語法的疑問？——

         Personally, I believe that cigarette production and consumption threatens to do more harm than good. Firstly, smoking is responsible for many fatal diseases such as lung cancer, heart diseases and so on. According to the survey, tobacco consumers account for about 20% of the world population, and among them, three million people die from smoking-related diseases every year. The fact that the output of tobacco production is reduced from 143.64 billion pounds in 1994 to 142 billion pounds in 1995 also suggests that people have come to realize the negative effects of smoking. Secondly, tobacco consumption is extremely wasteful of money. As is indicated in the pictures, 200 billion US dollars is lost due to smoking each year. Obviously, the total loss of money around the globe substantially exceeds the gain in the industry.
        In conclusion, as the economic development aims at making our life better, we cannot sacrifice our health for short-term financial benefits. If we have to spend more and more money providing medical services for those who suffer from smoking-related illnesses, the notion of promoting economy via tobacco production is not justifiable. It is high time that we fought for the total tobacco ban.

1、覺得“ threatens to do more harm than good ”，讀起來好生硬，“ threatens to  ”可不可以去掉，去掉“threatens to "后讀起來會覺得加順口，而且意思沒有變化。 cigarette production and consumption threatens to do more harm than good。這個句子分解出來是怎樣的？另外，to do more harm than good,是修飾句子的不定式？還是do more hard than good 作threaten to 的賓語？

2、 在It is high time that we fought for the total tobacco ban.，中，為什么用 “fought"而不是用"fight " .個人認為“fight"更符合時態。
