How should stars act
Many of you might see some celebrities（名人）as role models. As public stars, celebrities have to be careful about what they say and do, as they are always in the spotlight.
That’s why a video of teen star Wang Yuan smoking in a Beijing restaurant has gone viral over the last few weeks. Smoking is banned（禁止）inside public indoor spaces.
Wang soon made an apology（道歉）on social media, saying that he had set a “bad example”. He also said that he would bear responsibility（责任）for his actions and accept his punishment.

Besides, as a celebrity, Wang also has to watch his behavior, as it is possible that he could influence（影响）his young fans. Smoking is unhealthy for anyone, regardless of his or her age. Over time, it can cause heart disease and strokes（中风）.
