The pollution problem in Beijing is becoming increasingly more troublesome. There are many reasons for this. The number one reason is the fact that there are so many cars. It is said that 1,100 new cars are taking to the streets of Beijing every day since January 1, 2007. That is a very big number. At that rate（进度）, there will be millions of cars by 2008, in which, the Olympic Games will be a great event to the world.

       While it is understandable for people to buy a car when they have enough money, they must also think of the result on the environment. And, to make the traffic and pollution problem worse, people do not follow traffic rules. That makes driving here in Beijing, and being a person walking on the street very difficult.

       What will be done to solve these problems?

Sincerely,

John Smith
