A cigarette is a small cylinder of finely cut tobacco leaves rolled in thin paper for smoking.
香烟是把精细切好的烟叶卷在薄纸里面供来吸的一个小圆柱体。
Smoking as such is rather popular with various people, though the malign and unhealthy effect it brings prevails all the time.
吸烟本身很受不同的人欢迎，但是它带来的不良和不健康的影响一直盛行。
Actually smoking is harmful and it is not only bad for smokers themselves, but also bad for non-smokers; (1)Those who smoke heavily are inclined to get lung diseases, such as lung cancer, bronchitis, asthma, emphysema and etc.
实际上吸烟是有害的，它不仅对吸烟者本身有害，而且对不吸烟的人也有害；经常吸烟的人容易得肺病，如肺癌，支气管炎，哮喘，肺气肿等。
(2)Even though we all realize the potential harms of smoking, we can't yet abandon the idea of smoking. (3)The reasons why there are still plenty of people who don't yet quit smoking, or who start to attempt to smoke are that：
(一)a cigarette contains a (4)little nicotine and (4)some other nasties, like stimulants, tar and so on, (4)that directly act on human beings' nerves, (5)making you feel excited or energetic or self-satisfied；
(二)they yield to curiosity or others' incitements or temptations.
尽管我们都认识到吸烟的潜在危害， 但是我们还不能放弃吸烟的念头。很多人还不能放弃吸烟或是尝试开始吸烟的原因有：
(一)香烟含有一些尼古丁和一些其他令人讨厌的物质，就像兴奋剂，焦油等等，这些物质直接作用于人类的大脑，使你觉得兴奋或充满能量或自我满足；
(二)受好奇心或是其他人的煽动引诱。
If you never smoke, (6)it's essential that you should stick to this "never" forever. Whenever you start to smoke, you will be addicted to it slowly, and once you get addicted to smoking, there won't be any suitable ways of get rid of it;
如果你从未吸过烟，那最好永远不要碰。 无论你什么时候开始吸烟，你都会慢慢上瘾的，且一旦你上瘾了，将不好根治。
(7)It's not yet late to quit smoking now for fear that you (should) get some chronic diseases, and there aren't any reasonable reasons that you don't quit smoking no matter how miserable or afflictive it would be; Thinking of doing this for your family may bring you powerful support.
现在戒烟还不晚，以免得了一些慢性病，无论戒烟如何痛苦难受，你都没有什么合理的理由使你不戒烟；想想你戒烟是为了家人，就能拥有强大的动力。
主要语法分析：
(1)who引导的定语从句，修饰先行代词Those。
(2)even though引导的让步状语从句，相当于汉语的“尽管”，“虽然”，引出的是往往是真实的，与even if的区别是：even if 引导的从句是往往是假设性的，相当于汉语的“即使”“纵然”“就算”“哪怕”，如：
Even if it rains tomorrow, we won't change our plan.
即使明天下雨，我们也决不改变计划。
(3)why引导的定语从句，修饰先行词reasons。
(4)当先行词被little或some修饰时，定语从句只能用关系代词that。
(5)动词分词making引导的结果状语从句。
(6)should型虚拟语气，由essential引导，句型：It's essential...that。
(7)for fear that 引导的目的状语从句，句型：for fear that xx (should)
