    Cigarettes and its Danger to Our Lives


    Thesis No smoking. Do you ever see the words? Where do you ever find it? And what is the danger of cigarettes and it is smoke to our lives? Argument Well, you could found the words in mall, place of worship, school, restaurant and hospital. No Smoking, means you didnt permitted to smoking at there, and if you still doing that you will be expelled from that place. If you a smoker maybe you ever wondering, why you cant smoking freely wherever you want. And maybe you ever think that life is so cruel and rude on you. And did you ever think that everyone who hate smoke, think that you are a bad and stupid guy, who tried to hurt your own self and the others. For an example, is forbidden to smoking in a restaurant. And the reason is because smoking in a restaurant is impolite. The smell of the smoke affects all people and can turn them off their food. People pay to taste good food and not to be put off by foul smelling smoke. Most of people who is a non smoker think that a smoker whod been smoking carelessly is a bad guy or a criminal. Because cigarettes do not only harm the people who smoke. It also harm the people who are near cigarettes and breathe the smoke. This includes fetuses (unborn babies still inside their mothers) and small children. They are breathing second hand smoke. Second hand smoke is the smoke that comes out of the lit end of a cigarette and that a smoker exhales (breathes out). About 53,000 people die from second hand smoke every year. When we breathe second hand smoke, we are breathing the same 4,000 chemicals a cigarette smoker breathes. 51 of those chemicals cause cancer. Recommendation Considering some fact that mentioned above, you know what is the danger of cigarettes and its smoke right? And now you know why we shouldnt smoking. But it would be very impossible to prohibit all smokers, and because of that the government made special places for the smokers to smoking freely. Even like that, it would be wonderful if every smokers can stop to smoke. And start a new better life without cigarettes, smokes, and a chance to get a slowly and painfully death by cancer. So lets stop to smoking and create a wonderful life.
