Cars and Bicycles－小轿车与自行车
Cars and bicycles are similar in that they are both privately owned means of transport.
However, there are a lot of differences between them. A car costs a lot more to buy than a bicycle. In addition, it is far more expensive to run. For example, a car has to be insured,
and must be served regularly; further more, spare parts for a car cost a lot of money. A car uses petrol which is expensive, where as a bicycle uses only human energy.
On the other hand, as far as comfort is concerned, a car is better than a bicycle. In a car you are protected from the weather, and have comfortable seats and plenty of room to carry people and luggage.
A car is not only more comfortable than a bicycle, it is faster as well.
With respect to convenience, it is difficult to say which one is better. A bicycle is certainly easier to park!
So it is difficult to make a choice. In my opinion, if you can afford it, you''d better buy both a car and a bicycle. It will be very convenient.
