Smoking is a greater cause of death and disability than any single disease, says the World

Health Organization.

According to their figures, it is responsible for approximately five million deaths worldwide every year.

Tobacco smoking is a known or probable cause of approximately 25 diseases, and even the WHO says that its impact on world health is not fully assessed.

Heart Attack and Stroke

UK studies show that smokers in their 40s and 50s are five times more likely to have a heart attack than non-smokers.

Tobacco contributes to the hardening of the arteries, which can then become blocked and starve the heart of blood flow, causing the attack.

Often, smokers who develop this will require complex and risky heart bypass surgery.

If you smoke for a lifetime, there is a 50% chance that your eventual death will be smoking-related — half of all these deaths will be in middle age.

Smoking also increases the risk of having a stroke.

According to this report, what does the World Health Organization say？

A．Smoking is the greatest cause of death worldwide every year.

B．Smoking is the second greatest cause of death worldwide every year.

C．Smoking is responsible for three million deaths worldwide every year.

D．Smoking is responsible for more than half of all deaths to middle-aged people.

On-the-job smoking is a hot issue for both smokers and non-smokers, and many managers now

see smoking as a productivity(生产力) problem. Although some people question whether smoking really affects one's productivity, it has, in fact, been proven that a smoker costs a company more than a non-smoker. According to Professor William Weis, a smoking employee costs his or her employer about $5,700 more a year than a never-smoker. These costs include medical care, lost earnings and insurance. And absence due to smoking breaks is one of the productivity problems, yet it accounts for a great deal of employer costs.

(78)When the issue of smoking at the workplace is discussed, perhaps the most important problem is the health risk that smoking causes to both smokers and never-smokers. It has long been proven that smoking is linked to lung cancer. Now many health experts warn that passive smoking can cause lung cancer and other illnesses in healthy never-smokers. Passive smoking can be defined as exposure to second-hand tobacco smoke in enclosed areas. Anyone who has been with smokers indeed knows that their smoke can cause eye irritation(刺激), coughing, headaches and throat soreness. While eye irritation may seem a small thing to some smokers, it nevertheless is a problem that occurs every workday in offices and break-rooms and can lead to greater health problems. Employees who do not smoke should not be subjected(遭受) to the risks of passive smoking and need to be able to work in a safe environment. Surgeon General Koop states that the right of the smoker stops at the point where his or her smoking increases the disease risk of those occupying the same environment.

All the following cases are on-the-job smoking except that______.

A．an employer smokes while working in the office

B．a taxi driver smokes while driving the car

C．a worker smokes while working in the workshop

D．a worker smokes while reading in the train
