hook properly so my father helped me put a hook with the worm that was used as bait.

Then, the father practiced how to throw hooks into the river. I tried it too. I was getting bored
because there were no signs of getting fish. Suddenly, I felt the hook move. I immediately moved
the hook up and down. I picked up the hook slowly and managed to get a big enough fish. I’m

creating pollution, smoking also causes many diseases and even death. Nearly a quarter of smokers
die from diseases caused by smoking. There are many other harmful effects of smoking.

First, many researchers have proven that smoking increases the risk of various diseases,
such as heart disease, lung cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, throat cancer, esophageal cancer,
oral cancer, kidney cancer, digestive cancer, impotence, coronary heart disease, and other health
problems.

In addition, there are several medical disorders that can also be caused by smoking, namely
high blood pressure (hypertension), fertility problems, worsening asthma, and inflammation of the
airways, having a higher risk of macular degeneration (gradual loss of vision), cataracts, becoming
more frequent. sore, full of stains on the teeth and gums, develops thrush in the intestines.

Third, the effects of smoking are not only for smokers but also for the surrounding
environment. When smoking, smokers exhale smoke that contains many toxins into the air that
pollute the surrounding environment such as, air pollution, decreased air quality, water pollution,
water quality degradation, fires, garbage problems, spread of toxins, destroying ecosystems, killing
other living things.

Lastly, smoking is dangerous for pregnant women and nursing mothers. Women who
smoke are more likely to experience infertility and miscarriage. When a pregnant woman smokes,
some of the toxins from cigarettes can be passed on to the fetus. These toxins can later affect the
development and function of the baby's lungs. Babies of mothers who smoke are more likely to be
born prematurely, be underweight, and have slower early growth.

In conclution, Smoking should be banned because smoking is useless. Based on the facts
above, it is clear that smoking has many harmful effects not only for smokers but also for the
environment and other people.

Study Alone or Study in Groups ?
In learning, we can choose to study alone or study in groups. Some students prefer to study
alone, while others prefer to study with others. It depends on the opinion of each person. If you ask
me, I prefer to study alone. However, each type of learning has its own advantages.
Self-study advantage. First, more calm and more focused. A calm feeling with no
conversation with other people make us more focus and calm. Second, we are free to set how and
when to learn. We can learn by playing favorite songs so that it makes us study more spirited and
we are also free to set when we want to learn. Third, by self-study we can practice problem solving.
Solve your own problems that make you think logically and analytically.
Group learning advantages. First, we can exchange ideas and learn to discuss. We can learn
to communicate well with others and can get new ideas. Second, more insight that can be
understood. We can ask others about material we don't understand.
Each type of learning has its own advantages, it depends on each individual. For me, self-study
is the best way to learn. Because by studying on my own I can understand my own abilities and can
focus more because I don't chat with other people.
