吸烟。

facts事实；information信息；message消息。根据前文可知，每天有11000人死于吸烟，每天都有人死于吸了来自别人香烟的烟以及烟草烟雾含有致癌的成分，这些都是事实。故选A。

【4】句意：大多数吸烟者在青少年时期都会尝试他们的第一支烟。

theirs他们的，名词性物主代词；their他们的，形容词性物主代词；themselves他们自己，反身代词。cigarette是名词，应用形容词性物主代词修饰。故选B。

【5】句意：通常，他们开始吸烟是因为他们认为吸烟会让他们看起来更成熟。

easy-going随和的；hard-working努力的；grown-up成熟的。结合句意可知，吸烟会让人看起来更成熟。故选C。

【6】句意：烟草公司从不向青少年讲香烟的真相。

never从不；often经常；always总是。根据前文“One of the biggest problems is cigarette advertisements.”可知香烟广告是个大问题，因为烟草公司从不向青少年讲香烟的真相。故选A。

【7】句意：年轻人看了电视上的广告，或是看了人们骑马或参加摇滚乐队的海报后，常常认为吸烟一定很酷。

need需要；may也许，可能；must一定。根据前文“After watching the advertisements on TV or looking at the posters in which people ride horses or play in a rock band”可知，青少年看了电视上的广告及人们骑马或参加摇滚乐队的海报，一定觉得吸烟是很酷的。故选C。

【8】句意：可悲的是，一旦一个人开始吸烟，就很难戒烟。

give up放弃；put up张贴；look up查阅。根据后文“And often, the teenagers regret the decision to start smoking later in life.”可知，青少年后悔吸烟，因为一旦一个人开始吸烟，就很难戒掉了。故选A。

【9】句意：大多数青少年开始吸烟是因为他们受到朋友或香烟广告的影响。

so所以；although尽管；because因为。结合句意，后一句是表达前一句的原因，故用连词because引导原因状语从句。故选C。

【10】句意：青少年需要知道香烟对他们的健康多么有害。

what什么；how怎样；if如果。分析句子结构，空格处引导宾语从句，且从句是感叹句；bad是形容词，此句型为how＋形容词＋主＋谓＋其它。故选B。

完形填空题与单项选择题不同，它给出的是一篇意思较为完整的短文。做该题型试题时，首先应跳过空格通读全文，以全文为背景，联系句子的上下文进行推理和判断，可从选项中选出一项进行试填。考生可以从词义用法、固定搭配、语法、逻辑推理和上下文的联系等方面去考虑。例如小题4考查语法知识，即形容词性物主代词修饰名词。最后应再把全文通览一遍，细心检查所选答案能否使短文上下连贯，前后呼应，词句通顺，使短文意思完整。检查时还应从语法、惯用法、逻辑推理和事情发生的情节等方面进行考虑，以达到准确无误之目的。
