Smoking is one of the worst things kids can do to their bodies. Every single day, about 4,000 kids between the ages of 12 and 17 start smoking. Most junior school students don't smoke-only about 1 in 10 does. Most senior school students don't smoke either-about 1 in 4 does.      But why do those who smoke ever begin? There's more than just one simple answer. Some kids may start smoking just because they're curious. Others may like the idea of doing something that grown-ups don't want them to do. Still others might think smoking is a way to act or smoking makes them look like an adult.      Luckily, fewer people are starting to smoke than a few years ago. Maybe that's because more and more people have learned that smoking can cause cancer and heart disease. Sometimes kids don't worry about what future illness they might get.      Nicotine and other poisonous (有毒的) chemicals in tobacco cause lots of diseases, like heart problems and some kinds of cancer. If kids smoke, it will hurt their lungs and hearts each time they light up. It can also make it more difficult for blood to flow in the body, so smokers may feel tired. The longer they smoke, the worse the damage becomes.      The human body is smart, and it knows when it's being poisoned. When kids try smoking for the first time, they often cough a lot and feel pain or burnt in their throats and lungs. This is their lungs' way of trying to protect them. Also, many kids say that they feel sick to their stomachs or even throw up (呕吐).
