もしタバコを吸い続けるなら、あなたは近々癌を発症するでしょう。
You’ll get cancer before long if you keep smoking.
When something is close close (the 々 character repeats the kanji that was before it) it will happen before long.
The reading is the kun'yomi reading twice; that's the one you learn with the vocab word 近い from the previous level. The second 近 gets converted to ぢか, though, so take note of that.
