1. Comment on the dominant variety of prose (narrative, expository or descriptive) present in
of the following passages. Write a brief critical appreciation of each passage in about
250 words each:
a) Smoking is hazardous and the dangers of smoking are very serious. It can lead to both
major and minor health problems for the smokers. A smokers inhales a substance
containing about 43 cancer-causing compounds besides four hundred other toxins
including nicotine and tar. Nicotine leads to smoking addiction. Tar clogs the lungs and
inhibits the body's capacity to breathe; it causes lung and throat cancer, heart disease.
emphysema, bronchitis, and lung disorders. Another thing is people who don't smoke
also suffer the effects of passive smoking through breathing in "second-hand smoke
from smoker's cigarettes. There may still be smoke particles in the air even if it doesn't
seem smoky. One of the dangers of passive smoking is that particles from smoke in the
air are smaller than in smoke drawn directly from a cigarette and can penetrate deeper
into the lungs. A non-smoker who lives with a smoker may be exposed to about 1% of
their tobacco smoke from passive smoking. This can increase their chances of
developing lung cancer or dying from a heart attack. The same applies to people who
work in a smoky atmosphere. These are the reasons why I think that smoking is very
dangerous.​
