It is very important to have healthy teeth. Good teeth help us to chew our food. They also help
us to look nice. How does a tooth go bad? The decay begins in a little crack in the enamel covering of
the tooth. This happens after germs and bits of food have collected there. Then the decay slowly spreads
inside the tooth. Eventually, poison goes into the blood, and we may feel quite ill.
How can we keep our teeth healthy? Firstly, we ought to visit our dentist twice a year. He can fill
the small holes in our teeth before they destroy the teeth. He can examine our teeth to see that they
are growing in the right way. Unfortunately, many people wait until they have toothache before
they see a dentist. Secondly, we should brush our teeth with a toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste at
least twice a day - once after breakfast and once before we go to bed. We can also use wooden
toothpicks to clean between our teeth after a meal. Thirdly, we should eat food that is good for our
teeth and our body: milk, cheese, fish, brown bread, potatoes, red rice, raw vegetables and fresh
fruit. Chocolates, sweets, biscuits and cakes are bad, especially when we eat them between meals.

Smoking is not as common in American as in many other countries. Generally, Americans
smoke less than Europeans and much less than Asians. It is a practice that is becoming less and less
socially acceptable.
Smoking is prohibited in many places. It is not allowed in any public buildings, on any public
transportation (including airplane flights within the United State), in shops, in movies theaters,
schools, and office buildings. The general rule is if you are indoors, then you probably are not
allowed to smoke. The exceptions are bars, nightclubs, and some restaurants. If a restaurant does
allow smoking, it will only be in an area that is designated for smokers. If you are with someone,
even outdoors, it is polite to ask if they mind before you start smoking. [designate: select/ indicate]
The legal smoking age in America is 18. If you are buying cigarettes (or another tobacco
