Learn how to resist the temptation

Do not make yourself less active

Escape your social pressure

Amuse yourself in proper places

Get support from your friends and family

Swear (发誓)not to smoke

   

Giving up smoking will most likely add seven years to one’s life. While many people try to give up and fail, it is not an impossible task. Follow these five tips, and you will be well on your way to giving up smoking.

1.Success in all fields of life begins with firm determination. If you are weak in willpower, you can never do anything. However, if you make up your mind, once and for all, that you are giving up the habit, whenever you want a smoke, you will remember your promise and not give in.

2.If you sit around doing nothing there is a higher chance that you will light up a cigarette and relax. Fill your spare time with sports and energetic activities. Try to feel how good it is to get your blood circulating and to breathe in air deeply. If you are not the athletic type, then walking will have the same benefit as other kinds of sports.

3.If going to a bar means that you are going to have a drink and then light up, maybe it is better to avoid that place for the time being. Once you have truly stopped smoking and you feel how good it is, you can go anywhere and not be tempted. But while you are in the transition phase, it is better to carefully choose where you will spend your recreational time.

4.Whenever you get a desire to put a cigarette in you mouth, replace it with something that will help you rather than harm you. Drinking small amounts of water throughout the day is not only a good way to help you give up smoking, but it is also a great way to stay healthy. You should drink eight glasses of water per day, if you can. If you need to put something solid in your mouth, then eat a piece of fruit.

5.Tell them that you are giving up smoking for health reasons. Your true friends will support you and not offer you cigarettes. Your family and loved ones will similarly support your efforts and help you to avoid situations where you may feel you have to smoke because of social pressure.

Find Which Direction Is South

Do you have a good sense of direction? If not, please take with you a compass. But if you forget to take a compass, you can still find your way.  

It’s never a good idea to imagine that the family member who was entrusted(委托)with the job of map-reading actually knows where the family is. You can tell by the slightly confused load on their faces that nothing on the ground seems to match the map. Never mind. The shu is shining and it’s still morning. If you don’t know the exact time, you can still find out where south is, but you’ll need to be patient.  

①Find a straight sick and put it in the ground in a place where you can mark its shadow.  

②Try to position the stick as vertically(垂直)as you can. You can check this by making a simple plumb line (铅锤线)with a piece of string and weight. You haven’t got any string? OK, use a thread from your clothes with a button tied at the end to act as a weight.  

③Mark the end of the shadow cast by the stick.  

④Wait approximately half an hour and mark the end of the shadow again.  

⑤Keep doing this until you have made several marks.  

⑥The mark nearest the stick will represent the shortest shadow, which is cast at midday, when the sun is highest in the sky and pointing to the exact south.  

⑦Pick a point in the distance along the line between the shortest shadow and the stick.  

⑧That point is south of where you are.  

⑨Now you can turn the map, like you did before, and find which way you should be travelling.  

1.To find the direction, we ought to be patient probably because

A. it is not easy to find a proper stick      B. it is not easy to position the stick

C. it takes hours to make the marks        D. it takes about half an hour to make the marks

2.The passage would probably be most helpful to       .  

A. those who draw maps           B. those who get lost

C. those who make compasses       D. those who do experiments
