Question

GENEVA--- The use of stimulants (興奮劑) or drugs is increasing and something must be done about it, the WHO (World Health Organization) said on Friday.  
In the 1970s the international focus was on heroin. In the 1980s and the 1990s the focus was on cocaine. Now in the 21^st century we are becoming frightened by the rapid increase in amphetamine--type stimulants, not only in the rich countries of the world but the whole world,” said the official of the WHO.
Amphetamines are often used by the workers, such as long-distance truck drivers, to increase endurance(耐久力) or delay sleep, the official said.
About 3 percent of the population of the world use amphetamine, experts said. In Britain, among young people between the ages of 16 and 19, fourteen percent of them have used amphetamine.
In Korea, Japan, Denmark, the Philippines and Australia , amphetamine are more widely used than heroin or cocaine, a reporter said. The problem is also widespread in the United States, Western and Eastern Europe.
