Tim McAfee is director of the Center's Office on Smoking and Health, He says the problem is regulationMeaning, the USfederal government does not control e-cigarettes even though they contain liquid nicotineMrMcAfee adds that liquid nicotine is a well-known dangerMrMcAfee explains that nicotine poisoning happens when it gets into the skin, gets into the eyes or is swallowedIt can cause stomach pain or a sense of unbalanceAnd too much nicotine can kill,

Tim McAfee says e-cigarettes do not create the level of risk to people that tobacco products doHe notes that almost 500,000 Americans die each year from cigarettes"So, cigarettes are the winner in that contest" E-cigarettes do not contain hundreds of harmful chemicals that are found in real cigarettesSo, the USSurgeon General Boris DLushniak has suggested that e-cigarettes may be a useful tool for adults trying to end their tobacco use

【題目】Perhaps you think you could easily add to your happiness with more money. Strange as it may seem, if you're unsatisfied, the issue is not a lack of means to meet your desires but a lack of desires—not that you cannot satisfy your tastes but that you don't have enough tastes.

Real riches consist of well-developed and hearty capacities (能力) to enjoy life. Most people are already swamped(淹沒) with things. They eat, wear, go and talk too much. They live in too big a house with too many rooms, yet their house of life is a hut.

Your house of life ought to be a mansion (豪宅) , a royal palace. Every new taste, every additional interest, every fresh enthusiasm adds a room. Here are several rooms your house of life should have.

Art should be a desire for you to develop simply because the world is full of beautiful things. If you only understood how to enjoy them and feed your spirit on them, they would make you as happy as to find plenty of ham and eggs when you're hungry.

Literature, classic literature, is a beautiful, richly furnished room where you might find many an hour of rest and refreshment. To gain that love would go toward making you a rich person, for a rich person is not someone who has a library but who likes a library.

Music like Mozart's and Bach's shouldn't be absent. Real riches are of the spirit. And when you've brought that spirit up to where classical music feeds it and makes you a little drunk, you have increased your thrills and bettered them. And life is a matter of thrills.

Sports, without which you remain poor, mean a lot in life. No matter who you are, you would be more human, and your house of life would be better supported against the had days, if you could, and did, play a bit.

Whatever rooms you might add to your house of life, the secret of enjoying life is to keep adding.

【1】The author intends to tell us that____________.

A. true happiness lies in achieving wealth by fair means

B. big houses are people's most valued possessions

C. big houses can in a sense bring richness of life

D. true happiness comes from spiritual riches

【2】The underlined sentence in the second paragraph probably implies that__________.

A. however materially rich, they never seem to be satisfied

B. however materially rich, they remain spiritually poor

C. though their house is big, they prefer a simple life

D. though their house is big, it seems to be a cage
