Traffic Jams
Philip: OMG. The traffic is crawling.
Albert: I think there's an accident ahead. We got stuck .
Philip: Unfortunately, it's traffic jam . Look, the traffic police man is coming.
Albert: I really hate crossroads .
Philip: Why? Long red light, huh?
Albert: Not just that. There're so many vehicles and pedestrians . I often get stuck when crossing crossroads, especially in rush hour .
Philip: So we need to obey the traffic rules , otherwise you may have an accident.
Albert: I know. But I still think we should do something to improve it.
Philip: Reducing private cars and using pubic transportation .
Albert: Yeah, our government should build more underpasses .
Philip: I agree with you. Oh, we're now running late.
Albert: I know. Let me take a look at the map. Why don't you take a different route ?
Philip: Sure. Let's do that even though we may have to take a longer way.
交通堵塞
菲利普： 天哪，交通简直像是再爬。
艾伯特： 估计前面出了交通事故了。我们被困了。
菲利普： 太倒霉了，交通堵住了。看，交警来了。
艾伯特： 我真的很讨厌十字路口。
菲利普： 为什么？因为要等很长的灯？
艾伯特： 不完全是。十字路口总是有很多的人和车。我过路口时常常被堵住，特别是高峰期。
菲利普： 这就更得遵守交规了，否则就会出事故了。
艾伯特： 知道，我一直在想我们应该怎么能改进路况呢？
菲利普： 减少私家车上路多倡导公共交通。
艾伯特： 是呀，政府多建些地下通道。
菲利普： 同感。我们要晚了。
艾伯特： 我查看一下地图，为什么不换条路呢？
菲利普： 好吧，就算要多走点儿路我们也那么走吧。
