comes from natural sources or processes that are
constantly replenished. For example, sunlight or wind
keep shining and blowing, even if their availability

Title: Causes and Effects of Smoking among Students
Introduction: Smoking is one of the most dangerous widespread
phenomena that threaten lives of a huge number of people worldwide. It
starts as a way of having fun but ends as an addiction that is therefore so
difficult to give up. Today, we often hear of “smoking among students.”
So why do students smoke and what are the effects that smoking has on
them?
26. example
Body: There are many reasons behind the phenomenon of smoking
among students. To start with, students smoke because they are curious
and want to discover the world of those who smoke. They are just trying
to have some fun when they smoke the first cigarette. Other students take
up smoking due to the family problems, especially when they see their
parents quarrels. Moreover, some students smoke since they think
cigarette would relieve stress they had during the day, especially at
school. Last but not least, students try to imitate adult smokers because
they want to show that they are adults, too.
27. example
Body: If we look at the consequences of smoking, we will find o many.
Smoking causes cancer. As a result, the addict students would suffer from
health problems that end in death. Another effect is that after certain
years, the addict would develop respiratory problems and will face a lot
of problems in running without losing breath. So, asthma, bronchitis, and
emphysema are always a lingering threat. One more important effect of
smoking is that it causes a lot of anger for the addict. Whenever they lack
cigarettes, they start reacting angrily and strangely.
28. example
Conclusion: To sum up, smoking is an ongoing threatening danger for
addicts and might affect the next generation. The best solution is
prevention according to proverb that says, “Prevention is better than
cure.”
