吸烟的危害是个老话题,然而,这个老话题总是在“抖”出新意。本文以调查研究后所得到的可靠的数据,再次向世人发出警告:女性在妊娠期吸烟,其所生的男婴多有暴力倾向,这种倾向延伸至其成年期! 这个结论并非耸人听闻之言,更无哗众取宠之意。因为: The finding was consistent with earlier studies that linked prenatal(出生以前的)smoking by women not only to lawbreaking by their offspring but to impulsive(冲动的)behavior and attention deficit(注意力不足)problems. 初步判断的原因是: …damage done by smoking to the central nervous system of the fetus(胎儿). 而且,文章还断言:此调查结论适用于不同人种: …these findings may be generalizable to other populations. 读者同志,当我国女性吸烟人数不幸呈上升趋势时,此文的现实意义也就不言而喻了!
