Cars—The Complication of Our Times
汽車——現(xiàn)代社會(huì)的難題
Conceive that you are sitting in front of porch indulging in the shining sun when your neighbor comes back in his annoying car with the buzzing (zooming/humming) sound and its exhaust pipe puffing out horrible black smoke. Would you think about the question whether the cars are becoming a blessing or a menace to human beings? Would you be aware that cars have become a formidable complication of our times?
設(shè)想一下，你正坐在自家的門廊前享受著明媚的陽(yáng)光，這時(shí)，你的鄰居開著那輛嘟嘟作響、排氣管冒著可怕黑煙的汽車過(guò)來(lái)了。你會(huì)認(rèn)為汽車是我們?nèi)祟惖母ｌ磉€是威脅呢?你會(huì)意識(shí)到汽車已經(jīng)是我們社會(huì)的一個(gè)巨大難題嗎?
In our modern days, cars are apt to be the premier reliance of people to get to work or to drop their children off at school. However, some reckless drivers put themselves and others in danger. About two hundred casualties are deprived of their lives in traffic accidents everyday in China.
在現(xiàn)代社會(huì)里，私家車正逐漸成為人們上下班或者接送孩子上學(xué)時(shí)主要依賴的交通工具。然而，一些莽撞的駕車人卻將自己和他人置于危險(xiǎn)的境地。中國(guó)國(guó)內(nèi)平均每天都有大約200人死于交通事故。
The other drawback of cars is their serious pollution. The composite toxic gas exhausted by the engine will inflict adverse effects on the health of car users and all the innocent pedestrians(passers-by). We should take precaution to the prevalent phenomenon, but it is easy to be underestimated. For example, people with pneumonia would suffer from more attacks be cause of the pollution. The cars' toxic emission would form acid rain. And what's more, no matter how much effort the manufacturers make to renovate the engine to minimize the cars' emissions, it will damage our Earth in one way or another.
汽車的另一個(gè)缺點(diǎn)是污染嚴(yán)重。汽車發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)排放的復(fù)合有毒尾氣對(duì)駕車人和無(wú)辜行人的健康都會(huì)產(chǎn)生有害的影響。這一普遍現(xiàn)象值得引起我們的警惕，卻常常被低估了。比如，污染會(huì)增加肺炎患者的發(fā)病次數(shù)；汽車有毒排放物將會(huì)形成酸雨。不管汽車生產(chǎn)廠商多么盡力改造發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)使有毒排放物最小化，汽車還是會(huì)以種種方式破壞我們的地球。
Lastly, cars might create social problems in a magnitude radius. People depend on their cars so much that they will ignore to physical exercise and end up deteriorating their health. The noises created by cars, must bring disturbances to people who inhabit adjoining highways.
最后一點(diǎn)，汽車可能還會(huì)產(chǎn)生很大范圍的社會(huì)問(wèn)題。人們太依賴汽車，而忽略了自身的體育鍛煉，結(jié)果削弱人體健康狀態(tài)。有些汽車產(chǎn)生的噪音，必然會(huì)干擾居住在公路附近的居民。
In my subjective opinion, in order to create an environmentally friendly and safe world, it is necessary for related municipal sectors to adopt constrained decrees, such as setting vehicular allocated quotas and pegging the permits in number. Secondly, automobile manufacturers should try to improve the efficiency of vehicles, such as finding solutions to recycle the redundant fuel in emission of engine, and muting(diminishing) the noise of a car engine as well. Thirdly, try to streamline the traffic by setting up dedicated bus lanes and giving priority to minibuses or vehicles carrying more than three passengers. In addition, building the pedestrian overpass at the junction is also a good choice.
我個(gè)人的看法是，為了創(chuàng)造一個(gè)有益于環(huán)保和安全的世界，(每個(gè)國(guó)家)各地方相關(guān)政府部門都有必要采取強(qiáng)制法令，例如定出汽車分配限額，并限制發(fā)放許可證的數(shù)量。其次，汽車生產(chǎn)廠商應(yīng)盡力改進(jìn)汽車性能，比如尋找循環(huán)利用尾氣中過(guò)剩燃料的途徑，減小汽車發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)的聲音。第三，努力提高交通運(yùn)輸效率，如設(shè)立公交專道，對(duì)小型巴士和載有3人或3人以上的車輛給予優(yōu)先權(quán)。在交叉路口建立人行天橋也是一個(gè)不錯(cuò)的辦法。
