六、書面表達(dá)
As everybody knows that the traffic problems in our city become more and more serious. During the rush hours every morning and afternoon, the roads are very crowded. There are traffic jams almost on every main road. The accident rate becomes higher than before. I think that it is high time for the city government to take some measures to solve this problem.
First of all, we should repair the roads, for some of the roads are in bad condition and it is difficult for the drivers to go through. Secondly, we should build more overpasses so as to cut down traffic jams. Thirdly, the production of cars should be controlled, for there are too many cars moving on the roads every day. As long as we do something like this, the traffic problem will be solved or at least the accident rate will be lowered. I do hope our government will accept my suggestions.

六、書面表達(dá)
As everybody knows that the traffic problems in our city become more and more serious. During the rush hours every morning and afternoon, the roads are very crowded. There are traffic jams almost on every main road. The accident rate becomes higher than before. I think that it is high time for the city government to take some measures to solve this problem.
First of all, we should repair the roads, for some of the roads are in bad condition and it is difficult for the drivers to go through. Secondly, we should build more overpasses so as to cut down traffic jams. Thirdly, the production of cars should be controlled, for there are too many cars moving on the roads every day. As long as we do something like this, the traffic problem will be solved or at least the accident rate will be lowered. I do hope our government will accept my suggestions.
