2013四级作文:中国是否应鼓励购买私家车

Should private cars be encouraged in China? This is a controversial question. There are many reasons to encourage people to own cars. First, a car allows a person to move around freely. Second, a car is a comfortable travelling vehicle, especially in the winter or in bad weather. Third, a female driver is usually safe in a car at night. However, there are also many arguments against it. First, with the increase of private cars, the roads are becoming more and more crowded and it is tiring to drive in heavy traffic. Second, the poisonous gas greatly pollutes the atmosphere and does harm to people's health. Third, the number of traffic accidents is increasing remarkably in recent years. In my opinion, we must weigh every factor carefully before making decisions about buying private cars. Though the number of private cars keeps on increasing, popularization of luxurious things like cars will have to wait. After all, I don't think it is wise to encourage private cars in China.
