交通问题的作文英语【实用20篇】

Traffic Safety(交通安全)

Traffic safety is everybodys business. Records show that every year a lot of people die in traffic accidents. Some of the accidents are due to mechanical problems. However, most of them are the results of careless and reckless driving, and could be avoided. A lot of people disregard traffic signals and rules. They drive regardless of speed limits, run through red lights, drive in the wrong direction, talk and laugh while driving, and turn as they wish without giving signals. They dont slow down while approaching crossroads. So many people violate traffic regulations that we cannot put too much emphasis on the importance of traffic safety. Only when everybody thinks traffic safety is everybodys business can we be safe driving on roads and walking on sidewalks.

交通安全人人有责。纪录显示每年有许多人死于车祸。有些车祸是由于机械问题。然而大部分车祸都是疏忽而卤莽驾驶的结果，并且可以避免的。许多人无视于交通号志和规则。他们驾驶时不管车速、闯红灯、逆向行驶、开车时交谈，并且不打灯号就任意转弯。他们接近十字路口时不减速。如此多的人违犯交通规则以致于我们再怎么样强调交通安全的重要性也不为过。唯有当每个人皆认为交通安全是众人的事时，我们在路上开车、在行人道上走路才安全

越来越多汽车进入我们的家庭生活，改善了我们的生活，但同时也带来了很多问题，如塞车和车祸，给家庭和社会带来极大的危害。作为中学生，我们应该怎样做呢?

范文

With more and more cars coming into our families, we are happy that it has greatly improved our life. But unluckily, it has also brought many problems, such as heavy traffic and traffic accidents。

Traffic safety is everybodys business. We must obey the rules. For example, we must walk on walk side, when we cross zebra – crossing, stop and look right and left, then go across fast. Don’t play football on the road .we can tell our parents not to drink before they drive, not to run through red lights, not to talk and laugh while driving etc。

We can say cars are coming into our life, but only when everybody thinks traffic safety is everybodys business can we be safe driving on roads and walking on sidewalks。

随着越来越多的汽车进入我们的家庭,我们是快乐的,它大大提高了我们的生活。但不巧的是,它也带来了许多问题,如交通拥挤和交通事故。

交通安全是每个人的事。我们必须遵守规则。例如,我们必须走一边走,当我们穿过斑马——穿越,停下来看看左和右,然后快速穿过。不要在马路上踢足球。我们可以告诉我们的父母不开车前喝酒,不要闯红灯,开车时不说话和大笑等。

我们可以说汽车进入我们的生活,但是只有当所有人都认为交通安全是每个人的业务我们可以安全驾驶在道路和人行道上走。

Safety is very important. We often hear people say “safety first”. As a middle school student, we should learn to protect ourselves from every possible danger. Here are some things I do. I hope you can follow them.

On your way to school and home. You should obey the traffic rules. You should walk on the right side of the road. Don’t ride your bike too fast.

During school, you can’t fight with each other. Don’t play with fire. Don’t bring knife to school. Don’t go out of school without your teacher’s permission.

When you are at home, remember not to ask the door for strangers. Don’t give your home address, phone number or personal information to anybody else too casually.

Amongall means of transportation, I like bicycle most. Its cheap as well aspopular.

Thereare many advantages to ride the bicycle. In the first place, riding bicycle makesme feel independent. I can go anywhere by bicycle. Especially during rushhours, I can still move freely. Secondly, using a bicycle is good forenvironment protection, because it wont emit any waste gas. Moreover, bicycle ridingis also a good sport. While riding a bicycle, I can exercise myself, which ishealthful to me.

Inmy free time, I often ride my bicycle to get around in the downtown area or inthe countryside, so as to relax myself. Its really a nice outdoor activity forme, I think.

Do You Prefer High Salary or A Promising Job?

When it comes to the choice of career, some people prefer the job with high salary. Why?

Their reasons run as following: to begin with, high salary can bring them happy life; in addition, with high salary, they can do whatever they want.

But some others prefer to choose a job with promising future. They base their choice on the following reasons: on one hand, a promising job itself means a raise and promotion in the future; on another hand, job with a bright future will bring them honor and sense of pride.

As for me, if Im left to make the choice, Ill not hesitate to choose a promising job. First of all, I appreciate the honor and challenge it brings to me. At the same time, if I work hard, it will offer me a lot of opportunities including high salary, good position, etc.

The traffic problem is one of the most serious problems in my hometown.

Recently, more and more people have private car, but the roads are so narrow

that we have to fight against the heavy traffic when we go out. Especially

during the rush hours, cars and buses are unable to move. To make things worse,

many people are killed in the traffic accidents. How miserable it is!

For the sake of our life and security, some measures must be taken to

change the present situation. In the first place, as there are a great many

cars, we should control the number of private cars and vehicles and use the

public transportation more often. Secondly, the government should widen the

roads and build more flyovers, so as to ease the traffic pressure and reduce the

traffic accidents. In addition, the undergrounds and light rails should be

constructed, so that we can have more choices when going out and do not have to

worry about the traffic jams in the future.

I believe the traffic problem could be solved if we devote our actions to

them.

