My first cigarette nearly killed me
I was just going home after school, when I saw some of my
classmates smoking. 1._____________________:
“It kills 50,000 people a year!”
“It doesn't only damage your own health, but the health of those around
you!”
“Each cigarette knocks five minutes off your life!”
“It's just like kissing an ashtray!”
I couldn't see why, if they knew all this, they still smoked, but
they were happy to talk about why. 2.
_______________________________________. Her
older sister was going out with a heavy smoker. One night their parents were
out and her sister and boyfriend had said jokingly, “Would you like a
cigarette?” She said OK, because she didn't want to look stupid. Smoking made
her feel dizzy and hurt the back of her throat, but she carried on to impress
her sister and her boy-friend. 3.______________________________. Now she
bought her fags from the corner shop, or got them from her friends. She didn't
think there was any point in her giving up, as her mum and dad smoked and her
health was still in danger because she was breathing in their smoke anyway. 4.__________________________.

started smoking when he and his cousin bought some cigarettes and tried them
down by the river. 5._______________________. Later he found a cigarette
helped after arguments with his mum. At the end they insisted on
me having one, so that I knew what I was missing. They suggested that there was
something wrong with me if I didn't smoke. 6.__________________________.
I took two or three really deep breaths. I started coughing, my eyes watered
and I nearly fainted. When I began to look as if I was about to throw up, my
classmates, who thought it was very funny, left. On the way home I stopped to
buy some chewing-gum to cover up the smell. Got home, cleaned my teeth and held
my breath when mum kissed me goodnight.

Dear Advice Special
The problems with my parents started when I was sixteen. I wanted
a Saturday job but my parents ordered me to stay at home and study for my
exams. Whenever I pointed out that all my friends had Saturday jobs, they
always replied. “We don't care what they do. It's you we're worried about.”
This made me so angry that I did whatever I could to provoke them. I dyed my
hair white blonde and covered my face in make-up before I went to school. Of
course, this didn't help. It was a rule that in the evening I was only allowed
out once during the week and on Saturday till 10 p.m. Every time I went out my
parents asked me who I was going out with and where we were going. It never
crossed my mind that they were probably just worried about me. Once I asked to
go to a party on a Saturday night. They agreed but on condition that Dad came
to pick me up at 10 p.m. I argued and argued about it but in the end I had to
agree. I knew I was going to be really embarrassed when my father came to pick
me up, so I spent the whole party worrying. I didn't speak to my parents for
three days after that. My mother tried to explain how they both felt, but I
didn't want to listen. It was then that I decided to break all their rules. So
instead of coming home at 10 p.m., I would arrive back at 11.30 p.m. and then
refuse to tell them where I had been. I hoped they would decide I was old
enough to look after myself, and leave me alone. However, the arguments just
got worse and worse, and finally, one Saturday night I didn't come home till 2
a.m. My father wanted to know why I was so late. I refused to tell him. We had
a big argument which ended with me getting a taxi to my sister's
house. What went wrong?
Yours,
Alice
