The material discusses the concept of increasing the taxes on cigarettes and other unhealthy food. While the reading looks at the topic from one perspective the listening challenges certain points outlined in the reading passage.
Firstly, the reading details specific points regarding this topic, namely increase taxes on cigarettes and unhealthy could encourage people to reduce their consumption of these stuffs. Next, it is financially fair, because these people who do unhealthy behaviors usually need more medical service. Finally, the government can use these taxes in other public projects.
Conversely, the listening challenges the points, one specific contradiction is increase taxes on cigarettes could push people to buy cheaper and lower quality ones, which have more harmful substances with high risk of heart diseases. Furthermore, increase taxes on unhealthy foods does not mean that people stop buying these foods, but they will have less money left for healthy food. In addition to that, people who buy cigarettes may be high or restricted income, therefore increasing taxes could be unfair for those with low income; given that it will be much greater burden for people with low income. One final point, using these taxes in other projects will make the government depend on it, which discourage government to band unhealthy behaviors, such as smoking in open parks. Because government does not want to lose those income.
