政府是否该把钱花在铁路建设上.Whether the government should spend money on railway construction

As China continues along the road of economic development, new demands are being put on the transportation infrastructure of the country.
随着我国经济的不断发展，新的交通基础设施建设的要求也在不断的进行着。
This is particularly evident in the cities, where daily traffic jams are unavoidable facts of life.
这在城市尤其明显，在日常交通拥堵是不可避免的生活事实。
Faced with a mounting traffic crisis, I believe the government should focus on improving public transportation instead of improving roads and highways.
面对日益增加的交通危机，我认为政府应该把重点放在改善公共交通，而不是改善公路和公路上。
Public transportation is cheaper, better for the environment, and a better long-term solution for meeting the transportation demands of the future.
公共交通更便宜，环境更好，更长远的解决方案，以满足未来的运输需求。
The traffic crisis in large cities is mainly due to the increase in the number of private cars on the road.
大城市的交通危机主要是由于私家车数量的增加而引起的。
If 30 people each drive their own private cars to work in the morning, polluting emissions from these 30 cars pollute the air.
如果30个人每天驾驶自己的私家车去上班，这30辆汽车的污染排放污染了空气。
Having 30 extra cars on the road not only means more traffic, it also means that all cars on the road will run their engines longer to produce more pollution while they idle in traffic jams.
公路上有30辆车不仅意味着更多的车辆，这也意味着路上的所有汽车都会在交通拥堵的时候用更长的时间来生产更多的污染。
On the contrary, if those same 30 people take the bus to work, there would be less traffic, and even less pollution.
相反，如果那些相同的30个人乘公共汽车去上班，会有更少的交通，甚至更少的污染。
More bus and subway lines would also save much space now wasted on parking lots, which makes sense from both environmental and city-planning perspectives.
更多的公交车和地铁线路也将节省大量的空间，现在浪费在停车场上，这是从环境和城市规划的角度进行的。
Investment in public transportation also makes sense for the customer.
对公共交通的投资也对客户有意义。
The most expensive public transportation in the city costs about 5 yuan.
市内最贵的公共交通费用约为5元。
Two trips across the city every day for a whole year would still be less than a fifth of the cost of a new car, not to mention the inevitable expenditure of maintaining a good performance of the car.
一个城市的每一天，一个新的汽车的成本，而不是一个新的汽车的成本，而不是一个新的汽车的成本，而不是一个新的汽车，而不是一个不可提及的五分之一个城市的旅行，以保持良好的性能的汽车。
Taking into account the considerable upkeep expenses of a car, gas, insurance, and repairs, owning a car is much less economic and convenient than is taking the bus or the subway.
考虑到一辆车，大保养费用气，保险，维修，拥有一辆车更经济方便，比坐公车或地铁。
While some people would argue that investing money on highways is imperative for holistic benefits of our country, I personally believe the need for solving current traffic disasters that are prevalent in most such major cities as Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou is more urgent.
虽然有些人会认为，投资在公路势在必行我国的整体利益，我个人认为的需要解决当前交通灾害普遍存在在大多数主要城市如北京，上海，广州是更为迫切。
The problem has already become the biggest headache of local governments and their residents, and would cost even more if not handled promptly.
这个问题已经成为地方政府和居民最大的头痛，如果不及时处理，将会花费更多的费用。
