*Tape transcript

Big cities around the world have traffic problems. Mumbai in India is one of
them. Mumbai is one of the most congested cities in the world. Traffic jams
happen nearly every day, so drivers have to spend a lot of time on the road.
There are several reasons for traffic jams in this city. One reason is its increase
in population. With nearly 20 million, Mumbai has too many people on the
road. Another reason is that the roads in Mumbai are narrow, and many are
not in good condition. Also, many road users do not obey the traffic rules. As a
result, this problem is getting worse and worse.

Compare traffic problems in Mumbai to the traffic problems in

Write a paragraph of about 70 words about the traffic problems in your
town / city.

I live in Lao Cai city. It is a small and busy city. There are lots of vehicles
on the road all day. There are lots of cars, buses, taxis and trucks on high ways.
Most people travel by motorbike. Every family has a motorbike. The traffic jam
is often at about 7 a.m and 5 p.m because it's the time when people go to work
or school and come back home. There are sometimes accidents on the road.
Therefore, to reduce these problems, we need to obey traffic rules to reduce
accidents as much as possible.
