Some people hold the opinion that riding a bike is superior to driving
a car in many ways. Others, however, contradict the method of riding a bike.
Personally, I would prefer riding a bike because I think it has more advan-
tages.
There are numerous reasons why riding a bike is preferable, and I would
in here explain a few of the most important ones. The main reason is that the
roads in today's cities are relatively crowded as a result of the mushrooming
of the automobiles, so, riding a bike can be nore quick than drive a car if
you do not want to be late for work. it can be given a concrete example. In a
morning of two years ago, it's already 8 o'clock, and at 8:30, my boss wanted
to see me in the office. Then, I drove my car out of the garge, drove it onto
the road. It's the busiest time of the day. There's a traffic jam. At last, I
was late, late again. The result was that I was fired. What if I rode a bike?
I thought later.
Another reason why I advocate the attitude of riding a bike is that if
all of us drive a car. Our lovely earth would suffer. Takd the case of a thing
that warmhouse effect has been already proved by the scientists. And the
noxious gases emitted by cars are the direct cause of this effect.
One very strong argument for riding a bike is that the victims caused by
traffic accidents that are mainly caused by cars. The victims can be scien-
tists who could contribute his later life to the whole mankind, can be artists
who would make true arks in the future. This demonstrates the undeniable fact
that cars are the Devil of modern society and if all of us ride bikes, these
accidents can be obbiated.
Of course, choosing riding a car alse has advantages to some extent, for
example, in a very cold day, it is warmer to drive a car than ride a bike.
But if all these factors are contemplated, the advantages of riding a
bike carry more weight that those of driving a car. From what has been dis-
cussed above, we may finally draw the conclusion that if we all riding a bike,
the earth is going to be a better place fo us.

一些人认为在许多方面骑车比开骑车更好。然而另一方面,骑车也是一种矛盾的方
式。我个人更倾向于骑自行车,因为我认为有很多好处。
有很多理由说明骑自行车更好,在这里,我只列举一些主要的。主要的原因是当今
城市太拥挤了,结果导致汽车的迅速增加,这样,如果你不想吃到的话,骑车比开车快。
举一个具体的例子。两年前的一个早晨,已经八点了,八点半,我去办公室要见老板。
这样,我把车开出了车库,开上了公路。这个时间是一天当中最忙的时间,道上交通阻
塞,最后,我迟到了,有迟到了。结果,我被解雇了。后来我想,为什么我没有骑自行
车?但晚了。
另外一个我赞同骑自行车的原因是如果我们所有人都开车的话,我们可爱的地球将
受损害。例如温室效应已经被科学家所证明,而汽车放出的有毒气体直接导致了这种效
应。
骑自行车最有力的原因是大部分的交通事故都是由汽车导致的。这些遇难者可能是
后半生对整个人类有贡献的科学家,可能是在未来创作出真正艺术的艺术家。不可否认
的事实说明了汽车是现代社会的魔鬼,如果我们大家都骑自行车的话,那些事故就避免。
当然,开汽车在一定范围上有先进的地方,例如,再很冷的天气里,开车比骑自行
车更暖和。
除了上面提到的事实以外,骑车的好处比开汽车更多。从上面的讨论可以看出,我
们可以得出这样的结论:如果我们都骑车的话,我们的地球会变成对我们来说更好的地
方。

I am dormouse. 我是睡鼠
昨夜风兼雨,帘帏飒飒秋声。烛残漏断频倚枕。起坐不能平。
世事漫随流水,算来一梦浮生。醉乡路稳宜频到,此外不堪行。
