Few people like changing their habits, good or bad. Whether it is smoking, drinking or over-eating, they 1 “enjoying” them to the end.
On every packet of cigarettes（香烟), people are warned against the 2 of smoking: “Warning: Cigarette Smoking Is Dangerous to Your Health”. 3 , millions of them start smoking or go on smoking. Why？
Facts show that families and surroundings（环境) play a very important part in 4 smokers. All those smokers come from smoking families or have smoking 5 or relatives. Films and TV plays also play a part. People 6 their “heroes” on TV drinking alcohol（酒) or smoking cigarettes. “Heroes” seem to fear 7 , neither killing themselves nor killing others with alcohol and cigarettes.

Knowing and believing seem to be two 10 things. If smoking is really as harmful as doctors say, it is time for smokers to think about it and try to give it up!
