TASK 2
Posted: Wed Jan 20, 2021 5:53 pm
Hi!
Can you please evaluate this writing for task 2? I thank you a lot for your work!!
The first car appeared on British roads in 1888. By the year 2000 there
may be as many as 29 million vehicles on British roads.
Alternative forms of transport should be encouraged and
international laws introduced to control car ownership and use.
To what extent do you agree or disagree?
MY RESPONSE:
Since 1888, when the first car was built, these vehicles have walked a long way, as they have become more and more popular over the years: there are projections that state that there would be about 29 milion of cars in British streets by the year 2000.
The wide-spread use of this transport-mode has created lots of concerns; as a consequence, many people claim that there should be a more active policy aiming to incentive the utilization of different way of transports.
I agree that there are many cons in this "car-epidemic", but I think that there are also many delicate aspects to be considered to implement this kind of policies, such as the huge investment that a public transport requires to be a good substitute of cars.
Governments complain about car abuse because it is well-known that the fumes produced by cars are a main cause of the pollution in our cities; furthermore, many places have problems in managing traffic: lots of cars invade the roads, leading people to be stressed because they often end up stucked in the traffic jam.
Moreover, car accidents are one of the major cause of death in the globe.
However, it has to be saied that if cars had become so wide-spread there may be a reason. In fact, they are essential in our daily lives, because they are comfortable and much more flexible than the public transport offered in the vast majority of cities!
Furthermore, people prefer to make use of private cars also for hygiene reasons, since they feel them to be cleaner.
To conclude, I believe that it would be fair that governmental institutions find a way to incentive people to utilize more sustainable vehicles. But i think that it would not be optimal to substitute traditional cars with electric ones, since the issue of deaths and traffic would remain.
I am convinced that an effective public transport system would be the optimal solution, but for this huge investments are required, since such a system is currently lacking in most cities of the world.
