　　When I told John, he was 　　11　　 as I expected him to be．“You have your whole life to work,”he said．“Your 　　12　　 days are limited．You can’t afford to waste them．”I stood before him with my head 　　13　　, trying to think of the 　　14　　 that would explain to him why my dream of buying my mom a house and having money in my pocket was worth facing his 　　15　　 in me．

　　“How much are you going to make at this job, son?”he asked．“3.5 dollars an hour,”I replied．

　　“Well,”he asked,“is ＄3.5 an hour the price of a dream?”

　　"Everyone knows that second-hand smoke is bad, 28 they don't know about this," said Dr. Jonathan P. Winickoff, the lead author of the study and an assistant professor of pediatrics at Harvard Medical School。

　　"When their kids are 29 the house, they might smoke. Or they smoke in the car. Or they strap(用带子捆扎) the kid in the car seat in the back and crack the window and 30 , and they think it's okay because the second-hand smoke isn't getting to their 31 . We needed a term to describe these tobacco toxins that aren't 32 ."

　　Only 65 percent of nonsmokers and 43 percent of smokers agreed with that 40 , which researchers interpreted as acknowledgement of the risks of third-hand smoke.
