　　今天的句子：

　　What grabs fewer headlines is that there are plenty of behaviors that require self-control that have held steady or even improved in recent decades. Cigarette smoking has fallen sharply since the Mad Men days. Alcohol consumption peaked in 1980 and has fallen back to the same level as 1960.

　　思考题：

　　The example of Cigarette smoking is mentioned to show that _______

　　(A) The headlines tend to report behaviors that require self-control.

　　(B) Many behaviors requiring self-control have improved during past years.

　　(C) The alcohol consumption has fallen back to the same level as 1960.

　　(D) Cigarette smoking and Alcohol consumption are harmful to health.

　　词汇突破:

　　1. grab 抓 headlines 头条 通常指的就是媒体报道

　　grabs headlines 吸引媒体关注

　　2. plenty of 大量的

　　3. self-control 自制

　　4. Mad Men 这是一部当年热播的美剧《广告狂人》

　　Mad Men days 就是指这部剧集热播的时期(2007年以后的时期)

　　考场上你肯定不知道，但不影响你做题

　　5. peak 动词 到达巅峰

　　6. hold steady 保持稳定

　　所以思考题：

　　The example of Cigarette smoking is mentioned to show that _______

　　这个题目是例证题，答案只能找结论也就是第一句;

　　(A) The headlines tend to report behaviors that require self-control.

　　媒体通常报道需要自制力的行为。

　　(文中没有谈到这个内容)排除

　　(B) Many behaviors requiring self-control have improved during past years.

　　这是对第一句的同义替换;正确!

　　(C) The alcohol consumption has fallen back to the same level as 1960.

　　说香烟消费不是为了说酒精消费。

　　一个例子不是为了说明另外一个例子，而是为了说明结论。

　　这属于答非所问。排除!

　　(D) Cigarette smoking and Alcohol consumption are harmful to health.

　　这是符合常识但是文中没有提到的内容。排除!

　　没懂得可以听一下语音。

　　如果还有不懂的，没事，以后做真题你就明白了。

　　这些都是真题的思路。
