The antismoking lobby succeeded __(26)__ people knew without being told that cigarettes were killing their friends and families. They demanded hard data about the risks of breathing in secondhand smoke. They disbelieved glib assurances that cigarettes were __(27)__ and that the right to smoke __(28)__ the right to breathe clean air. More important, antismoking activists changed our idea of what smoking is all about. They uncooled the cigarette companies and their brands, forever __(29)__ smoking and death in all of our minds. It was, perhaps, the first victory in the fight for our mental environment—an ecology as rife with __(30)__ as any befouled river or cloud of smog.

請觀察空格前面的動詞「disbelieved(不相信)」以及受詞「assurances(保證)」。如果我們現在討論的是一種已經被證實會損害健康的產品,而你現在「拒絕相信」業者對這項產品的說辭,你覺得業者通常會用什麼樣的形容詞來美化該產品,好讓大眾覺得使用它也沒關係呢?

前後文的語意轉折與立場判斷
太棒了!你能精準捕捉到文中的語氣轉折,選出 (A) safe 是非常正確的判斷。這題的關鍵在於動詞 disbelieved(不相信)以及形容詞 glib(花言巧語的)。當反吸菸運動者「不相信」那些關於香菸的說法時,代表那些說法必定是與事實(吸菸有害健康)相反的過度美化。因此,菸商試圖說服大眾香菸是「安全無虞」的,正好與後文提到的風險與死亡形成強烈對比。
