B: It’s nice to be home again, Mom.
A: Oh, you smell terribly of alcohol and tobacco. You didn’t smoke or drink before you left home a year ago. How did you get hooked?
B: As an assistant engineer, I had to work might shifts often. I felt lonely and began to drink and smoke. That helped me to relax.
A: So gradually you drank more and more?
B: Yeah, first it was a drink at night, then two, then a bottle, and then I drank to wake up.
A: Oh, I simply can’t imagine my handsome son to be a drunk and a heavy smoker now. Can’t you stop?
B: It’s difficult. I lack the will-power to stop.
A: But remember the dangers of heavy drinking and smoking. Sooner or later you’ll develop high blood pressure, heart trouble, or liver trouble.
B: There are alcoholics all over the world, and they are still living.
A: I’m sorry that drinking and smoking ate diseases that strike young and old, rich and [poor, and all walks of life. Young must get help and stop.
B: OK, I’ll try my best.
