 本期内容：

One of the world's biggest tobacco firms, Philip Morris, has been accused of "staggering hypocrisy1" over its new ad campaign that urges smokers2 to quit. The Marlboro maker3 said the move was "an important next step" in its aim to "ultimately stop selling cigarettes". But Cancer Research said the firm was simply trying to promote its smoking alternatives, such as heated tobacco. The charity said smoking was the leading preventable cause of cancer and it encouraged people to switch away completely from smoking, including through the use of e-cigarettes.
