There is no best way to deal with pests in
agriculture. Pesticides are commonly used but this may
cause many problems. Combining different management
operation is the most effective way to control pests.
Firstly, the chemicals in pesticides may build up
as residues in the environment. This reduces the quality of
farm products.
As well as, pests can become resistant to
pesticides gradually. This means that newer and stronger
ones have to be developed.
Some pesticides affect non target animals such as fish and
bees. This affects the natural balance.
To wipe out agriculture pests completely may be
very expensive. Sometimes pests damage costs less than
the method of control.

In this modern era, there are still some parents

after finishing their education because it is only through

what she wants in life. A woman who works is not an

proud of her achievements since marriage is actually an
equal partnership.
Therefore, parents should not think that girls
should receive less education just because they will get
married one day.

Cigarette smokers are said to have a chance of
getting various fatal diseases. But I think others people’s
cigarette smoke seems to increase to chances of non-
smokers getting a wide range a cancers.
First, although passive smokers inhale less
tobacco smoke, researchers point out that the smoke they
breathe in is richer in many toxic chemicals. Of course,
these substances will harm their body in the long run.
Second, the recent research reported that the risk
of getting cancers not normally associated with smoking
also rose among passive smokers. The risk of leukemia
rose 6-8 times and the risk of cervical cancer increased 3-
4 times.
Third, past studies have found out that products of
cigarette such as coinine and thiocynate turn up in the
blood, urine and saliva of non-smoking adults, children
and fetuses that have been exposed to smokers. These
substances are the main causes of various cancers.
In short, the effects of exposure to the cigarette
smoking of others are greater than have been previously
suspected. That is why, passive smokers have more

expose.
