In fact, I remember the evening I was at a girlfriends house, and we were

43、watching a movie-a terribly romantic movie. He (the hero of the movie) was in love, she (his lady) was beautiful, and they were both smoking. My friend had only two cigarettes from a pack in her mothers purse, and she gave one to me. It was my first time. My parents didnt care much. They both smoked

44、, and my older brother did too. My mother told me that smokers dont grow tall, but I was already 56“ (taller than most of the boys in my class), so I was happy to hear that “fact. In school, the teachers talked against smoking, but the cigarette advertisements were so exciting. The men in the ads we

45、re so good-looking and so successful, and the women were-well, they were beautiful and sophisticated (老于世故的 ). I read a book called How to Stop Smoking.

However, it was very hard to stop. Nicotine (尼古丁 ) is a drug; as a result, Cigarettes cause a powerful addiction. I tried several t

49、imes to quit on my own-without success. I made excuses. I told myself: Smoking helps me keep my figure-i.e. I dont gain weight when I smoke. Smoking not only relaxes me but it also helps me think clearly. Im a free, liberated woman. I can smoke when I want to. Finally, I ran out of excuses-I might say my excuses went up in smoke. I joined the “Stop Smoking“ program at the local hospital, which also ended up in failure. 41 How the writer started smoking shows the powerful influence of （ A） educat
