論吸菸 My View on Smoking
從最新的數據顯示，全球大概有13億菸民。人們普遍認爲吸菸對人體健康有嚴重的負面影響。根據以下列出的觀點，我認爲人們應該戒菸：
First of all, smoking make people live shorter. The cigarettes contain nicotine which can lead to liver cancer, lung cancer and other respiratory diseases. Scientists believe that smoking is the main cause of lung cancer. What’s more, smoking pollutes the air and the passive smokers. The passive smokers usually feel uncomfortable, such as headache, cough or no appetite at all. The World Health Organization said that more than 2.5 million people die of smoking cigarette every year. Secondly, smoking cigarette costs large sum of money. A heavy smoker can smoke up to 5 packs of cigarettes a day. If one pack is 20 Yuan, then it will cost 100 Yuan per day. The money you spend on smoking is 36,500 Yuan for the whole year. If you don’t smoke, you can use the money to do other meaningful things. For instance, traveling, investing. Last but not least, smoking has a bad impact on the smokers’ daily life and their minds. Smoking will affect the relationship between the smokers and their families. For one thing, the smokers want to quit smoking, but it’s hard. And the smokers’ families will be really disappointed if they keep on smoking. Step by step, the smokers will lose self-confident and self-respect. For another, few women are willing to marry with heavy smokers.
首先，吸菸使人的壽命變短。香菸中所含的尼古丁，可導致肝癌、肺癌和其他呼吸道疾病。科學家相信吸菸是引發肺癌的主要原因。而且，吸菸會污染空氣和那些吸二手菸的人。吸二手菸的人通常會覺得身體不舒服，比如頭痛、咳嗽、沒有食慾等。世界衛生組織宣佈全球每年至少有250萬人死於吸菸。其次，吸煙花費大量的金錢。煙癮大的人每天能抽5包煙。如果每包煙值20元，那麼一天下來就要花費100元，一年就是36500元。如果你不抽菸，你就可以用這些錢去做一些有意義的事情，例如旅遊、投資等等。最後，吸菸對吸菸者的日常生活和個人心理都有着嚴重的影響。吸菸會影響家庭成員之間的關係。其一，吸菸者想要戒菸，但是太困難；而繼續吸菸的話，家庭成員會很失望。慢慢的，吸菸者會失去自信和自尊。其二，只有少數女人願意嫁給那些煙癮大的人。
Due to the reasons above, I think it’s quite necessary for people to quit smoking and lead to a regular and healthy life.
綜上所述，我認爲戒菸非常重要。人們應該活得健康有規律。
