参考答案： Teenage Smoking Soars
In recent years, China has experienced an alarming increase in teenage smoking. The statistics are quite disturbing and cause people to ask why.
The factors for a great rise in teenage smoking are complicated. Some attribute it to the increased standard of living which enables kids to have more pocket money, while others blame cigarette advertising and the import of cigarettes. In addition to the external circumstances, the psychological factors should also be examined. Most young people begin to smoke merely out of curiosity: they have a strong desire to experience the pleasure of smoking. They also have a subconscious feeling that smoking will make them mature and tough and sophisticated.
To help them get rid of such foolish ideas is the first step, and then we may conduct an extensive campaign to make them aware of the dreadful consequences of taking up the habit of smoking.
