  “Teenager” means a person from 13 to 19 years old.Although they’re young, they have to make many important choices by themselves.Often teachers and parents cannot handle them because they don’t understand and know teenagers, especially their wishes, problems or different moods in a short time.They need to think about questions like these:Should we go to college? What kind of job do I want? However, other people also influence their choices.Who influences teenagers?

  It depends on the kind of choice.When teenagers buy things, friends are the most important influence.This is especially true for clothes and music.TV shows, advertisements and parents also influence teenagers.In more serious things, parents are probably the most important influence.Some teenagers say it’s best to regard both parents and friends as influences.James, a seventeen-year-old boy says he’s “just a crazy man”.He also says, “Parents are really important because they can tell you what’s right and wrong.”

  But teenagers also feel they need to make choices-to make their own mistakes.As one teenager girl said, “If our parents don’t let us make our own choices, maybe in the future we don’t know how to do it.” And they feel friends can often be a big help, especially because friends sometimes know more about their situation than their parents.

  Smoking in indoor public places including public working places, public transport vehicles and some other special outdoor working places has been banned(禁止)in China since January 2011.Let's look at the following advantages of banning smoking.

  First, banning smoking will not only help in saving smokers from health problems and diseases, but will also be good for passive(被動(dòng))smokers.When the smoker is smoking in a restaurant, the people around him are sure to breathe in the smoke and suffer from the diseases an active smoker gets.If smoking is banned, spread of these diseases can be controlled.

  Next, banning smoking will put stress on smokers to give up.Since a smoker is prevented from smoking, he will learn how to live without smoking for long hours.When a smoker doesn't smell or see anybody around him smoking, it might reduce his wish to smoke too.As a result, people have to give up smoking.

  Smoking in public places influences non-smokers to start smoking, especially adolescents.When teens see people around them smoking, they will follow them easily.Thus the number of teen smokers will increase.Also asthma(哮喘)and other problems are often seen in children living around smokers.So if it is banned, these places will become safe for children and teenagers.

  Looking from the economic point of view, smoking should be banned to increase work productivity(生產(chǎn)率).Employees(雇員)who smoke usually take breaks to smoke while working.So the number of hours they put in their work is smaller.

  If you see from the environment point of view, smoking should be banned.Smoking causes air pollution.If it is banned, it will help keep the environment from getting worse.

(1)

_________ doesn't belong to a non-smoking place.

[  ]

A.

B.

A hospital

C.

A library
