　　Goingto Work on Bicycle Rather than by Bus

　　In my opinion， bicycles， as a means of transportation， have many advantages over buses.

　　One reason is the traffic jam. Crowded people and numerous vehicles often hold up the traffic. You can hardly afford the delay.

　　Another reason is the difficulty in getting on a bus during rush hours. There are so many people waiting at the bus stop. You will be quite lucky if you can push your way into the bus.

　　What happens in the bus is the third reason. Pressed by the crowded passengers， you feel very uncomfortable. A passenger standing next to you may shove his elbow in you ribs or step on your toes. It is certainly a relief when you finally get off the bus.

　　By comparison， riding on bicycle can free you from all these troubles. It is seldom stopped by the traffic jam， thus making you active at your workplace in time. Also， it limbers up your muscles and animates your mind.

　　「評語」

　　本文一開始就開門見山地指明騎自行車上班更有利。接著文章分別闡明了幾個原因：第一，交通阻塞，乘車容易誤事；第二，乘車睏難；第三，上車後擁擠不堪；第四，騎自行車上班的好処。寫這類文章最忌柺彎抹角，顧左右而言他。本文的一大優點就是單刀直入，論據清楚，語言平易懂。

　　用細節來講道理，理直氣壯，說服力更強。
