4. How can second hand affect others • Research has found that secondhand smoke is responsible for tens of thousands of deaths every year in non-smokers, including about 3,400 lung cancer deaths and an estimated 46,000 heart disease deaths. Evidence is growing that secondhand smoke might also play a role in the development of breast cancer. • However, children are the most vulnerable victims of secondhand smoke. About 35 percent of kids in the United States — some 21 million children — live in homes where they are regularly exposed to secondhand smoke. Children exposed to secondhand smoke suffer respiratory diseases, asthma attacks, and infections at an increased rate. Experts believe that every year secondhand smoke: • Results in 150,000 to 300,000 lung infections like pneumonia and bronchitis in kids younger than 18 months, leading to approximately 15,000 hospitalizations every year • Prompts more and worse asthma attacks in up to 1 million children with asthma • Is responsible for more than 750,000 middle ear infections in kids, due to build-up of fluid in the ear • Causes 430 babies to die of sudden infant death syndrome, or SIDS • Secondhand smoke also harms fetuses. Pregnant women exposed to secondhand smoke have: • More miscarriages and stillbirths • An increased risk of delivering a baby with low birth weight • More babies with impaired lung function • Tactics such as using air cleaners, airing out buildings, and creating separate smoking and non-smoking sections do not prevent non-smokers' exposure to secondhand smoke.

6. What do people think about cigarettes • What is the nature of this psychological pleasure? It can be traced to the universal desire for self-expression. None of us ever completely outgrows his childhood. We are constantly hunting for the carefree enjoyment we knew as children. As we grew older, we had to subordinate our pleasures to work and to the necessity for unceasing effort. Smoking, for many of us, then, became a substitute for our early habit of following the whims of the moment; it becomes a legitimate excuse for interrupting work and snatching a moment of pleasure. "You sometimes get tired of working intensely," said an accountant whom we interviewed, "and if you sit back for the length of a cigarette, you feel much fresher afterwards. It's a peculiar thing, but I wouldn't think of just sitting back without a cigarette. I guess a cigarette somehow gives me a good excuse."

7. Smoking cigarrets • Tobacco smoke contains chemicals that are harmful to both smokers and nonsmokers. Breathing even a little tobacco smoke can be harmful • more than 7,000 chemicals in tobacco smoke, at least 250 are known to be harmful, including hydrogen cyanide, carbon monoxide, and ammonia
