" Never try smoking "

The Honorable, The English Teachers

And all of my friends that I love.

Assalamualaikum Wr. Wb.

And Good Morning, Ladies and Gentlemen.

First of all, let me say thank you for Allah who gives us the chance of being in this good place. I’m also going to thank to our English teachers who give me the time to stand up here.

Secondly, let me introduce myself to all of you. I am Tri Esta Widyasari from grade XII-IPA 2.

Ladies and gentlemen, I am standing here to deliver my speech to all of you about “Never try smoking”.

Ladies and gentlemen, Brooke Shields, an American artist, said “Smoking kills. If you are killed,  you have lost a very important part of your life”. Cigarette smoke contains over 4,000 chemicals, including 43 known cancer-causing (carcinogenic) compounds and 400 other toxins. These include nicotine, tar, and carbon monoxide, as well as formaldehyde, ammonia, hydrogen cyanide, arsenic, and DDT. Nicotine is highly addictive. Smoke containing nicotine is inhaled into the lungs, and the nicotine reaches your brain in just six seconds. While not as serious as heroin addiction, addiction to nicotine also poses very serious health risks in the long run.

It’s a proven that smoking is very dangerous for the human body. Smoking cigarettes can cause cancer, respiratory disorders, and a range of cardiovascular diseases. People who smoke are not only killing themselves but also people near them, passive smokers. Active smoking can be a choice but passive smoking can not.

So, smoking means invite the death to come to us faster. And as we know, many people smoke cigarettes like it is their daily  habbit, it’s even more dangerous because junior and high school students in this era, also smoke cigarettes. They are the young people who should fight for their future, their nation and their family. When they smoke, it means that they make their life to end faster than it should be.

Ladies and gentlemen, see, smoking cigarettes causes many negative aspects. Many people shoud realize that. People who don’t understand the negative effects of tobacco smoke should not be exposed to smoke. So, for the non smokers, you better never try smoking because of it is very harmful.

            Well, that’s all for my speech today, I hope you learn something from what I told you before. Thank you for your kind attention, and I apologize for every mistake I made  at this speech.

Wassalamualaikum wr wb

And good morning people.
