答案                            Should Smoking be Banned?
    For years, whether smoking is allowed or not in public places has drawn a lot of attention from the public. Some people think as long as tobacco is sold, people should have rights to access cigarettes and tobacco everywhere. However, some others hold that smoking should be banned thoroughly not only in public places, but everywhere, of which I am in complete favor.
    The main reason is that tobacco is a silent killer to smokers. Tobacco is known to be the probable cause of some 25 different diseases, and for some, such as lung cancer, bronchitis and emphysema, it is the main cause. According to a WHO report, four million people die yearly from tobacco-related diseases, an equivalent to one death every eight seconds. Obviously, tobacco is becoming a greater cause of death and disability than any other single cause.
    Another reason is that more and more young people under 18 years old who smoke cigarette have been blinded by the deceit of tobacconists. Tobacco among adolescents remains stubbornly persistent. Smoking among adolescents rose in the 1990s in several developing countries, such as China, Vietnam and Thailand. While new markets are being opened by the tobacco industry actions, old markets have not been closed. Tobacco is a global threat.
    Last but not the least, there is an increase in cigarette smuggling. Because of tobacco smuggling, the legal retailing and distribution systems are badly affected, and faced with increased lawlessness and heavy tax losses. This behavior severely affects the economy.
    In conclusion, smoking should be banned, because of the hazard it poses to people’s health.
