There are two very bad decisions that Holden has in this book. One of which is his smoking habits, “I must have smoked about three cartons that day” (p.161).

Smoking cigarettes is by far the main contributor to lung cancer. Cigarette smoke contains over 60 known carcinogens. The time a person smokes, as well as the rate of smoking, increases the person’s chance of developing lung cancer. If a person stops smoking, this chance steadily decreases as damage to the lungs is repaired and cancer causing agents are gradually removed. Tobacco companies are not responsible for what people do in their free time they are simply making a product that people like and making money in the meantime.

Also, like in passage one, I need to show my readers what the author is revealing. Revised: Passage 2 Studies show due to cigarette smoke exposure, majority of smokers start smoking before they are adults (Wakefield 1). More shockingly, more than a quarter of those people smoked their first cigarette before they reached the age of ten. In addition, Wakefield states that if parent’s smoke, it is much more likely that the child will also smoke.
