解析

试题分析：文章大意：本文叙述了吸烟的人成瘾的原因以及吸烟的害处。香烟里有一种叫作尼古丁的毒。许多人刚开始吸烟，感到难受，过了一些日子他们就习惯了尼古丁。然后离不开它了。吸烟容易引起癌症和心脏病。但是戒烟很难，很多人戒了烟不久有吸起来了。
小题1:根据第一段的I tried to quit (放弃) smoking in my hometown, but it was impossible.和Here in the United States, not as many people smoke.可知Ali因为家乡的人都吸烟，所以戒烟是不可能的，比较一下，在美国，吸烟的人没那么多，因此可以推测此处要说戒烟要容易。故选A。
小题2:根据第二段的They know it can cause cancer and heart disease. 可知吸烟的人知道吸烟有害健康。故选E。
小题3:根据第三段的这些时间短语 In a few days, Later,可知暗示将按来描述，所以此处应是刚开始（first）。故选D。
小题4:根据最后一段的Many people who quit will soon smoke again.可知戒了烟的人不久很快又开始吸烟，因此此处要说戒烟很难。故选B。
小题5:根据最后一段的Soon they become smokers again. 可知他们有成为烟民，没有有效的戒烟方法，因此说，最好的方法就是一开始就不吸烟。故选G。
