　　As can be seen from the graph, there have been sharp changes in the age distribution of drug addicts. To be concrete, the teenage addicts only made up 10 percent of all the drugsters in 1982 while the ratio rose up to 65 in 2002.
从图中我们可以看到，现有吸毒成瘾者的年龄分布急剧变化，更具体的说，在1982年时十几岁的吸毒者仅占所有吸毒者的百分之十，而在2002年这个比例增加到了百分之六十五。
　　The causes for them are not hard to find. First , teenagers’ fearless curiosity about everything new has led some of them into this marsh. Second, many of the young addicts turned for the first time to drugs for escape either from their failure in the national entrance exams or from their parents’ breakup. And above all, our education in the harmfulness of drugs has been far from adequate to build teenagers’ sound resistance to drugs. To sum up, the causes mentioned above must call for more of our concern, and effective measures should be taken to check the trend.From joozone.com.
导致这种结果的原因并不难找。首先，青少年对任何新鲜事物都存在好奇心并且对什么都无所畏惧，这使他们误入歧途。其次，许多是年轻吸毒者首次开始吸毒是为了缓解入学考试失败或被父母抛弃的痛苦。最重要的是，我们对毒品危害性方面的教育严重缺失，这样的教育不能让青少年建立健全的毒品意识。综上所述，我们必须加强对上述提到的原因的关注，并且也应该采取有效的措施来遏制这种趋势。
　　Obviously the drastic change will exert great impact on individuals and the whole society. For one thing, drug-taking does great damage to the health of drug users.. For another, some drug users commit robbery or even murder their parents and relatives to get money to buy drugs, which poses a great threat to the social security and the social stability. Therefore, it is high time we did something to put an end to this trend.
显然，这种吸毒者年龄的急剧变化对个人和整个社会都会产生重大的影响。首先，吸毒会对吸毒者的健康有很大的损害。其次，一些吸毒者为了得到买毒品的钱，不惜实施抢劫甚至谋杀他们的父母和亲戚，这也严重威胁了社会的安全和稳定。因此，我们必须马上采取行动制止这一趋势的发展。
