Anyone who has ever tried to stop smoking knows how difficult it is to quit. There is no lack of information about how unhealthy smoking is for you- not to mention the unpleasant smell. So why would teens ever begin to smoke?
1. Research shows that the majority of smokers lit up their first cigarette in their early or mid-teens, precisely at a time when children are beginning to establish their own identity apart from their parents. Smoking can be an act of rebellion(反抗) against parents or authority figures, as well as a way to fit in with others and feel accepted.
Here are some things that parents can do to help a child stay smoke-free.
Start talking to your teen about how bad smoking is for him early, well before his teens. Keep talking, too. 2.
3. For example, smoking makes your hair and clothing smell bad, stains the teeth, and reduces your lung power to play sports.
4. Talk about the addictive power of smoking and tell him while those few cigarettes are his choice, the addiction that occurs shortly afterwards makes him powerless to decide whether or not he wants to light up.
Work on self-esteem(自尊) and self-confident with your teen. Much of the attraction of smoking is to gain acceptance. 5.
Young teens live in the moment, too.
Play on your child’s desire to make his own choices.
The answer lies in the develop-mental stage of your teens.
Give your child the facts, but focus on the things he can relate to.
Help your teen to feel good about himself without having to smoke.
One discussion will not be enough to help your child not to smoke.
They won’t be aware of how powerful addictive smoking is in a very short time.

In 1959, when Jean Harper was in the third grade, her teacher gave the class an assignment to write a report on what they wanted to be when they grew up. She poured her heart into her report and expressed her dream of becoming an airline pilot. Her paper came back with an "F" on it. The teacher told her it was a "fairy tale". Jean was heartbroken and ashamed. As the years went by, Jean was beaten down by the discouragement and negativity she encountered whenever she talked about her dream. "Girls can't become airline pilots; never have, never will. You're crazy. That's impossible. "Finally Jean gave up.
In her senior year of high school, her English teacher was a Mrs. Dorothy Slaton, a demanding teacher with high standards. One day Mrs. Slaton asked this question: "If you had unlimited finances, unlimited access to the finest schools, unlimited talents and abilities, what would you do?" Jean felt a rush of the old enthusiasm, and with excitement she wrote down the very old dream.
The next thing that Mrs. Slaton said changed the course of Jean's life. The teacher leaned forward over her desk and said, "I have a little secret for you. You do have unlimited abilities and talents. When you leave school, if you don't go for your dreams, no one will do it for you. You can have what you want if you want it enough."
The hurt and fear of years of discouragement disappeared all of a sudden. Jean felt thrilled and told her about her dream of becoming a pilot. Mrs. Slaton slapped the desk top. "Then do it!" she said.
So Jean did. It didn't happen overnight. In her l0 years of hard work, even facing varieties of laugh, frustration and opposition, she never gave up her dream. Instead, she went on doing everything her third-grade teacher said was fairy-tale.
Eventually, Jean Harper became a Boeing 737 captain for the United Airline Company.

Dear Jeremy and Alice,
Although we’ve been delighted to have you as neighbors, we’re hoping to settle something that bothers to us. In a word, your dog—Cleo.
We’ve called several time about Cleo’s early morning barking. It is difficult to understanding why she barks every minute she’s outside. The early morning barking have been disturbing us as we are often up all night with the baby. Beside, Cleo tends to bark a average of six hours a day. This morning she starts barking even before 5 o’clock. That is too much for us. considering how closely the houses are.
We appreciate our apologies and goodwill, but we hope which you can figure out a good way of settling the matter.

I saw a dear friend a few days ago and stopped by to ask her how she was doing.She looked up,voice lowered,just complaining:“I'm so busy…have so much going on”
Almost immediately after,I ran into another friend and asked him how he was.Again,the same tone,the same response:“I'm just so busy…got so much to do.”
Their responses knocked me down.How did we create a world in which we have more and more to do with less time for leisure,less time for reflection,less time for community? When did we forget that we are human beings,not human doings? What happened to a world in which we can sit with the people we love so much and have slow conversations with meaningful pauses and silences that we are in no rush to fill?
This disease of being “busy” is spiritually destructive to our health and well-being.It weakens our ability to be fully present with those we love the most in our families, and keeps us from forming the kind of community that we all so desperately tong for.
I don’t have any magical solutions.All I know is that we are losing the ability to live a truly human life.I am always a prisoner of hope, but I wonder if we are willing to make a change to our so-called busyness of life.Somehow we need a different model of organizing our lives,our societies,and our families.
I want us to have a kind of existence where we can pause,look each other in the eye,touch one another,and ask ourselves:Here is how my heart is doing,I am taking the time to reflect on my own existence,and I know how to express the state of my heart.
1.What’s the result of the busy lifestyle?
A.People will become forgetful in their everyday life.
B.People are beginning to find some time for leisure.
C.People may lose the ability of enjoying their life.
D.People will further understand the importance of community.
2.How can we live a relaxed and balanced life according to the author?
A.By seeking help from local families.
B.By improving our working ability.
C.By reconstructing the model of our lives.
D.By creating a smarter open community.
3.Calling himself a prisoner of hope,the author means that .
A.he thinks people won’t change
B.he actually has magical solutions
C.it is harmful to have many hopes
D.he is always optimistic about life
4.What is the purpose of the author writing the article?
A.To express concerns about people’s complaints.
B.To criticize and reflect on the people’s present lifestyle.
C.To voice his opinions on how to live a simple life.
D.To question whether it is possible to live a slow life.

When I come across a good article in reading newspapers, I often want to cut and keep it. But just as I am about to do so, I find the article on the side is as much interesting. It may be a discussion of the way to in good health, or about how to behave and conduct oneself in society.
