【答案解析】[解析] 32-35 Smoking is a harmful habit and makes one addicted once they start doing it. The number of teenagers smoking today has increased tremendously. Parents do their best to stop them from starting the habit; however, most of them are unsuccessful. Teenagers experience a feeling of isolation. It is the time that they are confused which role to take in society. Most of them usually have identity crisis at this age and smoking makes them feel better. Once they start smoking, they soon love the feeling of contentment it brings to them. Peer pressure is also a great factor to this. A teenager would like to belong to a group instead of being alone and no friends. Those who are non—smokers are often convinced by smokers to engage in this activity. Teenagers feel that if they won't join the group, they would lose their friends and wii1 be left alone in which they don't want to happen. This is the reason why they continue smoking. There are also some people who smoke because of the nature of their jobs. Those who work in a very cold area or at sea, smoke to keep their bodies warm. Call center agents and those who work at night love drinking their favorite cup of coffee and smoking at the same time while waiting for their shift at work. This is to keep them awake and attentive to answering their clients and finishing their assigned task. What does the speaker think of smoking?
