题目内容
Questions 71-80 are based on the following passage. A federal judge on Monday certified a $ 200 billion class action lawsuit against the tobacco industry for its marketing of light cigarettes. Eastern District of New York Judge Jack B. Weinstein’s 540-page opinion in Schwab v. Philip Morris USA, Inc. , 04-CIV-1945—which included an additional 965 pages of appendices for a total of 1,505 pages-gave tens of millions of smokers an avenue to recover damages from the nation’s largest tobacco companies, including Philip Morris USA Inc. , R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Co. , Lorillard Tobacco Co. , and Liggett Group, Inc. The class will include anyone who purchased light cigarettes from the time tobacco companies began selling them in the 1970s. The judge said he even would consider broadening the class, to encompass smokers of all "low tar" brands, not just light cigarettes. The judge suggested that an expansion of the class could assist the parties in negotiating a global settlement. He set a trial date for January 22, 2007. The plaintiffs intend to seek treble damages. Weinstein has expressed skepticism about the plaintiffs’ theory of damages, which alleges that light smokers were defrauded of billions because they believed they were buying a product of greater value because of its health advantages. The judge also questioned the size of the class, as well as the claim that as many as 90 percent of light cigarette smokers chose the cigarettes because they were less harmful. In his ruling Monday, the judge stressed that while the suit was far from perfect, the evidence was sufficient. He said the jury system—which he described as the "ultimate focus group of the law"—was well equipped to sort out the particulars in accordance with Amendment VII of the U. S. Constitution. Weinstein declined to grant an interlocutory appeal to the 2nd U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals. Theodore M. Grossman of Jones Day in Cleveland, which represents R J. Reynolds, said the defendants would seek a stay and appeal the class certification under Rule 23 (f) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Obviously, the passage states that the lawsuit being briefed is between

某镇鞭炮厂违章生产，冒险作业，导致黑火药与塑料袋摩擦形成高温发生爆炸，造成死亡5人，重伤3人，直接经济损失8.9万余元的严重后果。该厂厂长叶某某的行为触犯《刑法》第187条之规定，构成玩忽职守罪，依法判处叶某某有期徒刑2年，缓刑3年。 1988年3月，叶某某就任该厂厂长后，只讲经济效益，忽视安全生产，一个90多人的鞭炮厂，竟然没有一名安全生产管理人员，安全工作处于无人过问的状况。1988年4月中旬，叶聘请两名无证作业人员为本厂生产“快引”鞭炮，签订了承包合同，此后，对安全生产更是撒手不管。5月下旬，县安全办和公安局联合检查时发现：该厂出产的鞭炮氯酸钾含量高达50%；每次和药达20kg，超过规定标准6倍多；无证技术人员指导作业，各种工序无操作规程，制引车间没有与其他工序分开；氯酸钾仓库未单独设立，库内存放大量纸张、鞭炮等方面的事故隐患。检查组通知叶某某停产整顿，落实安全措施。但叶对此置若罔闻，继续违章生产，冒险作业。6月6日，县安全办再次通知该厂停产整顿，叶某某仍拒不执行。1988年9月5日16时许，制作黑火药的工人潘某某和向某某一起，在制引车间，违章用瓦钵将小瓷缸中的黑火药掏出装进塑料袋中，因摩擦形成高温，导致黑火药爆炸。 二、事故原因分析 不认真履行职责，严重忽视安全生产管理。这次事故的发生虽说是职工直接违章所致。但叶某某身为厂长，对本厂的安全工作不抓不管，又不安排人分管，并违反烟花炮竹安全管理办法，让未经培训考试合格的生产工人和技术人员上岗作业，对工人的违章和药行为放任不管。当有关部门发现该厂存在事故隐患，明确要求停产整顿时，叶拒不执行，仍我行我素，盲目蛮干，是导致此次爆炸事故的重要原因。 三、防止同类事故的措施 认真履行职责，抓好安全生产管理，要根据要求制定安全生产措施，对未经培训考试合格的工人或技术人员不得使用或聘请，对有关部门的正确建议要及时贯彻执行。对违章行为和事故隐患及早采取措施排除。严禁放任不管和严重不负责任的行为发生。 根据以上情形回答下列问题，1～3题为单选题，只有一个正确的答案，4～8题为多选题。有两个或两个以上的答案。 烟花爆竹生产企业生产厂房、储存仓库、燃放试验场的内外部安全距离、厂房布局、建筑结构、生产工艺布置、安全疏散条件、消防设施以及防爆、防雷、防静电等安全设施应符合( )的要求。
