Why do people smoke? One reason is that people become addicted(成瘾) to cigarettes. The addictive substance(物质)in cigarettes is nicotine(尼古丁). When people smoke, the nicotine goes right into the blood stream and makes people feel comfortable. A smoker's body gets used to the nicotine, and if he stops smoking, he feels nervous. Many smokers try to stop smoking but because of the addiction to nicotine they feel so uncomfortable that they often find it too difficult to do so .

Another reason is that people simply enjoy smoking. Having a cigarette for many people means taking a break. For some people  smoking becomes part of certain social rituals (礼仪), for example, sending the cigarette after dinner. Many people enjoy smoking because it gives them something to do with their hands. Reaching for a cigarette, lighting it and flicking (弹掉) the ashes are special comfort in a situation where they feel nervous.

Many people also like the taste of tar (焦油) in cigarettes. However, it is the tar that causes cancer. While governments and health experts have tried to  get people to give up smoking completely, cigarette manufacturers (生产商) have tried to keep selling them by producing cigarettes with less tar. Many people in western countries have welcomed these cigarettes since they found it hard to stop smoking and wanted to reduce the danger to their health.

根据短文内容，完成下列任务。

About one hundred years ago, many educated people spoke French when they met people from other countries. Today most people speak English when they meet foreigners. It has become the new international language. There are more people who speak English as a second language than people who speak English as a first language. Why?

There are many reasons why English has become so popular. One of them is that English has become the language of business. Another important reason is that popular American culture, like movies, music, and McDonald’s has quickly spread throughout the world. It has brought its language with it.

Is it good that English has spread to all parts of the world so quickly? I don't know. It’s important to have a language that everyone has in common. Our world has become global and we need to communicate with one another. On the other hand, English is a rather hard language to learn and it brings its culture with it. Do we really need that?

Scientists have already tried to make an artificial(人造的) language that isn't too difficult and isn’t from any one group’s culture. It is called Esperanto. But it hasn't become popular. Maybe the popularity of English won’t last that long, either. Who knows? There are more people in the world who speak Chinese than any other language. Maybe someday Chinese will be the new international language.

81. What was the world language a century ago?

82. Why has English become an international language today? Give at least two  reasons.

83. What can we get from Paragraph 3?

84. In the last paragraph, what do scientists want to tell us?
