Stopping cigarette smoking has become a big problem for all governments. In democratic countries, the economic strength of the tobacco industry is such great that measures taken by【M1】______ governments to protect the rights of non-smokers cannot be applied efficiently. In some undemocratic countries, on the other【M2】______ hand, governments cannot be trusted and they lack the motivation to deal with the problem. However under any political system,【M3】______ social conditioning and chemical habit make banning tobacco a【M4】______ formidable task and one that would take a long time. Yet, current information campaigns are failing as worldwide use increases faster than the population. Totally banning cigarette smoking so far as has been unsuccessful in all countries. An【M5】______ alternative approach includes neither the prohibition of smoking in【M6】______ the workplace and public buildings or the strict limitation of smoking to specific areas. This movement may be the greatest【M7】______ success of the information campaign against tobacco. Its leaders insist that despite the continued sale, advertising, and use of tobacco, non-smokers have every right to be exposed to the【M8】______ carcinogens, carbon monoxide, and irritants in tobacco smoke. Such a campaign can have three important effects. First of all, by banning the use of tobacco from places that non-smokers would【M9】______ be exposed, thousands of lives may be saved. Second, by forcing【M10】______ smokers to give up their habit while in the presence of non-smokers will provide them with an added force to quit. And third, by stigmatizing tobacco use as dangerous and antisocial, the campaign for non-smokers rights can accomplish a goal of all anti-smoking information campaigns: to make smoking socially unattractive.
