Newspaper article/essay
Do you have a friend who smokes? I do. Her name is Alice. It’s a disgusting habit, which at times makes me question whether I want to be her friend. I know that I am not alone in thinking that it is disgusting – and this is the reason that I think it is wrong for teenagers to smoke. So why is it so bad for us?
Firstly, smoking is bad for you because it causes many terrible diseases. For example, smoking can cause many different types of cancer, it can make asthma much worse and even cause parts of your body to rot away. In fact, the chances of getting lung cancer if you smoke is 40% higher than if you do not smoke. Still think smoking is a good idea?
