The investigators found survey participants by randomly dialing New York City phone numbers and screened potential respondents for Manhattan residents living in areas close to the World Trade Centre. Interviews were conducted with 988 individuals between October 16 and November 15,2001. Participants were asked about their cigarette smoking, alcohol drinking, and marijuana use habits before and after September 11. During the week prior to September 11,2001, 22.6% of the participants reported smoking , cigarettes 59.1% drinking alcohol, and 4.4% using marijuana. After September 11th, 23.4% reported smoking cigarettes, 64.4% drinking alcohol, and 5.7% smoking marijuana. Among those who smoked, almost 10% reported smoking at least an extra pack of cigarettes a week and among those who drank alcohol, more than 20% reported imbibing at least one extra drink a day.
The researchers found that people who reported an increase in substance abuse were more likely to suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and from depression. People who reported an increase in cigarette smoking or marijuana use were also more likely to have both PTSD and depression, while those who reported an increase in alcohol use were more likely to have depression only. Persons who were living closer to the World Trade Centre were more likely to increase their cigarette smoking, but other factors such as being displaced from home, losing possessions during the attacks, or being involved in the rescue efforts were not consistently associated with increased substance use. Symptoms of panic attack were associated with an increase in the use of all substances.
Increase in substance abuse did not differ significantly between men and women or among racial or ethnic groups. Demographic factors such as age, marital status, and income seemed to play a more critical role in determining if the events of September 11th led to an increase in substance use.
The survey results suggest that the largest increase in substance use was ______ .
A．alcohol
B．marijuana
C．cigarettes
D．cocaine

Almost one third of the nearly 1,000 persons interviewed reported an increased use of alcohol, marijuana, or cigarettes following the September 11th attacks. The largest increase was in alcohol use. 1About one fourth of the respondents said they were drinking more alcohol in the weeks after September 11; about 10% reported an increase in smoking, and 3.2% said they had increased their use of marijuana.

听力原文： One year after the September 11th attacks on New York and Washington, some of the changes are all too obvious. This is now a very security conscious nation. The feeling of safety provided by two mighty oceans is now gone. Americans no longer get on planes as if they were buses or go to baseball games without a brash from a metal or explosives detector.
But as Dr. Matthew Spalding of the Heritage Foundation points out, alongside fear there is also pride, patriotism and a new sense of purpose.
Dr. Matthew Spalding, "I think Americans have changed considerably. September 11th of last year, flags went up everywhere; a sense of patriotism abounded. A year later it's a sense of a mellowed patriotism, a thoughtful patriotism. Americans aren't afraid to be patriotic and want to think about it.
Secondly, I would say Americans are more thoughtful about foreign policy and domestic policy and, thirdly, I would say Americans are looking inward to things that are important to them: their families, their churches, service in their community--things that in the long run will be good for them and their families and their lives."
