课件25张PPT。 SmokingLetter-Writing
on QuittingMy friend ,Zhou Wei has become addicted to smoking !He is killing himself!Dear friend,
Haven’t seen you for a long time. How are you getting along? To be honest, I feel very worried and upset because the doctor told me I had a serious problem with my lungs. I have tried to stop smoking several times. I am OK for two days and then I feel really sick and irritable and I have to start smoking again. I also know smoking is a bad habit and harmful to others, but I just can’t seem to give it up. Do you have any useful tips?
With love
yours

Dear Zhou Wei,
I’m sorry you have had so much trouble
trying to stop smoking, but I am glad you
are still trying. I hope the tips below will
help you.
First of all, be determined and don’t
give up. The more often you try, the more
Likely you are to eventually succeed.
Second, it’s helpful to make a plan to
quit. Fix a date and do it step by step.
It is a good idea to do something else
such as listening to music, do some
walking,drinking some water,etc. Never
reach for a cigarette.
Besides it’s necessary to relax. If you feel stressed, take some relaxation exercises. Relax by breathing deeply.
Yet there is no quick and easy way of quitting smoking. It’s normal to feel sick during the first few days. So, It needs your great efforts and determination. Keep up the good work until you succeed eventually.
Good luck and best wishes,
lily
