What makes a good paragraph?
• A paragraph has a group of sentences
that support one main idea. This idea,
which often expressed in the topic of
paragraph, determines what happens in
the rest of the paragraph.
• All of the supporting sentences in one
paragraph should correspond to one
main idea.
• The sentences should be coherent or
follow a logical arrangement.
• Every idea in the paragraph should be
elaborated clearly and supported by
proof and details. The proof and
supporting details explain the
paragraph’s main idea

body, including the heart and blood vessels.
The chemicals in tobacco smoke can damage
the function of your heart and the structure
and function of your blood vessels. They
cause plaque to build up in arteries, which
harden and narrow overtime, and may lead to
coronary heart diseases, which can lead to
heart attacks and even death.

6. Is Smoking Good for Us?
Before we are going to smoke, it is better to look at the fact. About 50 thousand people
die every year in Britain as direct result of smoking. This is seven times as many as die in road
accidents. Nearly a quarter of smokers die because of diseases caused by smoking.
Ninety percent of lung cancers are caused by smoking. If we smoke five cigarettes a day,
we are six times more likely to die of lung cancer than a non-smoker. If we smoke twenty cigarettes a
day, the risk is nineteen greater. Ninety five percent of people who suffer of bronchitis are people
who are smoking. Smokers are two and half times more likely to die of heart disease than non-
smokers.
Additionally, children of smoker are more likely to develop bronchitis and pneumonia. In
one hour in smoky room, non-smoker breathes as much as substance causing cancer as if he had
smoked fifteen cigarettes.
Smoking is really good for tobacco companies because they do make much money from
smoking habit. Smoking however is not good for everybody else.

16. Global Warming
Global warming is a phenomenon used to describe the gradual increase in the temperature
of Earth's atmosphere and oceans. Global warming is not a new problem but lately people are
acknowledging that we are facing a serious problem. Climate change is apparent everywhere. Failed
crops, economic slowdown, and deforestation are among the several impacts of global warming.
First of all, there is irrefutable evidence that human activities have changed the atmosphere
of our earth. Since the time we have been industrializing, we started polluting our waters and air, and
have been releasing greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming.
Secondly, according to research by the Greenpeace organization, there is evidence of
extensive deforestation being carried out in Indonesia and other tropical countries around the world.
These forests are used to grow crops like palm sugar, palm oil and coffee–the lifeline of Western society
(Green-peace report, 2007). The impact of climate change is noticeable throughout Asia-Pacific, either
during hot days or too much rain accompanied by wind and thunderstorm.
This has started to affect the economy as well.
Furthermore, the shining weather patterns have made it difficult for farmers to grow
crops. A recent study has shown that due to unpredictable weather patterns, there have been lot of
failed crops (Reuters, 2007).
In conclusion, global warming is not a new problem nor are we solely responsible for it. But
as the citizens of the world, we have to take every possible action to help overcome this issue. It is not
only for us but for all the future generations to follow.
