In common with many countries, Britain has serious environmental problems. In 1952, more than 4,000 people died in London because of the smog (烟雾). The government introduced new laws to stop smog from coal fires and factories and the situation improved a lot. Today, London is much cleaner but there is a new problem: smog from cars. In December 1991, there was very little wind in London and pollution increased a lot. As a result, about 160 people died from pollution in just four days.
Part of the problem is the new “out of town” shopping centers. In the past, people often walked to shops near their home or went by bus. Many people drive to the new shopping centers now. As a result, the small shops have disappeared and more people have to travel to do their shopping.
Critics (批评家) say that Britain needs better and cheaper public transport (交通). Transport in Britain is very expensive. An early morning train trip from Glasgow to London (about 600km) can cost about ￡100, for example. A short 15-minute bus trip can cost over ￡1.00.
Many people are trying to reduce（减少）the use of cars in Britain. Some cities now have special bicycle paths (小道) and many people go to work by bike. Some people also travel to work together in one car to reduce the pollution and cost.

During the Winter Olympics in Sochi(索契), 25,000 volunteers from Russia and other countries provided services for athletes and guests. The student Oksana Verkholyak helped translate Russian into English and Korean at the Games. She told us about their usual day.
“We get up at 7:30 in the morning. Then we have breakfast. Usually we have porridge for breakfast. There is always tea, coffee, bread and pies. After breakfast, we head for a bus stop and get on a bus which runs to the media center. It takes us 30 minutes to get there,” she said.
When volunteers arrived there, they went through the security (安全) check point. They couldn’t bring water or food with them. “Security guards check our bags. We are not allowed to have things made of metals. They check phones, video cameras, electric equipment and computers,” Oksana added.
In the evening volunteers got back to the apartment buildings. All of them were like one big family. They lived together and got some rest together—after dinner they went to the beach to watch the sunset.
