　　You’d think by now that everyone would be aware of the dangers of cigarette smoking．So why are more women lighting up?

　　Since 1980, some 3 million women have died of smoking-related illnesses．A new study reports women now account for 39 percent of all smoking-related deaths, a figure that has more than doubled since 1965．

　　Nearly all women who smoke picked up the habit as teenagers－and 30 percent of today’s high school seniors smoke．Dr Thompson says, “We must begin this battle in schools before girls even begin to smoke．We must share with teenage girls that smoking is really harmful．”
