Education English | Analytical Exposition Text : Thank You for Not Smoking | Before we are going to smoke, it is better to look at the reality. In Britain, about 50 thousand people die per year as direct result of smoking. This is seven times as many as die in road accidents. Nearly a quarter of people die because of diseases caused by smoking. 90 % of lung cancers are caused by smoking. If we smoke five cigarettes per day , we are six time more likely to die of lung cancer than a non smoker. If we smoke twenty cigarettes per day, the risk is nineteen times greater. 95 % of people who suffered from the bronchitis are smokers. Smokers are two and half times more likely to die of heart disease than non smokers.
Additionally, children of smokers are more likely to develop bronchitis and pneumonia. In 1 hour in smoky room, non smokers breathes as much as subtance causing cancer as if he had smoked fifteen cigarettes.
Smoking is really good for tobacco companies because they make huge profits from people's smoking habit. Smoking however is not good for us.
