A New Cigarette Hazard: ‘Third-Hand Smoke’

(http://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/03/health/research/03smoke.html?em)

In my opinion, cigarette is useless. It implicates chronic suicide. In addition, it is not only harms their health but also harms the people who surround them. I think that the people who smoking is stupid and selfish. Because every time they smoke that means everyone who surround them will be hurt and environment will be polluted. When I know that I can get diseases even though I don’t smoke or the term second- hand smoke, I feel angry and complain constantly that why should I suffer from it. There are 4,000 kinds of toxin in cigarette and there are around 42 kinds which were carcinogenic. Besides, there are 250 kinds of toxin in second-hand smoke. Now, new disaster has found and it’s called ‘Third-Hand Smoke’ which is carcinogens in this third-hand smoke, and they are a cancer risk for anybody of any age who comes into contact with them.
It is not only makes our live become more difficult but also makes infants and children are highly possibility to suffer diseases. In spite of when you smoking there are no one, but the researcher said that “breathing air in a room today where people smoked yesterday can harm the health of infants and children.”
Personally, I don’t understand that why lots of people smoking. It has not any advantage. By contrast, it harms their health severe. I suggest everyone who smoking that if you don’t care about yourself but you must care about environment. It you don’t care about environment you must care about the people you love, including your family and your friends. (265 words)

According to “People who don’t get much sleep are more likely than those who do to develop calcifications in their coronary arteries, possibly raising their risk for heart disease, a new study has found.”

In my opinion, I think it is really bad news to people who are on the night shift and the people who interested in the night life or often burn midnight oil. In short, the people who don’t get enough sleep. Because this circumstance happens to them directly. In the matter of fact, I am the one who often sleep less than 5 hours a night, so I am quite worry about it. Now, I try to change my behavior because of afraid of it. If you are one of us, I suggest that you should sleep more than ever, your health will be better. Moreover, I realize that every movement I take can be the crises of life and I have to take notice of it.

At first, I just think that someone who doesn’t get much sleep will be weary, giddy and has not spirit in the next day. I have never thought that its drawback will be serious as this situation. Although this report not yet be confirmed, but it also has high possibility to people who get less sleep to be heart disease. Besides, getting more sleep that means getting more relaxing. People will have full of power to face with a new day, furthermore, blood pressure usually dips when people are asleep, which could provide health benefits for those who get more sleep.(228 words)
