Harm of Smoking-吸烟的危害

Harm of Smoking (A)
Dear Chairman,
This letter may sound strange as a request, but I feel compelled to do so rather than call you. It is a complaint about those smoking colleagues who smoke in our meetings.
I am not making a huge fuss about triviality, but most, if not all,of our women colleagues agree with me. Smoking may add to some men＇s manly manners, but smoking among so many people is really a nuisance.
The smokers themselves, however, seem not to care or know the harm they are doing to their health and our health. I do wish to stop them, but I am not the right man to do so, I am afraid.
That is why I ask you for help. I speak on behalf of all nonsmokers who have not complained for their nice manners and their personal friendship for the smokers. But I do hope something is to be done about it.
You don＇t have to answer me by words. All we expect is a cleaner and safer meeting room.
Thank you.
Yours fondly,
So and So

Harm of Smoking (B)
Dear Chairman,
It seems that we have a meeting each week and do not need to write to each other, but I think the pen speaks better than the tongue.Each time, as we arrive at the meeting-room one after another, there is rising in each corner a huge and dark smoke-cloud, choking the smokers and the non-smokers to coughs and sneezes. Then the
meeting begins in the flame of smoke and storm of cough. I am very sorry for you, my dear chairman, because no one is able or wants to hear your speech.
Each time I sit with women for they don＇t smoke. I find that they share my ideas about smoking. We don＇t mind very much if they smoke outside, or in the smoke-area of the meeting-room if you have such a compartment made, but smoking among so many people is really a nuisance.
Apparently most of the smokers don＇t know that cigarette does harm to their health and to our health. They should be told about all that reportedly die each year of diseases associated with smoking.They ought to be terrified and warned by the frequently reported lungcancers on the part of those heavy smokers. They should also be told that their smoking does greater harm to the non-smokers beside them.
You don＇t have to answer by mail. The best answer you can give is to blow all the out-puffed smoke out of the meeting-room before each meeting.
Yours
