<VOA>Russian Prime Minister Calls for Ban on Smoking in Public

Hundreds of thousands of Russians die every year from diseases linked to smoking. The country has one of the highest smoking rates in the world. Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev wants to reduce the number of smokers in his country. He has proposed a ban on smoking in public places by twenty-fifteen, and a ban on all tobacco advertising. However, many Russians say they will continue to smoke even if there is a ban. They say laws against smoking violate their right to make their own decisions about their health.

Toxic substances more than 200 kinds are included in the smoke of the cigarette. In them, nicotine, tar, carbon monoxide are famous and danger in particular.

I think it is free to smoke. However I think that I have to prevent harm from being given to other people.

<ELLLO>Sushi

Sushi is popular food in japan. We can buy it in a supermarket, kind of buy a tray, about a thousand yen, or we can go down to the conveyor belt restaurant. In there, it's 130 yen for one plate, and usually there is two of us that go and usually we spend about one and a half thousand yen (1,500), about ten plates.

Recently, there are various types of sushi, such as hamburgers and fried shrimp. And, foreigners that hate raw fish can eat sushi.

<BBC>Online shopping

High street shops are finding it difficult to stay in business because sales are down for the third year in a row. On the other hand the trend of online shopping is increasing and a quarter of all Christmas shopping will be done online. Retailers are making it much easier to buy things over the internet.

By the Internet shopping, I use the organization to receive orders on the screen of the Web browser, and to send a product by a charge account, a delivery to home supplier in many cases. The method of the settlement diverges into many branches and, other than the withdrawal from a credit card, the transfer to the bank account, the store transfer of the convenience store, increases when the electronic money that the companies contribute is available.


I think when we do shopping, it is important to choose a method in accord with one's lifestyle and way of thinking. Because online shopping has various good points and a bad point.
