When John and Marry first arrived in China from America, they were not used to the traffic. They found streets were so busy, the traffic was heavy and really noisy. That was not really a problem to them in New York where the traffic is also noisy and heavy. The main problem facing John and Mary was the different traffic rules in China. They were used to crossing the street at the crossing while the traffic stopped for the pedestrians. Now, they had to learn how to dodge the traffic not only when they crossed the road but sometimes even on the sidewalks.

Every day as I leave my hotel room for work I feel like I am holding my life in my hands. In the UK, there’re generally 2 lanes for traffic, one in either direction. But here in Beijing, there seem to be 2 or 3 lanes each way on most of the roads. Drivers swarm in or out of the lanes and make it difficult to me to feel safe when I cross the road. Not only this, but in major cities in the UK, it is illegal in many residential areas for cars to drive at more than 30 miles per hour. In Beijing, it seems to be a lot faster. Cars must also stop at zebra crossings if a pedestrian is waiting. So I stand at the road waiting for cars to stop for me only to find that not one single driver does this. My feeling of safety is not increased even when I am in a car. Taxi drivers here seem more willing to risk moving into another lane full of speeding traffic if they see even the smallest gap.

每天當(dāng)我離開(kāi)酒店的房間出去工作，我感覺(jué)我的生命就握在自己手上。英國(guó)通常有兩條交通車道，每個(gè)方向一條。但是北京這里，很多道路都有2或3條車道。司機(jī)涌進(jìn)車道涌出車道，使我在過(guò)馬路時(shí)很難覺(jué)得安全。不僅僅是這樣，而且在英國(guó)很多主要城市，在很多居民區(qū)開(kāi)車時(shí)速超過(guò)30英里/小時(shí)是違法的。在北京，似乎快很多。如果有行人在等待，汽車必須在斑馬線那里停下來(lái)。所以我在路上站在等車為我停下來(lái)，只是為了知道沒(méi)有一個(gè)司機(jī)會(huì)這樣做。即使在車?yán)?，我的安全感也不?huì)增加。如果看到有一個(gè)更小的空隙，這里的計(jì)程車司機(jī)似乎更樂(lè)意開(kāi)進(jìn)擠滿超速行駛的車輛的車道。
