There are a lot of reasons why you shouldn't smoke.

Then why do you continue smoking?

I am sure that you know that smoking harms your body.

Maybe you do it because you haven't really become conscious about all the effects smoking has.

Some of them include the way smoking affects your health, you spend a lot of money on cigarettes, and when you smoke, you are not respecting people around you.

Paragraph 1
A. Main Idea/ Punto principal (Posición y Primera razón)
B. Example, Evidence/ Ejemplo, evidencia + Explain your evidence
C. Link to Topic/ Hacer la conexión con la idea principal
D.Concluding Statement/ Conclusión (Resumir A, B, y C en diferentes palabras)

The first reason why you shouldn't smoke is because smoking affects your health.

If you smoke, your physical condition will be negatively affected, so it will be very difficult fo ryou to succeed in sports.

Also, smoking produces lethal diseases like cancer and reduces the length and quality of your life.

Maybe you don't notice all the physical effects of smoking immediately, but you surely will be sorry one day.

Paragraph 2
A. Main Idea/ Punto principal (Posición y Primera razón)
B. Example, Evidence/ Ejemplo, evidencia + Explain your evidence
C. Link to Topic/ Hacer la conexión con la idea principal
D.Concluding Statement/ Conclusión (Resumir A, B, y C en diferentes palabras)

Each time you smoke, you will spend more and more money.

The second reason why you shouldn't smoke is because of all the money that you spend on it.

By this time, you will pay whatever it costs to smoke.

Maybe you begin smoking when someone offers you a cigarette, but there will be a day when you feel the need of a cigarette.

All the money spent on cigarettes could have been spent on something better, don't you think?

Paragraph 3
A. Main Idea/ Punto principal (Posición y Primera razón)
B. Example, Evidence/ Ejemplo, evidencia + Explain your evidence
C. Link to Topic/ Hacer la conexión con la idea principal
D.Concluding Statement/ Conclusión (Resumir A, B, y C en diferentes palabras)

Also many people don't like the smell of cigarettes, so they will not enjoy your company.

When you smoke, you not only harm yourself, but you also harm all the people around you.

The last reason why you shouldn't smoke is out of respect for the people around you.

You must not be so selfish; you should at least avoid smoking in front of people who don't smoke.

Is that something you strive for?

Conclusion
Part A: Restate your thesis (your position)
Part B: Summarize your reasons (resumir tus tres razones.)
Part C: What the audience benefits from agreeing with you (beneficios que el lector obtiene de estar de acuerdo con usted.)
Part D: Clincher (strong message at the end)/ Termina con una línea dramática (similar al enganche)

Rearrange the sentences below so the Conclusion makes sense.

I have expressed a few reasons why you should not smoke, so I hope for those who smoke, you can make a smarter decision.

Think about all the people who love you, like family who do not want to witness you suffering or be sick.

It will be a pity if you decide to continue smoking.

Remember, "If you can dream it, you can do it!."

In addition to all the reasons I have listed, I would encourage you to reflect on how much you love yourself and whether or not you want to continue to harm yourself.

If you decide to stop smoking, I would like to be the first to say, "Congratulations!"
