"Can I get a light?" This question is among the most common between smokers. What if this question was to come from an unusual source? In April 2014, the National Health Promotion Foundation uploaded an anti-smoking advertisement onto YouTube. The anti-smoking ad has quickly been known as the "most powerful anti-smoking ad."
The anti-smoking video, called the "Smoking Kid," features children walking up to adult smokers asking for a light. The children in the ad are actors but the adults smoking are unsuspecting participants in the project.
The video begins with the statement "adults know that smoking is harmful, but don’t remind themselves of this fact " Once a "smoking kid" approaches the adults, every adult asked is shocked that a child with a cigarette in hand is asking for a light. The first adult starts by saying, "I’m not giving it to you," and the video goes on to state "every adult filmed said no and reminded the children that smoking is bad."
Before going away, the kid hands each adult a booklet after being turned down for a light. The booklet says, "You worry about me, but why not about yourself?" Each adult looks around for the child as their faces are filled with confusion and discomfort.
The video shows that a few of the smokers quickly threw away their cigarettes or put their cigarettes away, showing that this experiment was affective at that moment.
The most influential element in the ad isn"t the use of children or the responses from the smoking adults. It comes down to something much simpler than that. Why is it that we worry about other people, forgetting to worry about ourselves?

解析

本文主要介绍了一个劝人戒烟的广告，使用儿童演员向成年人借火来告诉我们： Why is it that we worry about other people, forgetting to worry about ourselves?为什么抽烟的人担心别人，却不担心自己？也就是说要为了自己的健康而戒烟。
小题1:C
【试题解析】推理题。根据文章倒数第二段The video shows that a few of the smokers quickly threw away their cigarettes or put their cigarettes away, showing that this experiment was affective at that moment可知很多人都把香烟扔掉了，说明这个广告在那个时候是有效的。故C正确。
小题2:A
【试题解析】推理题。根据本句The children in the ad are actors but the adults smoking are unsuspecting participants in the project.通过上下文的对比可知unsuspecting participants与前面的actor是相反的意思：广告里的孩子是演员，但是抽烟的成年人是不知情的参与者。可知这些成年人事先是不知道拍摄这个广告的。故A正确。
小题3:B
【试题解析】细节题。根据第三段最后2行The first adult starts by saying, "I’m not giving it to you," and the video goes on to state "every adult filmed said no and reminded the children that smoking is bad."可知所有的成年人都拒绝了孩子借火的要求，并告诉孩子抽烟有害。故B项说法是正确的。
小题4:A
【试题解析】主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了一个劝人戒烟的广告，使用儿童演员向成年人借火来告诉我们： Why is it that we worry about other people, forgetting to worry about ourselves?为什么抽烟的人担心别人，却不担心自己？也就是说要为了自己的健康而戒烟。故A正确。
【长难句解析】
1.What if this question was to come from an unusual source?
【翻译】如果这个问题来自一个不同寻常的来源的时候，又会是什么情况呢？
【分析】本句实际上是一个省略句，在what后面省略了would happen.形成What would happen if this question was to come from an unusual source?最后缩略成what if…?要是…又如何？的结构。
2. Why is it that we worry about other people, forgetting to worry about ourselves?
【翻译】为什么我们担心别人，而忘记担心我们自己？
【分析】本句是一个强调句型的特殊疑问句。结合近几年有关高考题的特点，将其变化形式归纳如下：强调句型的一般疑问句形式。一. 句式特征：Is/ Was it +被强调部分+ that…； 二、 结合特殊疑问词构成特殊疑问句形式。句式特征：特殊疑问词+is/was it that…？ 三、 强调句型的反意疑问句形式。句式特征为：It is/was+被强调部分+that…，isn’t / wasn’t it？ 四、强调句型的感叹句形式。句式特征为：what/ how … it is (that) +主语+谓语！
