Question

A young man is lying in hospital sadly. The 24-year-old lost his right leg. The doctor said that his long history of smoking was the reason. “I first smoked when I was 14. It made me feel like a man and I thought it looked cool. Now I know I was wrong,” said the young man.

It is a mistake many young people make. According to the survey, 40 million of China’s 130 million young people aged between 13 and 18 smoke. Fifteen million of them are addicted (上癮的). The survey also found that about 68% of young smokers first smoked before the age of 13.
