And they also say that giving and being given cigarettes is a sign of friendship. Therefore, they carry cigarettes with them wherever they go.

　　But other people consider it very harmful to people”s health. They have heard the official reports that one person in the world dies from smoking every second. And they have heard the doctor”s warning that smokers are more likely to have lung cancer and to increase their chances of having heart attack. In addition, smoking pollutes the air and may cause fire accidents. Thus it has become a major threat to people”s life and property.

　　There is some truth in both arguments, but human”s life and property outweighs anything else. If smoking brings us illness and death, why not have it banned by the government? Without cigarettes, can”t we come up with better ways to express our friendship and to make us refreshed?注：1. outweigh 比……重要，同样的表达：be superior to/ be inferior to。overweight 超重2. 最后用两句反问句结尾，非常精妙。
