分析 本文属于提纲式要点作文，是学生比较熟悉的题材，体现了英语学习应该注重实用性，生活型的原则．行文人称时态运用恰当准确，各个要点间逻辑连贯，行文通畅．提纲类作文不是简单的逐条翻译，而是将所给的几个要点合理地组成比较通顺的语句，因此要仔细组织语言，合理安排结构．语言方面要特别注重简洁明了，开头要开门见山．运用高级词汇：
in spite of  尽管
contribute to 引起；有助于
what's worse 更糟糕的是…
obey regulations 遵守规则
be aware of 明白；知晓

解答 In spite of the fast development of transportation in the major cities of China，more and more traffic problems are arising．A serious one is heavy traffic．Very often，we see cars in front of us parked on both sides of the street，driving down the street，or stuck in traffic with drivers waiting impatiently．So what on earth causes this problem．（描述交通问题）    In the first place，vast population contributes to heavy traffic and growing numbers of private cars add to the pressure on the severe traffic conditions．（高分句式一）What's worse，some people are unaware of the importance of obeying traffic regulations，so it's not uncommon to see accidents blocking traffic．（分析原因）
    Personally，I think that rather than promote private cars，it's better to improve the public transportation system with scientific road design and proper management．（高分句式二）More importantly，never can traffic jams be eased without self-disciplined citizens．（相应建议）

点评 英语写作是一项主观性较强的测试题．它不仅考查学生的写作基础而且还考查学生在写作过程中综合运用语言的能力．在撰写时要注意主谓语一致，时态呼应，用词贴切等．要提高英语写作水平，需要两方面的训练：一是语言基础方面的训练，要有扎实 的造句、翻译等基本功，即用词法、句法等知识造出正确无误的句子；二是写作知识和能力 方面的训练以掌握写作方面的基本方法和技巧．
