Bikes or Cars Americans like to go out by car.Although more and more Chinese own cars,most Chinese still like to ride bicycles, This is determined by a lot of factors. As we all know, the bike advances slowly by manpower, but it can be placed wherever it is convenient However, as for the car, although it can run fast by engine, it must be parked at parking places. Most Americans live in the suburb which is far from urban areas and their working places.So they need cars to go shopping and go to work.And they also like traveling far.Thus a car brings them great convenience.On the contrary, most Chinese live near their working areas and markets. They don\'t need a car to go to work or go shopping.I would like to ride a bike, because it costs little and it is easy to use and won\'t cause pollution.
自行车还是汽车
美国人喜欢乘汽车外出。尽管越采越多的中国人拥有了汽车，但大部分中国人仍 喜欢骑自行车，这是由很多因素决定的。
众所周知，自行车靠人力，行进慢，但可以在方便的地方停放。然而对于汽车来 说，虽然它依靠发动机行进很快，但它必须停在停车场。
多数美国人生活在郊区，远离市区及工作地点，所以他们需要汽车来购物、上班，并且他们也喜欢驾车远行。因此汽车给他们提供很大方便。相反，多数中国人居 住在工作地点和市场附近，他们不需要开车去上班或购物。
我喜欢骑自行车外出，因为它花费少而且容易使用。最重要的是自行车不会引起 污染。

然而，吸烟对人的健康是有害的，它会引起肺癌，在刚刚过去的几年中；许 多人因此而丧命，还可能引发其他的疾病。总之，如果你吸烟的话，你就很可能 失去拥有健康的机会，更进一步说，科学研究显示，吸烟不仅危害吸烟者本人， 而且对公共健康来说，也是一个凶兆，尤其是对妇女和孩子。因此，许多国家都 制定了不准在公共场合吸烟的法规，例如：电影院，车站，医院等地。 戒烟吧，如果你还未染上，请不要开始；戒烟吧，为了你的健康，为了你的 家庭的健康，为了整个世界的健康。

看电视是一件好事情吗
电视自从发明后，就大大改变了人们的生活。现在的电视已成为人们生活中 重妻的一部分。
人们通常在辛勤工作后，通过看电视来享受生活。他们足不出户就可欣赏一些精彩的表演、连续剧和体育比赛，也不必花很多钱买票。电视节目使人们的生 活变得更有趣。
人们从电视中学到很多东西。学生能通过看教育节目来学习，人们能看新闻、天气预报、有关科学和电脑的节目。世界各地的人们通过看电视互相学习，相互 了解。
但并不是所有的节目都足够好。如今的电视节目中有太多关于色情和犯罪的 片段。有些青年变坏就是因为受了电视上坏人的引诱。电视看得太多还会耽误时 间，影响学习和生活，对视力也不好。
世界各地的人们都在看电视。看电视是一件好事情，还是一件坏事情呢?我认 为这取决于自己。只要大家有选择，有节制，看电视就是一件好事情。
