Let’s have an example of an informative essay. Title:

Causes and Effects of Smoking among Students
Smoking is one of the most dangerous widespread
phenomena that threaten lives of a huge number of
people worldwide. It starts as a way of having fun but
ends as an addiction that is therefore so difficult to give
up.
Today, we often hear of “smoking among students.” So
why do students smoke and what are the effects that
smoking has on them?
There are many reasons behind the phenomenon of
smoking among students. To start with, students
smoke because they are curious and want to discover the
world of those who smoke. They are just trying to have
some fun when they smoke the first cigarette. Other
students take up smoking due to the family problems,
especially when they see their parents quarrel. Moreover,
some students smoke since they think cigarette would
relieve stress they had during the day, especially at
school. Last but not the least, students try to imitate adult
smokers because they want to show that they are adults,
too.
If we look at the consequences of smoking, we will find o
many. Smoking causes cancer. As a result, the
addict students would suffer from health problems that
end in death. Another effect is that after certain years, the
addict would develop respiratory problems and will face a
lot of problems in running without losing breath. So,
asthma, bronchitis, and emphysema are always a
lingering threat. One more important effect of smoking is
that it
causes a lot of anger for the addict. Whenever they lack
cigarettes, they start reacting angrily and strangely.
To sum up, smoking is an ongoing threatening danger for
addicts and might affect the next generation.
The best solution is prevention according to proverb that
says, “Prevention is better than cure.”

Bamboos
The bamboo is a very useful plant. The bamboo is the
giant of the grass family. Some bamboos can grow as tall
as trees. They can grow in lowlands or in rolling hills.
There are different kind of bamboos.

The bamboo has many uses. The most important use of

bamboo is for building houses. Whole bamboo is used for
posts and beams of houses. Split bamboo is used for
roofs, walls, and floors. It is also used in fishing and
farming. Different kinds of fish traps are made from
bamboo. The farmers use the bamboo as a fence for their
garden and farm.

The bamboo has many other uses. It can be made into

toys, furniture, and utensils. It is a very useful plant.
