根据下列内容，回答题。Despite these alarming statistics, the scale of the threat that smoking causes to women'shealth has received surprisingly little attention. Smoking is still seen by many as a mainly maleproblem, perhaps because men were the first to take up the habit and therefore the first to sufferthe ill-effects. This is no longer the case. Women who smoke like men will die like men. who es-timates that, in industrialized countries, smoking rates among men and women are very similar, ataround 30 percent; in a large number of developed countries, smoking is now more common a-mong teenage girls than boys.
As women took up smoking later than men, the full impact of smoking on their health has yetto be seen. But it is clear from countries where women have smoked longest, such as the UnitedKingdom and the United States, that smoking causes the same diseases in women as in men andthe gap between their death rates is narrowing. On current trends, some 20 to 25 percent of womenwho smoke will die from their habit. One in three of these deaths will be among women under 65years of age. The US Surgeon General has estimated that, among these women, smoking is respon-sible for around 40 percent heart disease deaths,55 percent of lethal strokes and, among womenof all ages,80 percent of lung cancer deaths and 30 percent of all cancer deaths. Over the last 20years, death rates in women from lung cancer have more than doubled in Japan, Norway, Poland,Sweden and the United Kingdom; have increased by more than 200 percent in Australia, Denmarkand New Zealand; and have increased by more than 300 percent in Canada and the United States.
