2013年考研英语（一）考前短文写作模拟：交通堵塞问题
The picture presents a real traffic scene in which endless columns of vehicles have jammed the road, making movement impossible. Much valuable time is wasted and many important businesses are delayed in the helpless waiting for progress. It's no exaggeration to say that the inconvenience and losses caused by traffic jams are inestimable.
Traffic problem is an inescapable outcome of social and economical development, and therefore is common to most capital cities all over the world. The accelerated urbanization, the rapid increase of private cars, and the lag of road construction are responsible for traffic congestion.
As the traffic problem involves many factors, there is no single measure that can solve it once for all. For the present, realistic solutions may include: first and for most, we should give priority to improving and developing mass-transit system, both ground and underground; Secondly, the authority should set up proper limits to private vehicles; Thirdly, the related regulations should be made to ensure perfect traffic management; Last but not the least is to advocate bicycling or walking between home and office. I believe by these effective measures, the traffic problem will be solved sooner or later.
