雅思写作交通拥堵话题常用的解题技巧

雅思培训小编要分享的是：雅思写作交通拥堵话题常用的解题技巧

应对这类题最通用的思路是：

1）认可题目中（可以是理论上 theoretically，表面上seemingly）除了best以外的逻辑（这也是通常所说的让步段）；在这道题中则是免费交通可以一定程度缓解交通拥堵问题；

2）（实际上in reality）题目的逻辑并不通，不能达到想要的效果

3）有其他的办法同样有效

以上三个思路，任取两个思路即可轻松完成本次考题的合理逻辑。

具体到这道题来说，我的观点是一边倒的，即"免费公交对缓解交通拥堵并无什么卵用"。首先，免费对于日常开车的人来说并没有太大的吸引力，因为开车的费用本身就比公交出行贵很多；其次，24小时免费有什么必要？缓解交通只需要在高峰期时减少私家车出行即可；最后，提出其他的一些可行的可以解决交通拥堵问题的手段。

In order to alleviate traffic congestion in big cities, some people propose that free public transportation for 24 hours a day, 7days a week should be provided. However, I believe that this is not an effective approach to ameliorate the situation, not to mention the best one.

Free public transportation is unlikely to attract more private car users to take a bus or subway to get around in the city. Since gasoline and parking charges are far higher than the cost of any form of public transportation, most people choose to drive a car not for saving money but for efficiency and/or comfort. So this 'free' policy provides little incentive for them to give up their usual traveling habits. Furthermore, offering free public transport outside rush hours is unnecessary. In late nights and early mornings, even if some residents do travel by car, the comparatively small number will not put severe pressure on traffic.

Therefore, while the non-stop free public transportation might be good news to individuals regularly commuting by public transports and those who are financially disadvantaged, it does little to making the traffic less congested and may therefore be a misuse of public money. If this money, however, could be used to improve the current public transport, for example, by adding more bus stops, constructing more metro lines and providing more frequent shifts, private car drivers will be more willing to leave their cars at home, because they feel that travelling by bus or subway can be equally convenient and comfortable.

Apart from improving public transportation, there are a range of other measures that can effectively reduce the number of vehicles on streets. For example, the parking charges in downtown areas and price of gasoline can be raised so that driving into city centers will be unaffordable to most people. To deal with the problem in the long run, measures should also be taken to encourage more companies and businesses to shift their affairs to rural regions. This can significantly lighten the traffic load in big cities by drawing a great number of commuters away from the congested urban areas.

In conclusion, while continuous free public transportation may seem attractive to some city residents, it alone contributes little to easing the traffic pressure.
