W: Yes, er...I quite agree that smoking should be banned in all public places.I don't smoke myself and cigarette smoking bothers me.I think it bothers most non-smokers.
M: Constable Hardwick, what do you think?
W: (2)_______________________.I mean, in the street it doesn't harm anyone but the smoker himself.And er...that's the smoker's business.
M: Miss Lessing?
W: I don't agree at all.I don't think it helps to ban things.If you ban smoking in all public places,more people will want to do it.People always want to do things that they are not allowed to.
M: And now, can we have your opinion, John?
M: (3)_______________________.In the first place, it's a dirty habit.In the second place, it's dangerous to your health.
