    • True

    • False

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The author suggests that if you still have the desire or temptation to smoke after quitting, it indicates that you are still under the influence of the Smoking Trance.

    True or False: Smoking cessation improves health.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Smoking cessation refers to the act of quitting smoking. Quitting smoking has numerous health benefits, making the statement "Smoking cessation improves health" true. Smoking is a leading cause of preventable diseases such as lung cancer, heart disease, and respiratory issues. When a person quits smoking, their lung function improves, their risk of developing various diseases decreases, and their overall health and well-being improve. Therefore, it is accurate to say that smoking cessation positively impacts health.

    True or False: Smoking is used as a smokescreen to hide from pain, but smoking does not make the pain go away, it only delays it.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Smoking is often used as a coping mechanism to distract oneself from emotional or physical pain. However, it does not actually eliminate the pain, but rather provides a temporary distraction. The act of smoking may provide a sense of relief or relaxation, but the pain will still be present once the effects of smoking wear off. Therefore, smoking can be seen as a smokescreen that temporarily masks the pain, but does not make it go away permanently.

    Within 9 months of quitting smoking, individuals may notice a significant improvement in symptoms such as coughing, sinus congestion, fatigue, and shortness of breath. This is because the body starts to repair itself after quitting smoking, and the respiratory system gradually recovers from the damage caused by smoking. The improvement in these symptoms is a positive indication of the body's healing process and the benefits of quitting smoking.

    How long after your last cigarette does your ability to smell and taste improve?

    • 20 minutes

    • 8 hours

    • 24 hours

    • 48 hours

    Correct Answer
    A. 48 hours
    Explanation
    After quitting smoking, it takes approximately 48 hours for your ability to smell and taste to improve. Smoking damages the taste buds and olfactory receptors, which are responsible for detecting flavors and scents. The chemicals in cigarettes numb these receptors, causing a decrease in sensitivity. Once you quit smoking, the receptors start to heal, and within 48 hours, your sense of smell and taste begin to return to normal.

    • 20 minutes

    • 8 hours

    • 24 hours

    • 72 hours

    Correct Answer
    A. 8 hours
    Explanation
    After smoking a cigarette, carbon monoxide is absorbed into the bloodstream, reducing the oxygen-carrying capacity of red blood cells. However, the body begins to eliminate carbon monoxide fairly quickly. Within 8 hours of quitting smoking, the carbon monoxide level in the blood returns to normal. This is because carbon monoxide has a relatively short half-life in the body, and the lungs are able to efficiently remove it from the bloodstream.

    Correct Answer
    A. Future pacing
    Explanation
    Future pacing is a technique used in NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) that involves envisioning the future as successful and seeing oneself in the desired state of being a non-smoker. It helps individuals create a mental image of their desired outcome and develop a positive mindset towards achieving it.

Future pacing allows individuals to mentally prepare themselves for success and increases their chances of achieving their desired outcome.
