27、failing to enjoy everyday life C The poorer mental function seen among alcoholics，many of whom also regularly smoke cigarettes, may be partly due to the long-term effects of nicotine(尼古丁), new research suggests.“People who are also smokers are at a much higher risk.” Dr. Jennifer M. Glass，of the Uni
28、versity of Michigans Addiction Research Center said. “Cigarette smoking has bad effect on IQ and thinking.”she said.This finding may seem counterintuitive (违反直觉的), since many smokers show that they feel quicker and focused after smoking. Indeed, research shows that improved mental functioning is one
29、 of the immediate effects of nicotine exposure. Chronic(长期的) smoking, however, is known to have the opposite effect.Studies show that up to 87 percent of alcoholics smoke cigarettes. Yet, few studies have looked into cigarette smoking as a factor that might explain the cognitive(认识的) lack reported a
30、mong alcoholics. To search for that association, Glass and her colleagues examined brain function among 172 men from the same area, including 103 men who abused alcohol. The team found that men with higher scores on the lifetime alcohol problems scale (LAPS) and those who reported a higher number of
31、 pack - years of smoking both had lower IQ scores. Upon further research, the researchers found that smoking also appeared to be independently associated with weaker word and space reasoning. Thus, though smoking did not account for all of the decreased mental functioning observed among the alcohol
32、abusers, it did seem to account for some of the effects, the report indicates.27. What is the main idea conveyed in the new research? AAlcohol abuse should take the blame for peoples poorer mental function. BCigarette smoking does have bad effect on mental function. CIn most cases alcoholics are als
33、o heavy smokers. DNon-smokers enjoy better mental function.28. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 imply? ALong-lasting smoking harms mental functioning.

34、feel quicker and more focused after smoking.29. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true? ACigarette smoking is not linked to reasoning. BLower scores on the LAPS are related to lower scores in IQ. CNicotine exposure results in alcoholics in the long run. DExposure to nico
35、tine can contribute to better mental functioning temporarily.30We can infer from the passage that _.
