　　Saying No to Drugs

　　Good morning, everyone. I am here today to talk to you on the topic of Saying no to drugs. My message to you all is never to try drugs. Say "No" every time anyone ever tries to give or sell you drugs. Don't speak to that person again. Drugs are addictive, so please do not think that you might be stronger than other people. Even taking a drug just once is very dangerous.

　　Now, let me give you some reasons for my opinion. First, drugs are illegal. Buying or selling drugs, having drugs—these are all against the law. Breaking the law is wrong and it is dangerous too. Now you have a bright future waiting for you, but if you start doing illegal things, all that will change—if you commit crimes you will be punished.

　　Second, drugs can be very bad for your health. Drugs are powerful chemicals. They give you very high blood pressure; they do strange things to your heart rate; they stop you from eating properly; they change the way you breathe. Drug addicts feel ill most of the time. They have a lot of pain. Do you want this? Many drug addicts share needles and become infected with deadly diseases like AIDS. Drugs also make people behave strangely. Drug addicts fall out of windows and hurt themselves with knives and broken glass. Addicts can easily take too much of their drug—and then they die. Please do not hurt yourself in any of these ways. Say "No" to drugs!

　　Drugs cost a lot of money. If you take drugs you will soon be poor. To get money to buy drugs you will do stupid and illegal things. You will lose your friends and have a lot of trouble in your life.

　　Often people take drugs because they are unhappy. Maybe they have love or work problems. But drugs cannot solve these problems. There is no connection between them and drugs. People need to talk about problems, get advice and change their behaviour—not take dangerous drugs.

　　Taking drugs encourages people to make them and sell them. You are making a big social problem worse. Because of you other people may hurt themselves and die prematurely, even if you don't. You make the world a worse place.

　　Finally, please remember: addiction grows. The first time you need just a little crack cocaine, but every time you will want more. You cannot control the drug; it will control you.

　　Please listen to me—and say "No" to drugs!

　　早上好，同學們。今天我來這里和你談一個關于毒品拒絕的話題。我給你們所有人的信息是不要嘗試毒品。每次有人試圖向你出售毒品時，都要說“不”。不要再跟那個人說話了。毒品是上癮的，所以請不要認為你比別人強。即使只吃一次藥也是很危險的。

　　現在，讓我給你一些理由來說明我的觀點。首先，毒品是非法的。買賣毒品，吸毒，這些都是違法的。違法是錯誤的，也是危險的。現在你有一個光明的未來等著你，但如果你開始做非法的事情，這一切都會改變，如果你犯了罪，你將受到懲罰。

　　其次，藥物可能對你的健康有害。藥物是強有力的化學品。他們給你非常高的血壓，他們對你的心率做了奇怪的事情;它們阻止你正常進食;它們改變了你的呼吸方式。吸毒者大部分時間感到不適。他們有很多痛苦。你要這個嗎?許多吸毒者共用針頭，染上艾滋病等致命疾病。毒品也會使人行為怪異。吸毒者從窗戶摔下來，用刀和碎玻璃傷害自己。癮君子很容易服用太多藥物，然后就死了。請不要以任何方式傷害自己。對毒品說“不”!

　　毒品花了很多錢。如果你吸毒，你很快就會很窮。為了賺錢買毒品，你會做愚蠢和非法的事情。你會失去你的朋友，在你的生活中會有很多麻煩。

　　人們經常吸毒是因為他們不快樂。也許他們有愛情或工作問題。但是藥物不能解決這些問題。他們與藥物沒有關系。人們需要談論問題，征求建議，改變行為，而不是服用危險藥物。

　　吸毒鼓勵人們制造并出售它們。你把社會問題弄得更糟了。因為你，其他人可能會傷害自己，過早死去，即使你沒有，你使世界變得更糟。

　　最后，請記住：吸毒成癮。第一次你只需要一點點可卡因，但每次你想要更多。你不能控制藥物，它會控制你。

　　請聽我說，對毒品說“不”!