With the rapid development of the society,people can live a better life in general.So because of the improvement of people’ s living standard,more and more people own cars.Traffic jam comes to life.While people in order to be punctual,they often ignore the cars crossing on the road.This behavior will easily bring traffic accidens.On the other hand,the car owner also want to be on time and then regardlss the traffic rules,which is also easy to have traffic accidents.Both the driver and people themseves’ behaviour leads to accidents.Those accidents may take people’s lives away.It’s so terrible.Therefore,for the sake of life,the driver and the pedestrian should obey the traffic regulation as we have only one life.

We Should Follow Traffic Rules

我们应该遵守交通规则

In order to keep the road orderly and people safe,everyone should follow traffic rules.

为了保持交通秩序和人们的安全,人人都应该遵守交通规则.

The walkers should look carefully both left and right when they are crossing the roads.When people are driving,they should wear a seat belt.Drivers are not allowed to drive after drinking.They must stop when the lights are red.Many people take buses.They should wait in line,and follow the rule "First get off,then get on".

行人在穿马路时,应该人真的看看左右.当人们开车时要系上安全带,酒后不能开车,见到红灯必须停下来.许多人乘公共汽车,他们应该排队,并遵守“先下后上”的原则.

If everyone follows the traffic rules,there will be fewer traffic accidents.

如果人人都能遵守交通规则,交通事故就会少多了.

The proposal is from Wang Yuqing, a deputy director of the Committee of Population, Resources and Environment.

He is being quoted as saying he favors a gradual opening of a two-child per family policy, and says he believes the current limitations will be lifted by the end of the five-year plan in 2015.

The current family planning policy was initiated in 1979 to control Chinas rapidly growing population.

But some negative side effects have emerged, including a rapidly aging population.

Peng Xizhe is the Director of the Institute of Population Research at Fudan University.

"The one-child policy has fulfilled the goal initially set. Negative effects will pile up if it continues."

The President of Renmin University, Ji Baocheng, claims the labor force population between the ages of 28 and 40 will be halved in 10 years.

As an example, in Shanghai, which has the highest urban population in China, the number of Shanghai natives -- as in those with a Hukou -- has actually been dropping for the last 17 years in a row, even though the citys population has been increasing.

A possible reason for Shanghai parents not choosing to have a second child could be the rising cost of everyday expenses, particularly the cost of education.

"I dont think Ill have a second child if the limit is removed. Im simply a wage-earner, and I find it difficult enough to raise one child, so I wont consider the second."

But at the same time, there are still people who think it would be nice to have two children.

"I will think about it. A lot of parents now are the only child in families, to have two kids means they can look after each other in the future, and of course, therell be financial burden."

One-Child Policy has been relaxed in certain ways over the years.

In cities such as Shanghai and Beijing, if a couple is both the product of the one-child policy, theyre allowed to have two kids.

Certian ethnic minority groups have been exempt from the rules entirely.

And families in rural areas whose first child is a girl are also allowed to have a second child without punishment.

It remains unclear as to how the proposed two-child policy will work, though its being suggested that several big cities will be selected to try it before its brought in around the country.

For CRI, Im Wang Jing.

In modern society, the problem of heavy traffic has aroused a wide concern.

Concerning with this problem, different people hold different opinions. As far

as I am concerned, to solve this problem, we need to begin with the following

steps.

First, limiting the number of private cars is a significant step to solve

the problem of heavy traffic. Private car occupies a larger space and it is

responsible for traffic jam to a large extent. Less private cars will accelerate

the flow of traffic. Second, it is also a good means to open up the special

roads for buses. By doing this, the phenomenon that the buses block the street

when passengers get on or get off the buses will not occur again. At the same

time, it will upgrade the efficiency of buses. Finally, reinforcing punish

toward the over-speed cars and drunk driving so as to reduce the rate of traffic

accident, and then decrease traffic jam.

To put it in a nutshell, only we put the above advice into practice

together can we solve the problem of heavy traffic.

1, to be a beauty, and the angel of love.

2, obey the traffic rules and regulations, and love the journey of life.

3, obey the traffic rules, deposit safety.

4, one of the car the whole family, one family safe and sound.

5, a second car accident, and pain in his life.

6, the heart is no shame, a bumpy road.

7, normally on heart lights, safe driving with life.

In 8, civilized traffic safety, keep life keep love.

Solid dotted line 9, zebra crossing, all is the life line.

10, life only have once, and peace accompany you a lifetime.

11, taking the first step in first step.

12, ning hundred paces around, dont rob step risks.

13, jaywalking, lost and helpless.

14, road for the pulse, the legal system of Chinese.

Three to 15, comity, chang an road.

严禁酒后驾车Drinking, No Driving

This year, the most stringent traffic rules are carried out, in order to reduce traffic accidents and improve citizens’ safety and property. One of them is strictly prohibited to drunk driving. I think it’s reasonable to this issue, no matter how strict the traffic rule is. Drinking reduce people’s sensibility that people can’t react immediately when the unexpected situation occurs, due to the anesthetic effects of alcohol. Besides, people will be tire easily after drinking, which is desperately dangerous to driving. In addition, people are usually excited after drinking. With stimulation of alcohol, people sometimes overestimate their own and try to do something dangerous despite of the advice of the people around them. In my opinion, it is necessary to ban on drinking while driving, for the sake of safety.

