  Qiao is a sixth-grader at Yuhui Primary School. He is only 12 years old but has been smoking for three years.

  Liu, 15, is a Junior 2 student at Chicheng No 2 Middle School. He began smoking four years ago. “Smoking is part of my life,” Liu said.

  Qiao and Liu are not those boys' real names. But their problem, smoking, is a very real problem. In many countries, smoking is becoming a bigger problem for young people. Most smokers start in their teens (years of a person's age from 13 to 19) or earlier.

  A study(研究) of 8,000 Beijing students last May told us that smoking is a problem for many Chinese kids. More than 21% of middle school students and 6% of primary school pupils said they smoked.

  “If young people start smoking early, they will probably get addicted(上癮) to nicotine(尼古丁). And it will be very hard to give up later on,” said a professor.

  Every year, about four million people die because of smoking. And if people keep smoking, that number will go up to about 10 million a year by 2030, the World Health Organization(WHO,世界衛(wèi)生組織)says. So we have to learn and tell others about the dangers of smoking.

1.The sentence “Smoking is part of my life.” probably means “________”.

[  ]

A.I don't smoke very often

B.Smoking is very important to me

C.I don't smoke at all

D.I'm going to give up smoking

2.What will probably happen if a person starts smoking early?

[  ]

A.He will surely die early.

B.He cannot stop smoking.

C.It will be difficult for him to give up smoking.

D.He will become lazy soon.

3.The main(主要的) idea of this passage is that ________.

[  ]

A.smoking is becoming a bigger problem for young people

B.many people die because of smoking every year

C.WHO asks young people to give up smoking

D.nicotine makes people addicted

4.As middle school students, what should we do from now on?

[  ]

A.We should start smoking after middle school.

B.We should ask others to smoke outside.

C.We should laugh at smokers.

D.We should say no to smoking.
