　　日常英文對(duì)話：Traffic jam

　　Dialogue one:

　　A: You are finally here. What took so long?

　　B: I got stuck in traffic again. There was a terrible traffic jam near the Carrefour section.

　　A: It’s always rather congested down there during the rush hour.

　　B: Maybe you should try to get a different route to get home.

　　A: I don’t think it can be avoided, to be honest.

　　B: Perhaps it would be better if you start taking public transport to work.

　　A: I think it is something I’ll have to consider. The public transportation system is pretty good.

　　B: It would be better for the environment too.

　　A: I know. I feel bad about how much my car is adding to the pollution problem in the city.

　　B: Taking the subway would be a lot less stressful than driving as well.

　　A: The only problem is that I’m going to really miss having the freedom that you have with the car.

　　B: Well, when it’s nicer outside, you can start biking to work. That will give you just as much freedom as your car usually provides.

　　A: that’s true, I could certain use the exercise.

　　B: So, are you going to quit driving to work then?

　　A: Yes, it’s not good for me, and also for the environment.

　　Dialogue two:

　　A: Is it just me, or the traffic is getting worse and worse every day?

　　B: If you think it is getting worse, then you’re probably right.

　　A: You feel that there are more cars on the road every single day.

　　B: Congestion is typical in most big cities. But to be honest the traffic situation in this city now is becoming ridiculous.

　　A: I know. It took me 30 minutes just to get down our main street this morning. Traffic just didn’t move.

　　B: The congestion is so bad during rush hour that even taking a bus proved to be a dreaded deal now.

　　A: It’s ridiculous, you get to places faster by bike than by car now.

　　B: I think part of the problem is that more and more people in the city can now afford to buy a car.

　　A: Do you think the government will do anything to solve the problem?

　　B: They already ban cars they feel are too old.

　　A: That’s a good start. But they are going to have to do a lot more than that if they want people to be able to get around the city reasonable quickly.

　　B: Once the new subways are built, that’s reducing the congestion a bit.

　　A: What if it only makes it easier for more people to travel longer distances to work.

　　B: They ban the motorcycle within the second ring road. Maybe they could also ban vehicles.

　　A: Maybe, I don’t know what the solution is. But they’d better think of something soon.

　　walk of life.

　　日常英文對(duì)話： Drug Abuse

　　DIALOGUE1

　　M: Are you alright?

　　B: Not really.

　　illegally growing cannabis plants.

　　M: You know; there are quite a few people who don't think that

　　marijuana is a big deal. B: I know.

　　That's the problem. Though marijuana may not be so serious,

　　I think it often leads to other drugs.

　　M: So, you think it's a gateway drug?

　　B: Yes, I had a few friends in university who smoked a lot of weed,

　　but got bored with it so moved on to harder drugs like ecstasy,

　　cocaine, and morphine.

　　M: Did you ever experiment with drugs?

　　B: I used to smoke joints for fun in high school,

　　but then I started to depend on it to help me through each day.

　　M: So what happened?

　　B: My mom found a joint in my bedroom and

　　made me go to drug re-hab.

　　M: So did that make you quit?

　　B: No. I was upset with my mom for making me go.

　　B: I met my girlfriend and she told me that she'd only go out

　　with me if I quit.

　　M: Anything for love!

　　Drugs were an escape for him.

　　than two decades, he had finally cleaned up.
