六、书面表达(满分30分)

　　56、请以闯红灯(red light running)为主题写一篇短文，内容包括：

　　(1)闯红灯的现状;

　　(2)闯红灯的原因及后果。

　　答案解析：

　　The red light running has become one of the most common traffic violations nowadays. It is dangerous.

　　The causes of that are mostly bad driving habits, such as road rage, impatience to wait for the signal to turn green, or simply distractions while driving. Some red light runners merely ignore the traffic rules and trust the luck. The consequences for these could be the fines red light runners have to pay and the damaged cars that have to be repaired. But the situation could be worse, such as serious injuries and even death.

　　Thus, everyone should avoid running a red light. It is not only for your own sake but for your family members as well as others on the street.