今年，为了减少交通事故，保证人民的人身和财产安全，我国开始执行史上最为严厉的新交规。其中一条就是严禁酒后驾车。对于酒驾这个问题，我认为不管多严格的规定都是合理的。由于酒精的作用，喝酒会使人的反应能力降低，无法快速应对意外事件。此外，喝酒后人很容易感到疲劳，这对开车来说是很危险的事情。再者，喝酒也会使人产生兴奋的感觉。在酒精的作用下，人有的时候会高估自己，因而会不顾旁人劝告而做出一些危险的举动。在我看来，为了所有人的安全着想，严禁酒后驾车是十分必要的。

王维嘉和丈夫几乎可以说是听着“控制人口数量，关爱地球母亲”的宣传长大的。

Wang Weijia and her husband grew up surrounded by posters proclaiming "Mother Earth is too tired to sustain more children."

他们将这个口号铭记在心，以至于今夏上海政府改变政策、鼓励年轻人生二胎时，他们迅速且坚定地表示：绝不!据悉，上海政府推出此举是受到了城市低出生率和人口老龄化问题双方面影响。

They learned the lesson so well that when Shanghai government officials, alarmed by their citys low birthrate and aging population, changed course this summer and began encouraging young couples to have more than one child, their reaction was instant and firm: No way.

“我们已经将全部时间和精力放在了独生子上，没精力再要第二个孩子了，”31岁的某公司人力资源主管王维嘉说。他们的儿子现在8个月大。

We have already given all our time and energy for just one child. We have none left for a second, said the 31-year-old Wang, a human resources administrator with an 8-month-old son.

一直以来，人们都认为计划生育政策会缓解就业市场的压力，同时保护自然资源。但是，它也导致了危险的低出生率和极大的老龄化人口数量。有专家表示，政府不大可能改变计划生育这一国策，因此，官员们正试图寻找其他方法来解决这一政策所产生的问题。

The family planning policy has been credited with easing job market pressures and preserving natural resources. Yet it has also led to a dangerously low birth-rate and an unusually large aging population. While experts say the government is unlikely to change the national policy, officials are looking into ways that they can address the policys downside.

中国的计划生育政策制定于20世纪70年代。该政策鼓励晚婚晚育，限制城市夫妇只要一个孩子，农村夫妇可以要两个孩子。新华社援引官方数据称，国家的出生率从1978年的1.8%降至2007年的1.2%，累计减少人口数量4亿人。

Chinas family planning policy was formulated in the early 1970s. It encourages late marriages and late childbearing, and it limits most urban couples to one child and most rural couples to two children. Official figures show that the countrys birth rate dropped from 1.8 percent in 1978 to around 1.2 percent in 2007, resulting in 400 million fewer births cumulatively, according to the Xinhua news agency.

与此同时，联合国人口署预计，截至2020年，60岁以上(包括60岁)的中国居民数量将占人口总量的16.%，到2050年这个比例将达到31.1%。

At the same time, the number of Chinese residents 60 and older is predicted to explode from 16.7 percent of the population in 2020 to 31.1 percent by 2050, according to the UN Population Division. That is far above the global average of about 20 percent.

在发达的沿海城市，例如上海，受教育人口数量相对较高，这种不平衡现象则更为显著。《中国日报》去年报道说，60岁以上(包括60岁)人口数量占上海注册居民总量的22%，而上海的出生率还不到每对夫妻一个孩子。

The imbalance is worse in wealthy coastal cities with highly educated populations, such as Shanghai. Last year, according to China Daily, people 60 and older accounted for almost 22 percent of Shanghais registered residents, while the birthrate was less than one child per couple.

人口学专家、国家人口计生委专家委员田雪原最近在《人民日报》发表署名文章，建议允许夫妇双方为独生子女者生育两个孩子。

Tian Xueyuan, a population specialist and member of the National Population and Family Planning Commission (NPFPC), addressed these concerns in the Peoples Daily recently. Tian proposed that couples who are the only children in their families should be allowed to have two children.

同时，一些地方政府已经开始采取措施改善所管辖地区的现状，国家人口计生委委员史春静表示，以上海为例，允许夫妻双方都是独生子女的家庭生二胎。

Meanwhile, some local governments are already taking steps to improve the situation in their regions, according to Shi Chunjing, an official of NPFPC. Shanghai, for instance, is giving certain urban residents (if both husband and wife are the only children) permission to have two children.

Many years ago, I saw a science fiction film, which described a future

world. The way people lived was very different. They could drive cars in the

sky. Everything in the future world was so convenient. Since then, I was always

curious about how the future world would become. The fling cars seemed so

ridiculous for now, but thinking about more than 100 years ago, people never

thought about flying in the sky, but now we could take planes and traveled

around the world. Everything was possible. Whats more, the development of

technology is so fast that the world changes so much every ten years. Nowadays,

people can pay the bill online. No matter where they go, a cell phone can solve

most problems. I believe that future transportation will be much efficient and

will surprise us all.
