III, Reading the passage carefully and then choose the best
answer A, B, C or D to questions below:
The diseases connected to smoking are a big problem. Doctors think that the
annual medical cost for lung cancer, heart disease, and other illnesses connected to
smoking is between 12 and 35 million pounds.
And smoking costs society money in other ways. Between 27 and 61 billion
pounds are spent each year on sick days when people don't go to work, on wages tat you
don't get when you don't go to work, and on work lost at the company when you are sick.

This money counts the wages from people who die of cancer at young age and stop
paying taxes. This doesn't count fire started by cigarettes, which kill fifteen hundred
people yearly and injury another four thousand. Smoking costs every man, woman and
children in the UK from one hundred and ten to two hundred and fifty pounds each year
in the lost work and wages. When you add another fifty to one hundred and fifty pounds
yearly in insurance cost that comes to one hundred and sixty to four hundred and ten
pounds. If everyone stopped smoking, a family of four could have up to one thousand six
hundred and forty pounds a years more.
Smoking will also cause other problems. People who don't smoke will live longer,
and so they will take money from the government when they are old. But they will also
work for more years and pay more taxes.
In the end, the value of a non-smoking nation is not in pounds. The good health of
the people is the truth value for all of us.
