市场中大的竞争优势的情况下，生活水平的大幅度提高总是来自更好的食谱，而不是更多的 烹饪。也许会有人提出这并不完全正确。有人也许会举例指出，从早期的工业革命到现代化 时代这么长的时期内，在工业领域中，许多生产效率的进步和物质财富的增长并不仅仅来源 煜创造性的发明，如蒸气机，还来源于讲求量的商业方法的广泛应用，比如大规模的劳动力 划分，资本集中，纵向联合和经济规模。但是这些方法本身就是创造性的发展。 Section V Writing (20 points) In this section, you are asked to write an essay based on the following table. Describe the table and state your opinion. You should write at least 150 words on the ANSWER SHEET Accidents in a Chinese City (2005) Main accident causes Number of accidents in 2005 Percentage rise (+) or fall (-) Drivers training left without due care 608 +10% Drivers turning too close to other vehicles 411 +9% pedestrians crossing roads carelessly 401 +12% Drivers driving under the influence of alcohol 281 +15% Drivers failing to give a signal 264 -5% 范文
As can be seen from the above table, comparing to the past, in 2005, the traffic accidents in Chinese city were still ignored by both drivers and pedestrians. Records show that some badly changes had taken place in the following aspects. In the year of 2005, accidents in a Chinese city caused by drivers training left without due care grew 10%, which is 608 in total. And drivers turning too close to other vehicles cause the number of accidents to be 411, which is 9% added comparing to the past. Although there was only 281 accidents related with drivers driving under the influence of alcohol, it still increased 15% which was the greatest change of all. Besides the drivers, the table also tells us those pedestrians crossing roads carelessly can't be ignored, with which the number of accidents is 401 associated. It is no difficult job for us to come up with some possible factors that are responsible for the changes . For one thing, the government is still not aware of the necessary of strict training for drivers. It is government officers' failing in their duty that make the drivers training left without due care. For another, divers do not have true understanding in importance of save. Many drivers even drive under the influence of alcohol; some drivers turn too close to another vehicles or overtake another vehicles in front in order to catch pleasant sensation for a moment. Besides, an important factor worth our concern is that our pedestrians always cross road crossly. some citizens even violate traffic rules in order for convenient.
Considering the current issue and worsening situation, we should call for some immediate actions. In other words, our government of various levels must make relevant plans or rules to guarantee every drivers having strict training. Besides, the general public should also be made aware that any prompt solution is of benefit to all. Therefore, it's the duty of ordinary people to actively participate in the action. As a driver, we should drive his car carefully, especially when the weather is bad; as a pedestrian, we should not cross a road when the traffic lights do not permit them to.
