Discussing and writingCan Jiyuan become a city of bicycles?Why? or Why not?road conditions and facilities for cycling in Jiyuan

bicycle advantages

According to our discussion, we think … The reasons are as follows

Firstly… Secondly… Thirdly….

According to our discussion,we think Jiyuan can become a “city of bicycles”.The reasons are as follows. Firstly,as we all know, most streets are flat and convenient for bikes in Jiyuan.what’smore,bikes need much less parking space than cars, and on narrow roads, it is more convenient for us to ride bikes than to drive cars. What’s the most important is that there are too many free public bikes in our city. Secondly ,what impresses us is the low price of a bike, so most of them can afford one. Compared to a car, a bike can be fixed more easily without costing much money . Last but not the least ,riding bicycles can be more environment-friendly without causing any pollution, it can save energy and keep fit.So Jiyuan can become a “city of bicycles” one day.

Thank you!
