Solution

The correct option is C Mask
'Obscure' means keep from being seen; conceal.
"grey clouds obscure the sun"
In this context, "Some people think that discussions of the dangers of cigarette smoking obscure the real issue of restricting smokers rights", 'obscure' means mask or conceal. Hence, option C is correct and the other options are not because they do not provide the appropriate information.
