As we know that smoking is dangerous to our health . But there are so many people still smoke especially the teenage with are the most important problem in this moment . In my opinion smokers smoke because they think it look smart eventhough they know that it harmful to themselves and it affect to other people too . I think in university should have the rule to banned the students which smoke while they wear the uniform . This behavior doesn't appropriate with them . When I asked to my friends why they to smoke , they told me it can make them relax . I don't understand how it make them relax .

I do agree Smoking is a bad habit,
it is undoubledly harmful to our body,
especially to the second-hand smokers.

In fact,
many teenager smoker konw the disadvantages of it,
however, as the peer pressure, they still do so.

Furthermore,
some youngsters have a wrong concept of it,
they think that smoking is a kind of fashion,
it seems cool and they would be seemed mature.

If we want to reduce the number of teenage smoker,
education is very important.

Everyone knows that "smoking is bad for you". You know that if you start smoking that 1/3 of you will eventually die from it. And for the most part, that's about all you know.

In my opinion .Teenagers are immortal. Teenagers live forever. At least that's the way it seemed when I was a teenager. People's perception of time is logarithmic and when your 18 a "half lifetime" is 9 years. Your parents are 2-3 half lifetimes older than you and your grandparents are 4-6 half lifetimes older than you and in your mind that is like eternity and beyond the scope of your imagination. Thus, in your mind, the health effect form smoking is so far off in the future that it's beyond the limits of your imagination. Besides, surely by then they will cure cancer.

However, there are a lot of other reasons to not smoke other than taking a chance with cancer and heart attacks. These reasons are actually a lot stronger and affect you a lot sooner and affect all smokers.

Nowadays, there are many teenagers still smoke, although they know that smoking can damage their health. Teenagers still smoke for three reasons.
First, the influence from society at present. They think that smoking is a kind of fashion, it seems cool and they would be seemed mature. They smoke follow their friends or friends persuade them. They imitate from favourite actor, it is smart looking.
Second, the government doesn�t have the strict laws at present. The government stills to levy a tax from cigarette business. Teenagers can smuggle to buy cigarette convenient, although less than eighteen years old.

All the people know that it is harmful for their health to smoke a lot, for instance, people may get cancer if they smoke a lot. However, many people still smoke a lot every day, especially men. They think that smoking is a good way for them to relax themselves. In addition, they even prove to have more energetic after smoking. To make matters worse, many more young people started to smoke when they were about 15. Personally speaking, I do not like people who like smoke because I do not like the smell of cigarettes. The smell always makes me cough a lot. I do not know why so many people like smoking, although they know the harm of smoking. Please give up smoking, smokers!
