Band 6.5

The government should ban smoking in all public places, even though this would restrict some other people's freedoms. Do you agree or disagree? Give reasons for your answer.

#government #ban #places #people #freedoms
Smoking is a common activity in
this
 modern society as more and more teenagers start to
smoke
 even though they are not adults already. Not all
people
 like the smell and the
smoke
 from cigarettes, so
government
 tends to impede their residents to
smoke
 in public. As far as I am concerned, I cannot agree with
this
 strategy from the
government
 for several reasons. Designing a suitable area for
people
 to
smoke
 in public is more appropriate than banning all the places. Some
people
 viewed smoking as a stress-release tool which can help them relax their mind or body after working for a long time. If there does not exist any area that allows them to
smoke
, it may cause serious problems.
For example
,
people
 will be starting smoking in the interior of the building or in cars in order to prevent being caught by police, but it actually raises the rate of building or car fired and the atmosphere in the office or building becomes worse. To decrease the population of smoking
people
 or air pollution from cigarettes, there are some other ways worth
government
 work on. Other
people
’s health issue is the fundamental thing that each smoking
people
 should,
although
 they need a cigarette in their daily life, they
also
 need to consider whether it will affect
people
’s life. Especially when children are nearby, children should be far away from cigarettes during they are growing up, so that can provide a good environment to survive. In conclusion, the
government
 banning all public smoking places will bring some problems which might be serious. For me, I do not accept the
government
 shutting down that area to
smoke
, suitable facilities setting or concepts are more important.
