摘要： Many of people want to own a car without considering . A. this is a dream B. money C. the problems related to the mass ownership of private autos D. comfort
At the onset of a new year, I always ask my Chinese friends what their expectations to realize that, even than last year, they all dream of owning a car．Most of them hope that sooner or later every Chinese family can acquire a car．
I don’t by any means contest the rights of Chinese people to enjoy the same housing conditions, household appliances and other goods that are available in developed countries．But it seems obvious that many of them have related to the mass ownership of private autos．
I know that it’s not easy to sacrifice our personal comfort and open our minds to consider what is good for an entire society, rather than just for ourselves．But I for one would not contribute to the further pollution of Beijing by owning a car．And if I were to return to Montreal, I would not buy a car there either．
In today’s China owning a car is seen as a symbol of wealth and success．I wish Chinese people would acquire the maturity to reject that idea, and turn their efforts towards developing a good public transportation system．The country needs more trains(light urban commuter lines as well as long-distance trains), more buses and more subways．That is the only way to get out of the traffic jam．
