大自然对人的恩赐,无论贫富,一律平等。所以人们对于大自然全部一致并深深地依赖着。尤其在乡间,上千年来人们一直以不变的方式生活着:种植庄稼和葡萄,酿酒和饮酒,喂牛和挤奶,锄草和栽花;在周末去教堂祈祷和做礼拜,在节日到广场拉琴、跳舞和唱歌。往日的田园依旧是今日的温馨家园。这样,每个地方都有自己的传说,风俗也就衍传了下来。

Private Cars or Public Transportation
Many people appreciate the convenience of private cars. A private car gives more comfort and mobility and enables people to go whenever and wherever he likes, so he can enjoy his leisure to the full by making trips to the country or seaside at weekends, without the irritation caused by waiting for buses or trains.
But public transportation is also attractive. With someone else driving for us, we can feel relaxed on a bus or subway. And public transportation helps to lessen air pollution and traffic jams. It costs us less money and brings more jobs for others.
As far as I'm concerned, both public transportation and private cars, however, have their own disadvantages. In fact the bus system does not provide frequent stops and the location of the bus stops is sometimes not so convenient. And a private car also has many problems, such as too much harmful carbon monoxide emitted. It often puts the traffic in and around the city to much trouble. However, I hate the air pollution and traffic jams caused by private cars. So, given the chance, I would prefer public transportation.
