Within a few years, girls in Europe have become heavier smokers than boys, for reasons that experts still don't understand, according to a British study presented (递交) last week to an international conference (大会) on smoking. Anti-smoking activists at the second "Tobacco or Health" conference pointed out that although adults were giving up smoking in growing numbers, more and more young people were taking up the habit, particularly girls. One-fourth of the 15-year-old young people smoke regularly, according to the study made in 27 countries by Edinburgh University together with the World Health Organization. In Western Europe, girls were more likely to smoke than boys. In Germany or in England, one third of the girls were smokers compared to (相比) one in four boys. In Eastern Europe, the girls "still fall behind" those in the Western Europe but were "catching up" quickly, said the study. The study dealt with the behavior of 15-year-old in seven European countries between 1986 and 1998. The percentages (百分比) of young women smoking went from 17% to 36% in Austria, from 17% to 28% in Norway, from 21% to 28% in Hungary. In the seven countries and regions studied-Austria, Finland, Hungary, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland and Wales-more girls smoked than boys, with the exception (例外) of Hungary. |

Beads, stones, seashells, paper, precious metals such as gold and silver, base metals such as iron have all been used as money. Today, money is printed on paper. A lot of countries use their own currency, with names such as dollar, pound, franc, ruble, Yuan and so on. Since 2002, 18 of the EU members have replaced their national currencies by Euro notes and coins.
If you want to pay for something in another currency, you have to change your money into the other money. If you want to travel outside your native country,you need to change your own country's money for the money of the country you are visiting. Most large banks sell foreign currencies. You can exchange money at a bank or at an office of a tourist agency.
Wherever you go, exchanging money puts you in touch with international finance, which is concerned with exchange rates between different currencies. Deciding the rate for the international exchange of money is one of the most complex aspects of international banking.

Plants are the basis of the food pyramid for all living things, even for other plants. They have always been enormously important to the welfare of people, not only for food, but also for clothing, weapons, tools, dyes, medicines, shelter, and a great many other purposes. Tribes living today in the jungles of the Amazon recognize literally hundreds of plants and know many properties of each. To them, botany, as such, has no name and is probably ' not even recognized as a special branch of "knowledge" at all.
Unfortunately, the more industrialized we become, the farther away we move from direct contact with plants, and the less distinct our knowledge of botany grows. Yet everyone unconsciously has an amazing amount of botanical knowledge, and few people will fail to recognize a rose, an apple, or an orchid. Our Neolithic ancestors, living in the Middle East about 10,000 years ago, discovered that certain grasses could be harvested and their seeds planted for richer yields the next season. That was the first great step in a new association between plants and animals. Grains were discovered and from them flowed the marvel of agriculture: cultivated crops.
