Dear Mom and Dad,
I'm afraid I have some very bad news for you. I have been very naughty and the school master is very angry with me. She is going to write to you. You must come and take me away from here. She does not want me in the school any longer. The trouble started last night when I was smoking a cigarette in bed. As I was smoking, I heard footsteps coming towards the room .I did not want a teacher to catch me smoking, so I threw the cigarette away. Unfortunately, the cigarette fell into the waste-paper basket. It caught fire.
There was a curtain near the waste-paper basket. It caught fire too. Soon the whole room was burning. The master phoned the fire brigade. The school is a long way from the town and before the fire brigade arrived, the whole school was on fire. The master said that the fire was all my fault and I must pay for the damage. She will send you a bill for about a million dollars.
I'm very sorry for this.
Much love   
Sarah

A new weapon is on the way in the fight against smoking in Europe. Soon when smokers buy cigarettes, they might see a shocking photo of a blackened lung or a cancer patient staring back at them from the packet.

       Some boys may think of smoking as cool and sexy. Their friends won’t agree when they see their packets of cigarettes lying on the table.

The European Union announced on October 22, that it had chosen 42 photos that showed the damage cigarettes could do to the body. It called on member nations to put these pictures on packets to discourage young smokers.

To catch the attention of teenagers, the special packets warn of long-term medical dangers, like cancer. Short-term effects, like bad skin, are also on the list.

“The true fact of smoking is disease, death and horror. That is the message we should send to the young,” said David Byrne, an EU health official. “Hopefully these pictures will shock students out of their love for cigarettes.”

The EU head office hoped the pictures would work better than current written warnings on packs of cigarettes. The warning included “smoking kills” and “smoking can lead to a slow and painful death.”

So far, Ireland and Belgium have shown interest in the photos. Canada has used similar pictures and warnings on cigarette packs since 2000. The country has recently seen a fall in the number of smokers.

According to studies, smoking is the single biggest cause of avoidable death in EU. Every year more than 650,000 smokers die, more than one person a minute.

What would be the best title for the text?

       A. New Ways to Stop Smoking.                         B. Pictures to Shock Smokers.

       C. New Packers of Cigarettes.                            D. Dangers of Smoking.

Which of the following is NOT the true face of smoking?      

       A. Disease.                   B. Death.                      C. Horror.                    D. Happinese.

We can learn from the test that _______.

       A. The EU countries have put the new warning method into practice

       B. only a small number of the EU countries have used the new warning method

       C. the new warning method has worked in some EU countries

       D. countries in the EU still use the old warning method

Which country is most successful in stopping smoking?

       A. Ireland.                    B. Belgium.                  C. Canada.                    D. EU

The underlined sentence in the last paragraph suggests that ________.

       A. It’s hard to stop smoking in EU

       B. deaths caused by smoking could have been avoided

       C. smoking is the biggest cause of deaths in EU

       D. EU has the largest number of deaths caused by smoking
