The first telephone cards, produced in 1976, were Italian. Five years later the first British card appeared, and now you can buy cards in more than a hundred countries. People usually start collecting cards because they are small and light and you do not need much space for them. It is also a cheap hobby for beginners, although for some people it becomes a serious business. In Paris, for example, there is a market where you can only buy telephone cards, and some cards cost up to £4,000.The first Japanese card has a value of about £28,000. Most people only see cards with prices like these in their collectors’ magazine.

Wang Bing’s father began smoking when he was a freshman ( 大学一年级学生)in college. His friend passed him his first cigarette. He has now been smoking for more than 30 years.

It’s a classic example of how young people are introduced to cigarettes, except that nowadays smokers develop their habit at an even younger age.

It has become a major concern(担忧) in China that many teenagers begin to smoke. A survey showed that 22.5% of the middle school students questioned had tried smoking and 15.8% of them smoked regularly.

For many teenagers, smoking is a symbol of being an adult, independence, maturity(成熟) and attractiveness because the images who they love best often smoke on screen.

The social environment also plays an important role in attracting teenagers to smoking. They are used to seeing their elders, especially male family members, smoking at home. Many of them imitate adult behavior and become new smokers.

To increase the price of cigarettes is an effective way to reduce the number of young smokers, as teenagers have limited money to spend on them.

Another way is to educate the teenagers to voluntarily refuse cigarettes. A survey shows that 92.5% of the students know smoking will be bad for their health. If we persuade them in a proper way, most of them may give up smoking.

All in all, the society, the government, the school and the family should join together to take the responsibility for an anti-smoking (禁烟) campaign aimed at teenagers, not just to put empty slogans and warnings on cigarette packs.

1.The writer uses the first paragraph to ______.

A. tell the readers a story of a smoker

B. introduce the topic of the passage

C. introduce the college life of Wang Bing’s father.

2.What’s the main idea of this passage?

A.The teenagers think smoking is a symbol of being an adult and independence.

B.The social environment encourages the teenagers to smoke.

C.The teenagers should be educated to refuse to smoke.

D.The teenage smoking has become a serious problem in China.

3.What does the word ”imitate”in Paragraph 5 mean in Chinese?

A.指责

B.忍受

C.模仿

D.支持

4.From the underlined part of the last sentence of this passage, we can infer(推断) that the writer thinks putting slogans and warnings on cigarette packs is ______to solve the problem.

A.not enough

B.of no use

C.of great help

D.of great importance.

※When parents get angry, it isn't the time to get angry back. A lot of times they're not upset with you, but with their boss, the neighbor, or the price of vegetables. You just happen to be there at the wrong time. Look hurt? Get out of the way when they're in a bad mood. They need some time and space. Go outside, to a friend's house, or to your room. At last they will become calm and miss you.

※If you have trouble talking to your parents, or if they get angry every time you try to discuss something, write a note. Put it on their bedside table. Parents are easily moved by notes like this and will probably keep them forever.

※Do not create situations where there is a winner and a loser. You're the child and will probably lose most of the time. How many times have you grounded your mother or taken away the phone privileges(特权) from your dad? Try to compromise with each other and work out a situation where both of you win.

※Ask your parents once a day, "Is there anything I can do for you?"  Most of the time they will probably say no, or give you something that will take a few minutes to complete. Your parents will love this and see you as a very cooperative(可合作的) person. When this happens, they will probably be more cooperative with you. You could also surprise them by doing something they don't make you do. They'll tell everyone you are the best possible son or daughter and, what's more, they will believe it.
