英语四级范文宝典：阐述城市公共交通的重要性
【题目】Should governments spend more money on improving roads and highways， or should governments spend more money on improving public transportation （buses， trains， subways）？ Why？ Use specific reasons and details to develop your essay.
【范文】
Good transportation is very important to the success of both individuals and a city. Without efficient means of transportation， people will waste a great deal of time going to and from work. This will make them tired and less productive in their jobs. People may rely on either private or public transportation to get them to and from work. If a choice has to be made between spending money on improving the roads for private vehicles or improving public transportation， I would choose the latter for the following reasons.
First of all， better public transportation systems， including buses， trains and subways， will encourage more people to use them rather than drive their own cars. This will reduce the total amount of traffic on the roads and make travel quicker for everyone. Second， using public transportation saves energy.
