　　范文：

　　The set of pictures present a distinguishable contrast of the role of the automobile over time: a century ago, people celebrated the invention of such rapid equipment for transportation, 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 frequent traffic jams. Drivers in the second picture even fall asleep when trapped in this “disaster”.

　　Traffic jams have long been a problem that preoccupies many metropolitan cities such as New York, Tokyo, and Beijing. The harm and loss they cost are incalculable. 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. Most importantly, a severe traffic jam might results in the dysfunction of a whole city, which can affect residents’ life as well as businesses and industries.

　　In my opinion, it is an urgent task to reduce the frequency of traffic jams. The first step should be to change people’s lifestyles fundamentally so that the car is no longer part and parcel of their everyday life. Governments also need to apply attractive measures to draw citizens to adopt means of public transportation, for instance, to reduce prices and improve relevant facilities. In short, the cease of traffic jams will largely ameliorate life quality in cities.

　　譯文：

　　這一組圖展示了汽車(chē)在我們的社會(huì)中曾經(jīng)扮演過(guò)的兩種截然不同的角色：幾個(gè)世紀(jì)以前，人們?cè)趹c祝發(fā)明了一種如此快速的交通工具，有了它我們可以去任何我們想去的地方。但是現(xiàn)在，特別是在城市地區(qū)，汽車(chē)倒更是一種麻煩，因?yàn)閿?shù)目巨大的汽車(chē)導(dǎo)致了頻繁的堵車(chē)現(xiàn)象發(fā)生。第二副圖中的司機(jī)在這場(chǎng)“災(zāi)難”中都睡著了。

　　堵車(chē)在很多大城市中是一個(gè)困擾人們很久的問(wèn)題，比如在紐約、東京和北京。它造成的損失是無(wú)法估量的。首先，堵車(chē)使人們無(wú)聊地在車(chē)中等待，浪費(fèi)了大量寶貴時(shí)間。其次，堵車(chē)時(shí)汽車(chē)產(chǎn)生了更多的廢氣，進(jìn)一步加劇了空氣污染。最重要的是，嚴(yán)重的堵車(chē)事件會(huì)導(dǎo)致整個(gè)城市的功能癱瘓，影響居民的正常生活和工商業(yè)的正常進(jìn)行。

　　我認(rèn)為，努力降低堵車(chē)發(fā)生的頻率是我們的一項(xiàng)緊急任務(wù)。第一步措施就是要改變?nèi)藗兊纳罘绞?，并從根本上減弱汽車(chē)在我們的生活中的重要作用。政府還要采取有效的措施來(lái)促進(jìn)市民利用公共交通工具，如通過(guò)降低價(jià)格、改進(jìn)相關(guān)設(shè)施等?？偟膩?lái)說(shuō)，減少堵車(chē)可以大大改進(jìn)城市中的生活質(zhì)量。
