Nowadays more and more people have realized smoking can do harm to people'shealth. However, some people still enjoy smoking. Why? Because some of them think it is a kind of fashion, some think it is of GREat fun and others, think that smoking can refresh themselves.
In fact, smoking is a bad habit. It can cause a lot of diseases. Meanwhile smoking is a waste of money. Besides, careless smokers may cause dangerous fires.
Smoking is harmful and it is not only bad for smokers themselves, but also bad for non-smokers.
Therefore, I hope all the smokers can give up smoking for themselves and also for the people around them.
據估計，在中國吸煙者約佔總人口的一半，而且煙民的年齡越來越年輕，甚至一些中學生也在抽煙。
如今越來越多的人們已經認識到吸煙有害人體健康，但他們仍然樂此不疲。為什麽?一些人認為抽煙是一種時髦，另外一些人認為抽煙很有趣，還有一些人認為吸煙可以提神。
事實上，吸煙是一種不好的習慣，它能導致很多疾病。同時，吸煙很浪費金錢。除此而外，粗心的煙民還可能引起火災。
吸煙對人們的身體百害而無一利。它不僅有害吸煙者本人，而且對不吸煙者也會造成損害。
因此，我希望吸煙者為自己和身邊的人們而戒煙。

Smokers are about to get help kicking the tobacco habit: an interactive computer game that aims to "coach" cigarette users away from their addiction.
想戒煙的煙民們有救了：一款互動式電腦遊戲可以“指導”煙民戒掉煙癮。
Based on the successful "Allen Carr's Easyway to Stop Smoking" method which reportedly has helped more than 10 million smokers to stub out their cigarettes once and for all, the game, designed for Nintendo DS, will be developed by the Quebec bureau of California-headquartered Ubisoft.
這款遊戲主要以“艾倫·卡爾簡便戒煙法”為基礎，據說這種戒煙法已幫助一千多萬煙民永久戒煙。這款專為任天堂DS(一種攜帶型掌上遊戲機)設計的遊戲將由總部位于加利福尼亞的育碧軟體公司的魁北克分公司開發。
In the smoking cessation game, players enter a brief personal smoking history and their tobacco habits and choose a personal coach to guide them through the process of quitting, according to a press release issued by Ubisoft.
據育碧軟體公司發布的新聞通稿介紹，在這款戒煙遊戲中，玩家隻需輸入簡短的個人吸煙史以及他們的吸煙習慣，並選擇一個私人教練，就可以讓這個教練指導他們戒煙了。
Fifteen mini-games help to "dispel the illusions about nicotine addiction" and players can track their progress in kicking the habit using the "Path to Freedom" meter.
15個迷你遊戲可以幫助戒煙者“驅除煙癮”，而且玩家還可以使用“自由之路”計量器來跟蹤自己的戒煙進展。
"And even after that last cigarette butt has sullied the ashtray, you can still play the game and measure the daily benefits you get from your new life without cigarettes," Ubisoft promises.
育碧公司聲稱，即便戒煙成功後，你依然可以繼續玩這個遊戲，並看看沒有香煙的新生活能給你帶來多大的好處。
"The player experiences a truly interactive engagement with the game, through which he or she learns that it can actually be enjoyable to quit smoking," said Christian Salomon, vice president of worldwide licensing at Ubisoft.
育碧軟體全球許可部副主管克裏斯丁·勒蒙說：“遊戲玩家能與這個遊戲進行真正的互動，並能在這一過程中體會到戒煙可以很愉快。”
