【正确答案】This chart demonstrates the rates of smoking in Someland for men and women in every five years between 1960 and 2000. The rates of female smokers show an overall tendency of increase in the first 15 years. The figure started to take off from the bottom of 10% and then increased dramatically in 1965, reaching 20%. From 1965 to 1970, the figure remained stable at about 20%. In 1975 it maintained another prominent increase to 30%. During 1975 and 1990, it fluctuated slightly at 30% before suffering a loss from about 30% in 1990 to 20% in 2000. The rates of male smokers show a general tendency of decrease during the 40 years. The rate started at the peak of 60% in 1960. But from 1960 to 1985, it drops from 60% to 40%. The figure stayed at 40% in 1985 and 1990 before decreasing sharply to about 30% in 1995. In 2000 the rate falls to about 25% which is still above the rate of female smokers—20%. According to this chart, we can easily draw a conclusion that with men's awareness of the harm of smoking being raised, a lot of male smokers had got rid of smoking during 1960 and 2000. We can also infer from the chart that many women take on smoking in the years of 1960 and 1970 probably because they want to follow suit or to show their social status. But the decrease of rate from year1975 to 2000 maybe result from the ban on tobacco advertisement and a rise in women's awareness of the bad effects of tobacco. To summarize, people's awareness has been raised in the 40 years and plenty of people have stopped smoking. The government should continue the ban on tobacco advertisement and strengthen its role in promoting the logo "smoking is bad for your health".
