Five years ago. I went to Shao Xing to visit my cousin. My grandpa had been outside smoking when my aunt called him into the house. He left his 　36 on the front porch（门廊） steps so he could continue smoking it 　 37 he returned.

My cousin was 38 to see what smoking was really like，so he picked up the cigarette，put it in his mouth and puffed(吹) in 39 . Next，he was 　40 his head off. He looked like he was about to throw up，but he stretched his hand out toward me to 　41 me the cigarette. “Come on. Try it.”he said.

I just grabbed the stupid thing out of his hand and smashed it with my 　42 .Then，grandpa returned. “Where’d my cigarette go?” he asked. I just stood there，not wanting to admit what I had done or what my 　43 had done before that. But I knew that this was the moment of truth. I took a deep breath and began to 　44 .

I told my grandpa that I couldn’t 45 believe he would choose to smoke. I was sure he knew how bad it was，so why did he do it? He said he started smoking when he was just a teenager. Now he was so 46 that he couldn’t stop. It was just too hard to 　47 .

Here was an old man，my own grandpa. ，admitting there was something that he couldn’t control that was probably 48 killing him. I stood there in disbelief. dumbfounded(目瞪口呆的). Then I remembered this ad I had seen on TV: There was this lady who was so addicted(有瘾的) to cigarettes that she’d gotten really sick. Doctors had to 49 a hole in her throat for her to 50 ，and she was still smoking through the hole! It was the most disgusting thing I’ve ever seen. Standing in front of my grandpa，I began to cry. 　51 that happened to him?

Ever since that day， my grandpa has 52 　on cigarettes. I know one thing: I want to live a long time. I don’t want to be 　53 or out of control of my life the way 　54 that lady was. I’ll never smoke. I’ll take 　55 air.
