阅读理解Stopping teens from smoking is a big challenge many munities face today. Many munities can only watch without being able to act while local businesses continue to sell tobacco products to children, even under the risk of punishment by law. Recent studies show that a large percentage of teens today are getting their cigarettes from stores, mostly gas stations or convenience stores. As teens continue to be able to buy their own cigarettes, more and more munities begin to punish those who sell cigarettes to the teens. One munity has experienced success in their attempts to stop the sale of tobacco products to children. Woodridge, Illinois, started a program seven years ago which forbade and strictly punished the sale of tobacco products to children. The entire program includes local licensing of vendors (小贩), repeated undercover inspections to see if the sale to children has stopped, and education programs in schools. Woodridge has bee a model munity as other munities are moving to stop teen tobacco use. A recent national study showed that 36.5% of females, and 40.8% of males buy their cigarettes from stores, whether it is a gas station or a supermarket. Hopefully, as more and more sellers see the trouble they face if caught selling to children, they will stop selling. True, tightening down on stores that sell tobacco to children isn’t going to pletely stop the problem of teen tobacco use. Teens continue to get them from other sources. But it definitely does prevent their efforts. With more education in schools, and perhaps stronger punishments for teens caught with tobacco, more and more teens will see the problems with the tobacco usage, and will stop the habit.1.To stop teens from smoking, more and more munities are ________.A.punishing those who sell cigarettes to teens more severelyB.punishing teens caught with tobacco more severelyC.educating those who sell cigarettes about the danger of teen smokingD.stopping the sale of tobacco products in stores2.Which of the following is NOT a way Woodridge uses to stop tobacco sale to children?A.Local licensing to tobacco sale.B.Repeated undercover inspections.C.Education programs in schools.D.Stronger punishment of teens caught smoking.3.It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A.teens can only buy cigarettes from gas stations and convenience storesB.more munities have succeeded in stopping teen tobacco useC.More males than females have the habit of smoking in AmericaD.Punishment alone cannot solve the problem of teen tobacco use4.What attitude does the writer have towards stopping teen tobacco abuse?A.NegativeB.OptimisticC.UncertainD.Uncaring
