Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
A smoker is generally considered someone who smokes regularly or daily. Jeannie only smokes when she's out with friends, so she wouldn't consider herself a smoker. However, she does occasionally smoke, so she may not completely deny being a smoker. Answer A is incorrect because it assumes that all smokers smoke at any time. Answer C is also incorrect because the term "semi-smoker" is not commonly used and may not accurately describe Jeannie's smoking habits. Answer D is also incorrect because quitting smoking anytime does not necessarily mean that someone is not a smoker.
