word/media/image1.gif汽车： The Set Of PiCtUreS PreSent a distinguishable Contrast Of the role Of the automobile OVer time:

a Cen tury ago, people CeIebrated the inven ti On Of SUCh rapid equipme nt for tran SPOrtati on, WhiCh could take US to WhereVer We want. Yet now, particularly in Urban areas, the automobile is more of a trouble as its abundance results in freque nt traffic jams. DriVerS in the SeC Ond PiCtUre eve n fall asleep Whe n trapped in this “disaster ” .

TraffiC jams have Iong bee n a problem that PreOCCUPieS many metropolita n CitieS SUCh as NeW York, Tokyo, and Beiji ng. The harm and loss they cost are in calculable. FirSt and foremost, they WaSte a huge amount of people ' S time PaSSed Waiting idly in their cars. SeCondly, CarS in traffic jams PrOdUCe more exhaust that exacerbates air pollution. MoStimPortantly, a SeVere traffic jam might results in the dysfu nction Of a whole city, WhiCh Can affect reside nts ' life as well as bus in esses and in dustries.

In my OPinion, it is an Urge nt task to reduce the freque ncy of traffic jams. The first SteP should be to Cha nge people ' S IifeStyIeS fun dame ntally so that the Car is no Ion ger Part and ParCeI of their everyday life. Gover nments also n eed to apply attractive measures to draw CitiZe ns to adopt means of PUbIiC tran SPOrtati on, for in Sta nce, to reduce PriCeS and improve releva nt facilities. In short, the CeaSe of traffic jams will largely ameliorate life quality in cities.

译文：

这一组图展示了汽车在我们的社会中曾经扮演过的两种截然不同的角色：几个世纪以前，人们在庆祝发明了一 种如此快速的交通工具，有了它我们可以去任何我们想去的地方。但是现在，特别是在城市地区，汽车倒更是一种 麻烦，因为数目巨大的汽车导致了频繁的堵车现象发生。第二副图中的司机在这场“灾难”中都睡着了。

堵车在很多大城市中是一个困扰人们很久的问题，比如在纽约、东京和北京。它造成的损失是无法估量的。首 先，堵车使人们无聊地在车中等待，浪费了大量宝贵时间。其次，堵车时汽车产生了更多的废气，进一步加剧了空 气污染。最重要的是，严重的堵车事件会导致整个城市的功能瘫痪，影响居民的正常生活和工商业的正常进行。

我认为，努力降低堵车发生的频率是我们的一项紧急任务。第一步措施就是要改变人们的生活方式，并从根本 上减弱汽车在我们的生活中的重要作用。 政府还要采取有效的措施来促进市民利用公共交通工具， 如通过降低价格、

改进相关设施等。总的来说，减少堵车可以大大改进城市中的生活质量。
