Writing- 3. An example
I live in a small town. In the past few years,
great changes have taken place. With the
development of economy and living conditions,
more and more private cars appeared. The
roads are full of motorbikes, electrical
bicycles and cars, which cause traffic jam
in turn, especially in rush hour.
I think the government should take effective
steps to solve the problems.
On one hand, the roads should be widened. On the other hand, I suggest the government should request people to go to work at different times. I hope people will live in this town more happily.
