书面表达

Sunday, April 28, Fine

I had a good time during today’s school outing. On the early morning, we took the school bus to Shengjing Mountain which was very beautiful . At the foot of it, we saw lots of green plants. We began climbing the mountain at 9. On the top of it, we went sightseeing and had a picnic. We also took some photos there. Getting down from the mountain, we swept the rubbish. At about 4, we went back. We all enjoyed ourselves. I think it interesting and enjoyable to go for an outing at this time of year, but first of all, we should pay attention to our safety and help each other whenever possible.

Drunk driving is against the traffic law. But there are still many drivers who drink and drive. I think it’s bad for both the drivers themselves and the others. Every year drunk driving causes a lot of accidents. Many people are killed or badly hurt.

In order to keep safe, drivers mustn’t drink and drive. They must obey the traffic law. If they drink, they mustn’t drive by themselves. They should take a taxi or ask others for help. And the government must make stricter traffic laws.
