Passage
Sometime earlier this year I took a trip to England and France because I wanted to go see some friends in France. But one thing that struck me very much was the difference in attitudes towards smoking. To be blunt, people in Europe smoke like chimneys. There are antismoking signs all over the place, but no one seems to pay much attention to them. People seem to smoke anywhere and everywhere, and even though there's antismoking campaigns. In fact, when I was in England there was controversy several times over the radio about, a member of the world cup team, the world cup soccer team, who smoked. And people were actually saying, "Well, he shouldn't be on the team because he's a bad example for our children." If they want to look at bad examples for their children with smoking, they should just go out on the street, or go into the subways, or look in the mirror, even, because so many of them are smoking in very inappropriate places.
So this experience in Europe give me more over respect for people who smoke in this country. There are a lot of American smokers who have attitudes, you know, they will proclaim their right to smoke whenever they want. But they will follow the rules. If there is a no smoking sign, they will go outside. And they will not smoke where they're asked not to smoke. In general, they do have consideration for nonsmokers. They will ask "can I smoke?" Whereas it seems to me at least in Europe that people, just smoked. They didn't ask for permission or anything.
Q1. What does the speaker think about the attitudes toward smoking in Europe?
Q2. What was the result of her experience in Europe?
Q3. What is the talk mainly about?
（注：此篇为样题，仅做参考）
答案&解析：
1. 答案：A
解析：
根据文中To be blunt, people in Europe smoke like chimneys. There are anti-smoking signs all over the place, but no one seems to pay much attention to them.可知，作者认为欧洲人就是“烟囱”一样的烟鬼。他们尽管到处都有禁烟标志，但却没有人注意到。所以，答案为A。
2. 答案：D
解析：
根据文中So this experience in Europe give me more respect for people who smoke in this country.一句及后面的阐述可知，作者认为美国吸烟者更加尊重不吸烟的人的感受，因此她在欧洲旅途中遭遇的经历使得她对国内的烟民更有敬意了，所以，答案为D。
3. 答案：C
解析：
整篇文章从一篇作者先谈了旅途最大的冲击是英国人对待吸烟的态度。因为虽然他们一面非常讨厌明星抽烟，一面自己却到处随意吸烟，还不够不吸烟者的感受。所以，这件事影响到自己对美国烟民的态度，因为他们不会对禁烟标志孰视无睹，同时还会征求同意。所以，本文主要谈的是不同国家烟民对待吸烟的态度最终影响到作者态度的改变。所以，答案为C。
