I told it not, my wrath did grow.

Night & morning with my tears:
And I sunned it with smiles,
And with soft deceitful wiles.
And it grew both day and night.
Till it bore an apple bright.

When the night had veild the pole;
In the morning glad I see;
My foe outstretched beneath the tree.

Passage : In previous studies the use of tobacco, especially cigarette smoking, has been
causally linked to several diseases. Such use has been associated which increased deaths
from lung cancer and other diseases, notably coronary artery disease, chronic bronchitis,
and emphysema. These widely reported findings, which have been the cause of much
public concern, have been accepted in many countries by official health agencies, medical
associations, and voluntary health organizations. The potential hazard is great because
these diseases are major causes of death and disability. Another cause for concern is
because deaths from some of these diseases have been increasing with great rapidity.
While part of the rising trend for lung cancer is attributable to improvements in diagnosis,
the evidence leaves little doubt that a true increase in the lung cancer has taken place.
49.Choose the correct thesis statement from the following.
a) Cigarette smoking, has not been causally linked to several diseases.
b) There is increase in death from lung cancer and other diseases not because of
tobacco.

coronary artery disease, chronic bronchitis, and emphysema are not major
causes of death and disability.
