“Everybody in this city wants a car,and I’m no different.A car brings with it the freedom to travel”,said a friend of mine while reading a car magazine.I might not agree with him,but he was probably speaking for a fast growing number of middle-class Chinese.While it is true that all the waiting,walking,being part of a crowd are somewhat unpleasant,there are many problems which can develop when our lives depend too much on this invention.
First of all,in terms of polluting the environment,driving a car is one of the worst things a person can do.Beijing now finds itself at the top of the list of the most polluted capital cities in the world with Mexico City in the second place.Research also shows that by 2010 around 90% of total pollutants in Shanghai will have come from cars.These pollutants are extremely dangerous to our health.They can damage(损害) the lungs,cause cancers(癌症) and damage the brain.
Apart from environmental problems,depending too much on cars also creates social problems such as traffic jams(阻塞),road accidents,and noise pollution.The jeeps that proudly drive through the narrow hutongs in Beijing as if they are in a race often make me angry,and to make it worse,these drivers seldom respect the people who ride bicycles.
Of course we cannot forget the advantages that cars bring us when we need to travel far and to save time,but I often find it faster to cycle from one place to another within the city of Beijing,especially with the growing traffic jams.
Since people travel further and more often than before,cars will certainly be important in the future.At the same time,however,let us work hard to make sure that this invention brings us a more convenient(方便的)lifestyle rather than trouble and illnesses.
“在这个城市的每一个人都想要一辆车,我也不例外.车子带来了自由旅行.”,我的一个朋友在读汽车杂志的时候跟我说.我可能不是很赞同他的观点,但是,他的话大概是为快速增长的中国中产阶级而说.当我们的生活太依赖于这个发明,很多令人不快的问题都将变得更为严重,像是等待,行走,将车停在很拥挤的地方.
首先,在污染环境的条款中,开车是一个人可以做的最坏的事情之一.现在北京发现自己出现在世界上污染最严重的首都城市名单的顶部,同墨西哥城一起,名列第二.研究同时表明,2010年上海90%的污染来自于汽车.这些污染物对我们的健康极为有害.他们可能损害肺,造成癌症,还能损害大脑.
除了环境问题,过分依赖汽车也增加了社会问题,比如交通阻塞,交通事故和噪音污染.吉普车骄傲的穿梭于北京狭窄的胡同里,就好像他们在比赛,我对此很生气.更糟糕的是,那些驾驶都从来都不尊重那些骑自行车的人.
当然,我们不能忘记,当我们需要长途旅行或者节省时间时,汽车给我们带来的好处.但是,我常常发现,在北京骑自行车从一个地方到另一个地方比汽车更快,特别是在日益严重的交通阻塞时.
由于人们比以前旅行的更多更远,汽车将肯定变得越来越重要.同时,无论如何,比起麻烦和问题,让我们努力令这个发明在我们的生活方式带来更多的便利.
可能不是很流畅,不过已经尽力了哦,
