question 2
smokers are worse at ____ than nonsmokers.
○ a. mental activities
○ b. connecting peoples names to their faces
○ c. recalling past activities
○ d. at sleeping

Explanation:

Smoking can have negative impacts on cognitive functions. One specific area where smokers may be worse off compared to nonsmokers is in the ability to connect people's names to their faces. This is related to memory and cognitive association, which can be affected by smoking. Mental activities is a very broad category and not as specific as the other options. Recalling past activities is also a form of memory but not as specifically studied in relation to smoking as the name - face connection. While smoking can affect sleep, it is not the most relevant answer in this context compared to the cognitive association task.

Answer:

B. Connecting people's names to their faces
