Task: Write about a law in your country
Couple of years ago a new law was being created in my country. The title of this law is the “Smoke-Free Environments Act». According to this lex people not allowed to smoke in public places such as restaurants, coffee, bus stations, night clubs, etc. From a social point of view, I think it’s the great law and good opportunity for smokers to quit. Other people not obligated to exist in a big cloud of smoke and reek. Personally, I support this act with my both hands, because I don’t want to smell like an ash-pot any time I visit some bar or restaurant. Not to mention the danger to my health.
A lot of my friends are smokers. Right after the law was being made some of them spoke harshly about our government and all its activities, but in present time they are accustomed to the status quo. Also, I noticed that our town has become cleaner and most of the people
observe the law. I believe that it’s a good thing and the first step to a healthier nation.

A couple of years ago, a new law was *being created* in my country. The title of this law *is* the “Smoke-Free Environments Act». According to this lex law, people are not allowed to smoke in public places such as restaurants, coffee cafés, bus stations, night clubs, etc. From a social point of view, I think it’s the a great law and a good opportunity for smokers to quit. Other people/non-smokers are not/no longer obligated to exist in a big cloud of smoke and reek. Personally, I support this act with my both hands both of my hands, because I don’t want to smell like an ash-pot any time I visit some bar or restaurant. Not to mention the danger to my health.A lot of my friends are smokers. Right after the law was being made some of them spoke harshly about our government and all its activities, but in present time they are accustomed to the status quo. Also, I noticed that our town has become cleaner and most of the people observe the law. I believe that it’s a good thing and the first step to a healthier nation.
*Tenses*: Be careful here with your tenses. "Being created", is the continuous past, implying that the law was in the process of being made, but was not yet made permanent in your country. Then in the next sentence, you said "the title of this law is...". This is the present tense. It would be better for you to say "a new law was created in my country". This shows that the law is now permanent and that you can presently say the name of the law is the "Smoke-Free Environments Act".
Very good! :)
