Guiyang Traffic Nothing is perfect in this world, and everybody knows that. People try to be perfect, and people like to be perfect, but there are too many problems that still need to solve because they made people always feel angry, and feel not perfect even life is much better than before.

Guiyang is a small city but has large population; the approximate population is about 3 million people. Nowadays, Chinese become richer and richer, so people like to have a car for themselves, so the problem appeared (1). It is usual for a people to buy a car because it is become more and more necessary. However, Mr. Long belive this types of situation casus too many problems, especially the traffic.

    The Chinatown BIA is a low density residential area where the community is built with a variety of small Asian style businesses that attracts tourists and a lot of people to shop and visit. In order to make the community accessible for people, a good transportation system is essential. I had the opportunity to visit Chinatown on Tuesday, October 20th, 2015, at approximately 8:30am, particular to monitor the traffic condition on the major intersection of Dundas and Spadina Avenue because Dundas Street West is always known as the busiest street. During this time, the area was trafficked, the most common forms of transportation are cars and street cars since it is the working hours for many workers and students.

    Everyone has his or her own masks to wear. Some people wear their masks by choice, other times it is just horrible fate that people end up with what they have. NOTHING is perfect. But, at the same time, perfection lies in the imperfect world. I know that sounds like a contradictory thing to say... but perfection is something to stumble upon. Our own hands cannot create it; it's something that the fates can only control. Embrace chaos before it bites you in the ass. That's my thought for the…

    “If work and leisure are soon to be subordinated to this one utopian principle- absolute busyness- then utopia and melancholy will coincide: an age without conflict will dawn, perpetually busy- and without consciousness.”-Gunter Grass. Living in a perfect world is not worth giving up your choices. Without our choices, there would be several necessities missing from our human lives. Having a perfect world would eliminate a true family unit, a graduation, and a job.…

    The world has turned into something that induces fear in the pit of my heart and soul. Murder is now common, and rape is an everyday occurrence, people die every second and that could be my family or friends, depression is at an all time high, divorce is more common than not, and kids are having their own kids! The image of the perfect world is so blurry to me and I think the reason that is there’s nothing wrong with this world! The problem lies within the people who inhabit it! Our creator made this beautiful and man who sins modified it. Like a beautiful painting then man came and wrecked it scribbling and deteriorating the innate beauty. In a perfect world people would be nice to others; everyone would be kind to the world.…

    The Traffic in Vietnam

    • 920 Words
    • 4 Pages

    The traffic is worst during the rush hour when everyone is attempting to get to work or get home quickly. Some people ride their motorbikes on the pavement rather than waiting in the a traffic jam. The people walking are just as likely to get hit on the pavement as they are crossing the roads at such times. It's crazy. Road users become very impatient, constantly using their horns when there's obviously nowhere to go, even shouting at others to get out of the way. You have to be quite aggressive or you get nowhere.…

    Itard

    A patriarch of special education, Jean-Marc Gaspard Itard did not start out as the infamous physician he came to be. Educated to be a tradesman, Itard was forced to join the army during the late 1700’s, presenting himself as a physician. Demonstrating considerable talent for medicine, he received his medical education “on the job” and in 1796 took on a formal surgical internship in Paris. He quickly made his presence, and talents, known and was appointed Chief Physician at the National Institution for Deaf-Mutes in Paris, in 1800. He made his mark in medicine with numerous accomplishments in otology, but it was his work with “The Wild Boy of Aveyron” which earned him an international reputation. In early 1800, The Wild Boy of Aveyron was sent to Paris to be examined by a team of physicians. It was there where Itard met the boy, adopted him into his home and named him Victor. While other physicians declared Victor to be mentally deficient, Itard disagreed. He believed Victor seemed to be deficient due to a severe lack of human interaction. Itard devoted five years of his career into an intensive, individualized educational program. He believed that Victor could not learn effectively until he became attuned to his environment, leading Itard to rely heavily on sensory training and stimulation in his educational approach.…

    Traffic in Vietnam

    • 870 Words

    When thinking about traffic, I’ve a funny imagination of circulatory system. We need circulatory system to pass nutrients, blood cells, hormones through the human body, so does with the traffic. Traffic is one of the most important thing that every countries must pay much concern. And traffic in Viet Nam, what we’ve done in 10 years? 1 Good and bad improvements We should talk about the good first: For 10 years, we completed some main roads contributing to the socio- economic development such as Ben Thuy,Thai Binh bridges, national road No1( highway)… Mountainous or rural transport in this period was also given much care of the government for new lands, upgrading the old lands, broadening alleys. Going along with the economic development, traffic in Viet Nam has a great jump that is surprising. We can easily realize the changes. Ten years ago, the traffic was not as busy as nowadays. Even in the craziest dream, I had never dreamt of riding a motorbike( at that time: having a motorbike is quite luxury). Now you can own a motorbike with a small amount of money; and if you have enough money, you can own a private car. Apparently, the life’s standard is going up, it is expressed by the number of automobile driven on the roads. But is it good or bad? Is it the sign of Viet Nam economic’s Wake Up. In fact, transport doesn’t go a step ahead to meet the development’s requirements of the national economy. The traffic can be a nightmare for visitors to Viet Nam for the first time. Believe it or not, there are transport rules but people don’t seem really interested in following them. Three or four people on one motorbike is a common sight, particularly with the young. Every day, there’re accidents we see and fear, which about 30 people die per day according to some data on traffic accidents. The traffic is worst during the rush hour when everyone is attempting to get to work or get home quickly. Some people ride their motorbikes on the pavement rather than…

    My annoyance

    “Oh, No, I`m so exhausted, how much long do we have to wait to pass the traffic light?Why the car in front of us not moving?” I said to my daughter who was sitting next to me in the car. This happened on the weekend when we were on the way to go shopping at Zaiyon grocery store on Convoy. While my daughter and I love shopping on the weekends, because of the inconvenience of going out. We decided to go shopping on the weekday to avoid traffic on the roads, facing parking problem, and crowds inside the store made us too tired. To began with, traffic on the roads bothers us a lot. Last weekend because of the traffic, it took us about thirty minutes to get to the grocery store which usually takes us ten minutes on weekdays. To pass each traffic lights, we had to wait for almost five minutes because of the long line. Sometimes other drivers squeezed in our line to pass the traffic light while it was green because of frustration. The noise of the horn from the cars behind us almost made deaf because they did not want the other cars to get into our line. The heat and the pollution of the cars caused me to have headache. Not only the traffic was a hassle on the road, but finding a parking was another problem for us. Zaiyon shares its parking with other stores like restaurants, a hair salon and coffee shops. It is hard to get a spot. As soon as we got to the parking lot. Many cars jumped in front of us from the other side of the parking row to get our parking spot. As a result we had to drive around the parking lot to find another spot. Finally, we could find a parking spot after a long wait.…
