Now in the 1990s we are becoming frightened by the rapid increase in amphetamine—type(安非他明类) stimulants, not only in the rich countries of the world but the whole world, ”said the official of WHO.

　　When Johnny Cash sings, people listen．His big, deep voice rumbles out of radios and jukeboxes across North America．His records sell by the million．Country music fans everywhere know his big hits．They love songs like “Hey Porter” “Ring of Fire” and “Folsom Prison Blue”．

　　Johnny Cash sings about a hundred concerts a year．People like what they hear－and what they see, too．Rugged and big-shouldered, the singer stands six-two without his black boots on．He has a two-hundred-pound package of muscle and talent．And that scar(疤痕)on his cheek? It’s a bullet hole, of course!

　　In the minds of most people, Johnny Cash is “Mr．Tough(violent)Guy”．He’s an ex-drug addict(上瘾者)who was once put in prison．His grandmother was an Indian．To keep from starving, he once had to live on wild rabbits killed from forty feet away with a knife．Some people say he even killed a man．

　　In fact, most of the Johnny Cash story is just that－a story．True, years ago he had a “drug habit” for a short time．He “popped” pills．But he never used heroin or other “hard” drugs．Sometimes he’d go wild and get locked up for a few hours．But he never served a prison sentence．There’s no Indian blood in his veins．He’s been a killer only in song．As for the“ bullet hole”, it’s an old scar left by a doctor who opened a cyst(囊肿)．

　　People who know Johnny Cash well say he’s a“ gentle guy”, a “generous guy”－anything but a “tough guy”．How did the stories get started? Some of them, like the story about the “Indian grandmother”, he made up long ago to add excitement to his career．Others, like the“ bullet hole”, simply got started．Now there’s little the singer can do to change people’s minds．“They just want to believe it, ” he says．

(1)

Johnny Cash is a favorite of many _________．

[　　]

A．

III. 阅读理解
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D选项中，选出最佳选项。
I’ve written 14 movies. My characters smoke in many of them, and they look cool and glamorous doing it. Smoking was an integral（必需的） part of many of my screenplays because I was a heavy smoker. It was part of a bad-boy image I’d cultivated for a long time— smoking, drinking, partying, rock ’n’ roll.
Smoking, I once believed, was every person’s right. The second-hand smoke was non-existent problem invented by professional do-gooders. I put all these views into my plays.
Remembering all this, I find it hard to forgive myself. I have been an accomplice (帮凶) to the murders of untold numbers of human beings. I am admitting this only because I have made a deal with God. Spare me, I said, and I will try to stop others from committing the same crimes I did.
Eighteen months ago I was diagnosed with throat cancer, the result of a lifetime of smoking. I am alive but disabled. Much of my larynx (喉) is gone. I have some difficulty speaking; others have some difficulty understanding me.
I haven’t smoked or drunk for 18 months now, though I still take it day by day and pray for help. I believe in prayer and exercise. I have walked five miles a day for a year, without missing even one day. Quitting smoking and drinking has taught me the hardest lesson I’ve ever learned about my own weakness; it has also given me the greatest affection and empathy(同感) for those still addicted.
I don’t think smoking is every person’s right anymore. I think smoking should be as illegal as heroin. I’m no longer such a bad boy. I go to church on Sunday. I’m desperate to see my four boys grow up. I want to do everything I can to undo the damage I have done with my own big-screen words and images.
Screen writers know, too, that some movie stars are more likely to play a part if they can smoke —because they are so addicted to smoking that they have difficulty stopping even during the shooting of a scene.
My hands are bloody; so are Hollywood’s. My cancer has caused me to attempt to cleanse me. I don’t wish my fate upon anyone in Hollywood, but I beg that Hollywood should stop putting it upon millions of others.
