He holds it carelessly, like an adult, yet in plain view. He looks around to make sure that the other guys are watching. If you ask how long he has smoked, you will find out that he started when he was eleven. But now, he is an addicted smoker. If you ask him why he smokes, he will probably say that he enjoys it. ① you wonder if that is really the reason. It seems to me that the causes of teenage smoking are more complex. More specifically, they have more to do with the ambiguous role of teenagers in society. Teenage smoking is ② by personal insecurity, a desire to be like adults, and peer pressure. The ③ cause of teenage smoking is the personal insecurity young people often feel. They are at a different age. They are no longer children, ④__ the ways in which they have behaved in the past are inappropriate. On the other hand, they are not yet adults; ⑤ , they do not know the ways of the adult world. This conflict can ⑥ feelings of insecurity. ⑦ , if children want attention from their parents or a toy or sweet, they can cry to draw attention to their desires. For teenagers ⑧ , crying will be labeled childish and they will be told to “act their age.” Often, ⑨ , the teenager does not know how to act his or her age. ⑩ teenagers do not know what to do, they often turn to smoking as a way to hide their nervousness and insecurities.

"The Child is Father of the Man," wrote the English poet William Wordsworth. Adults today are as aware as Wordsworth of the importance of childhood experiences that a cherished and well-behaved child has a better chance of growing into a balanced , loving and law-abiding adult than an unloved one. (1) The Children Act of 1989, created to give children much-needed protection against abuse, in the process legalized the ideology: the child comes first.

But while the nurturing of self-esteem in children is now accepted as a requisite of their development, the social and economic demands on over-worked, harassed parents often prevent them from putting this theory into practice where it matters most—in the home. (2) Indeed, much of the time it seems that parents themselves are suffering a crisis of self-esteem.

Reports show that teenagers are increasingly obese and slothful. They watch on average between four and six horns of television a day. No longer subject to the discipline of the evening family meal-the cradle of manners and civil behavior-one in three people eats his or her dinner in front of the television. (3) The fashion industry is increasingly targeting guilty parents and their demanding children; it is not uncommon to see children wearing designer jeans and the latest trainers that they will soon grow out of.

Pre-Christmas toy advertising is designed to strike terror into the hearts of parents and make their children even more demanding and greedy. (4) Every office in the land harbors parents who are exasperated especially by boys who are arrogant, rude, boastful and undisciplined. Many parents are too guilt-ridden or too bewildered by conflicting child-rearing advice to do anything other than wringtheir hands with worry. (5) The language of civil rights has entered childhood. Children as young as six are now so keenly aware of their "rights" that they freely complain of "unfair" treatment by their elders.

To that new order we oppose the greater conception — the moral order. A good society is able to face schemes of world domination and foreign revolutions alike without fear.

Since the beginning of our American history we have been engaged in change — in a perpetual peaceful revolution — a revolution which goes on steadily, quietly adjusting itself to changing conditions— without the concentration camp or the quick-lime in the ditch. The world order which we seek is the cooperation of free countries, working together in a friendly, civilized society.

This nation has placed its destiny in the hands and heads and hearts of its millions of free men and women, and its faith in freedom under the guidance of God. Freedom means the supremacy of human rights everywhere. Our support goes to those who straggle to gain those rights or keep them. Our strength is our unity of purpose.

To that high concept there can be no end save victory.
