Possible versions:
More and more teenagers are smoking nowadays. Why do they enjoy smoking? The reasons for that are as follows.
First, most young smokers think smoking is cool and does no harm right now. Feeling curious, they would like to try smoking themselves. Besides some parents often smoke not only at home but also in public places, setting bad examples to their children. Last but not least, some actors are often seen smoking in movies as well as in TV plays. Influenced by these films and TV plays, some teenagers believe that smoking helps make them more attractive and more like adults.
How foolish! As a matter of fact, smoking is not cool at all. What’s worse, it does great harm to our health. So give it up now!。
