Teenage Smoking Soars

In the past decade, there has been an alarming increase in the number of teenage smokers in China.

在过去十年里，中国的青少年烟民数量以令人惊愕的速度增长。

There are a number of reasons for this. First of all, some would attribute this to the increase in economic stability. With more money to spend, teenagers are finding themselves with more freedom. Secondly, teenagers are affected by the many westem movies out there there that advertise smoking as a mature or cool thing to do. Thirdly, because teenagers today are all a result of the one-child policy, more parents are becoming lax on disciplining their children，as they will depend on them in the future.专业四级成绩查询

这一现象出现有很多原因。首先，有些人把这归咎于中国经济的稳定增长。手里有了更多的钱，青少年拥有了更多的自由。其次，青少年深受很多西方电影的影响，认为吸烟代表成熟，是一件很酷的事情。再次，因为现在的青少年多为独生子女政策的产物，很多家长在教育孩子方面非常纵容，因为他们将来要依靠孩子。

To curb this problem, I believe that cigarettes should not be sold to anyone under 18 years old. Furthermore, the government should ban smoking on television and in the media. (141 words)

为了抑制这个问题，我认为香烟不得出售给未满18 周岁的未成年人。而且，政府应该禁止电视或者媒体中出现吸烟的镜头。
