Yesterday I was shopping for a few items(物品).With nothing to do at home，my son，who just left university，was ready to go together with me.
As I pushed the basket towards the register(收银机)，I checked my items to see how many Ihad，thinking I might go to the Express Line(快速通道) where the sign said“Ten items or less”.
I started to go to that line and my son said，“Mom，you have twelve items！”I said，“I know，but they?e10bre close.”Hesaid，“Why are you in such a hurry to get home？ You should go to the Regular Line because you have over ten items.”
Knowing he was right，I agreed and then pushed the basket to the next line.So I was waiting for my turn there and Iwas just removing my items from the basket to pay for them when a young man came up behind me in line with two items.
I just left the Express Line because I had too many and now I really wanted to get finished.Again，my son came up.
“Mom，he has only two items and the Express Line is very long now.Won't you just let him go first？”I agreed，and theyoung man smiled widely and thanked me several times.

Smoking in indoor public places including public working places，public transport vehicles and some other special outdoor working places has been banned(禁止) in China since January 2011.Let's look at the following advantages of banning smoking.
First，banning smoking will not only help in saving smokers from health problems and diseases，but willalso be good for passive(被动) smokers.When the smoker is smoking in a restaurant，the people around himare sure to breathe in the smoke and suffer from the diseases an active smoker gets.If smoking is banned，spread of thesediseases can be controlled.
Next，banning smoking will put stress on smokers to give up.Since a smoker is prevented from smoking，he will learnhow to live without smoking for long hours.When a smoker doesn't smell or see anybody around him smoking，it might reduce his wish to smoke too.As a result，people have to give up smoking.
Smoking in public places influences nonsmokers to start smoking，especially adolescents.When teens see peoplearound them smoking，they will follow them easily.Thus the number of teen smokers will increase.Also asthma(哮喘)and other problems are often seen in children living around smokers.So if it is banned，these places will become safe forchildren and teenagers.
