With more and more cars on the road, the traffic jam will happen. How do we see it and how can we solve the problem?
We know that the traffic jam happens in many places, especially in big cities. What are reasons for the problem? On one hand, some people think that they should have a car when they have enough money, and then it's easy to go out and they can feel comfortable. On the other hand, a growing number of people hope to use their cars to show off (炫耀). What's more, years of research has shown that one of other reasons for the traffic jam is the driving habit. For example, many young people enjoy driving very fast, so they can feel excited. At last, most of them hardly care about the speed (速度) rules.
Many governments are working at how to make the traffic better. In my opinion, firstly, the governments should educate those people who have cars or plan to buy cars. The governments must make them know that the traffic jam is very serious, and set up a much more perfect traffic system (体系) to solve the traffic pressure.

Cyclists need to be more careful than other road users, as it’s much easier for them to get hurt. Remember that when you are on a cycle, you have no protection from dangers around you.
Don’t use your mobile phone while cycling. This is because you need to look out for the road and other traffic.
You should always wear a helmet as this can cut down on the risk of getting hurt on the head in an accident.
Do not change your direction suddenly.
Traffic laws apply (适用) to you as a cyclist, as well as other road users.
● Jump red lights, including lights at pedestrian (行人) crossings, unless there’s a sign showing that cyclists are allowed to do this.
●

This month, many Chinese cities are doing something special. It’s called “give way at the zebra crossing”.
These cities ask drivers to stop when people walk across zebra road crossings. If they don’t, they’ll have to pay a fine of 100 to 500 yuan and they’ll also lose three points.
Why is this rule popular now? Because many cities are working hard to carry it out (执行). There are more cameras at zebra crossings now. Some workers can explain the rule to drivers.
Zebra crossings can help keep people safe. However, 3, 898 people lost their lives in 14,000 zebra crossing accidents from 2015 to 2017. Most of the accidents happened because drivers wouldn’t give way to people on foot.
With this rule, people will be safer when crossing the street. But at the same time, it’s polite (有礼貌的) to cross the road quickly.

We produce a lot of rubbish every day. Where does all this rubbish go? Scientists have made a pyramid (金字塔) of the different ways of dealing with rubbish. The worst ways are at the bottom and the best ways are at the top.
The bottom of the pyramid is waste disposal (丢弃). This means simply putting rubbish in places like open waste-yards. Waste-yards produce awful smells. They are harmful to the environment and our health.
A landfill (垃圾填埋场) is a huge hollow that can hold rubbish. In some landfills, waste is treated to make it less harmful before it is buried. Once a landfill is full, it is safely covered with earth. A park or playground can then be built on top of it.
Another way to deal with rubbish is to burn it. This produces energy but can give out harmful smells into the air. In some places, people clean the harm smells before putting them into the air.
In the middle of the pyramid is recycling. This means using rubbish to make new products. Used glass bottles, for example, can be changed to make new glass products. Waste paper can be broken up and mixed with water to make new paper.
Reusing is another good way to deal with rubbish. This means using “waste” in another way. Buying and selling second-hand things online is a good example.
Waste prevention is at the top of the pyramid. It means not producing rubbish in the first place. For example, you can say no to single-use plastic cups. Choose glass instead!

【推荐3】French people are the third-largest ethnic group (少数族裔) in Canada, with Chinese beings second and British being the majority (大多数). In the province of Quebec (魁北克省), where most French Canadians live, people mainly speak and write in French. Outside of Quebec, both English and French are used. All writing on Canadian products must be written in English and French. How did this come to be?
In the book The White and the Gold by Canadian author Thomas B Costain, I got my answer. The author explains the development of Canada in an interesting way with facts and real people’s stories. As he describes, the French and the English both tried different ways to colonize (殖民于) Canada. The French encouraged their people to visit the new world with the promise of becoming rich. Many expected to return to France and enjoy an easy life with their new money. They just wanted to exchange goods with the natives (当地人) and didn’t care about building the land into a big country.
The English way was very different. They would set up large cities and produce their own expensive goods. Instead of trading with the natives, the British just brought so many people to the colonies (殖民地) that they could support themselves. When the two countries went to war, the British had over 40,000 soldiers, while the French only had 10,000.
On Canada’s way to national independence (独立), the anger of the French Canadians continued to scare the British. Slowly, the treatment of French Canadians got better. Quebec was made to support French Canadian people: Laws were made to protect French culture and language inside Quebec, and French became an official (官方的) language of Canada. Government workers across Canada are required to speak both English and French. The French language is taught in every school, making sure that every Canadians has at least a basic understanding of French.
