No Smoking in All Public Places
Some businesses now say that ao one call smoke cigarettes in any of their offices. Some governments have banned smoking in all public places. This is a good idea though it takes away some of our freedom.
As we know, smoking is harmful not only to our health but also to the environment. Smoking can lead to many diseases, such as lung cancer. Smoking affects non smokers more than it does smokers. Ratio of passive smokers getting ill is higher than that of smokers. So, many nonsmokers are against smoking.
In public places, the harm of smoking is greater. This is connected with another effect of smoking. That is, smoking pollutes environment by giving much poisonous vapour off into the air.
Therefore, that the government ban smoking is very necessary and important to us. It is a measure to protect our health and environment. So many people, especially nonsmokers are for the policy.
Some people say that it takes away some of our freedom. I think it is a one-sided view. If one wants to smoke, he may smoke in private, not in the public places. In fact, smokers still have the freedom of smoking.
But, I think, smokers had better give up smoking, not only in private places, but also in the public places, everywhere. It will be beneficial to ail of us.
[點(diǎn)評(píng)]
作者以大多數(shù)人的看法對(duì)吸煙的危害性作了描述和議論,并認(rèn)為政府應(yīng)禁止人們?cè)诠妶?chǎng)合吸煙。道理顯而易見(jiàn),描述清晰、流暢。

禁止在公共場(chǎng)所吸煙
現(xiàn)在,有些單位宣稱(chēng)沒(méi)有人可以在他們的辦公室里吸煙。有些國(guó)家已禁止在公共場(chǎng)所吸煙,這種做法很好,盡管它剝奪了我們一些自由。正如我們所知道的,吸煙不僅對(duì)健康不利而且對(duì)環(huán)境也不利。吸煙會(huì)導(dǎo)致多種疾病,例如:肺癌。煙氣對(duì)不吸煙者的影響有甚于對(duì)吸煙者本人的影響。被動(dòng)吸煙比吸煙人患病率要高。所以很多不吸煙的人反對(duì)吸煙。
在公共場(chǎng)合吸煙危害更大,這是吸煙產(chǎn)生的另外一種影響。那就是,吸煙所產(chǎn)生的大量有害氣體會(huì)污染環(huán)境。因此,政府禁煙對(duì)我們來(lái)說(shuō)是非常必要的和重要的。這是保護(hù)人類(lèi)健康和環(huán)境的一個(gè)辦法。所以有許多人,尤其是不吸煙的都贊同這一政策。
有些人說(shuō)這會(huì)剝奪我們的一些自由。我認(rèn)為這樣的觀點(diǎn)是片面的。如果某人想抽煙,可以在私人場(chǎng)合抽煙而不是在公共場(chǎng)合。實(shí)際上,煙民仍然有吸煙的自由。不過(guò),我認(rèn)為不僅僅是私下里,而且,在公共場(chǎng)合,在任何地方煙民最好放棄抽煙。這會(huì)有益于每個(gè)人。
