man is slowly polluting the whole world . 45 Pollution is still the most serious. It’s bad for 46 things in the world.

city, pollution by SO2, is now the most dangerous kind of air pollution. It’s also

caused by (由---引起) heavy traffic . People say it’s 48 to ride bikes. When

you are riding, there is no pollution. But even in developed countries, most people

don’t go to work by bike. It’s not because bikes are expensive or people are tired

if they ride to work. It’s because the number of cars on the roads becomes larger.

and worse. We should have special roads only for bikes and make it 50 difficult

and expensive for drivers to take their cars into the city that they will go back

to use their bikes .
