Assalammualaikum wr. Wb
The honorable ones the
English Teacher, Mrs. Oryza and all my dear friends.
In
the name of Almighty God, the most gracious and merciful that has given us the
health and blessing in our life, so we can keep meeting and gather in this
classroom.
Ladies and gentlemen
In
these days, more people have experienced respiratory problems. This can be
caused by contaminated air or unhealthy lifestyles. One cause of air polluted
is tobacco smoke. And unhealthy lifestyle is smoking. People who daily inhale
cigarette smoke, although not smoking tend to be more susceptible to disease
than active smokers. That means, smoking is very dangerous for all people not
only for the smoker. Passive smokers who do not participate in smoking, poorly
accept the consequences of active smokers.
Ladies and gentlemen,
According
to Wikipedia, Cigarette is a cylinder of paper length between 70 to 120 mm with
a diameter about 10 mm containing tobacco leaves that have been chopped. Beside
containing nicotine and tar, cigarettes still store various hazardous
chemicals. They are:
1.
Benzene, is also known as benzene, a flammable organic chemical
compound.
2.
Cadmium, is a highly toxic and radioactive metal.
3.
Methanol Acetylene, an unsaturated chemical compound that is also the
simplest of the alkaline hydrocarbons.
4.
Ammonia, is highly toxic in combination with certain elements.
5.
Formaldehyde, a highly toxic liquid used to preserve corpses.
6.
Hydrogen cyanide, a poison used as a fumigant to kill ants. This
substance is also used as a substance maker of plastics and pesticides.
7.
Arsenic, the ingredients found in rat poison.
8.
Carbon monoxide, toxic chemicals found in exhaust fumes of cars
and motorcycles.
Cigarettes
can make their addicters got various diseases. Based on the research, smoking
can cause respiratory problems, dry cough, lung pain. In addition, smoking can
also cause heart attacks, stroke, cancer, impotence, and pregnancy disorders.
Beside, cigarettes also have a negative impact on passive smokers. Passive
smokers may get the same disease risk as active smokers. Including
cardiovascular disease, lung cancer, and respiratory diseases.
Ladies and gentlemen,
Cigarettes
have long been legalized in our country Indonesia. Smokers or students should
continue to be educated about the danger of smoking for themselves and others.
You need to pay attention to the warnings in the pack of cigarette, not just
ignore it. For all of active smokers, love yourself and love the people around
you. Maybe in a few years, the people around you will get the impact after a
while inhaling your cigarette smoke. Do not waste your money and time for
smoking. If there is a problem, tell your closest people. Because cigarettes
are the bridge to the drugs. Say no to cigarettes! Say no to smoke! And say no
to drugs!
That’s
all from me. Thank you so much for your wonderful attention, I hope my speech
can enrich your knowledge and i’m sorry if there is a mistake.
Wassalamu’alaikum.
