America transportation system
By Michael
As we know,American is regarded as a country living in the vehicle.From 1988 to 1998,California's population increased 18 percent while vehicle miles traveled grew by 21 percent overall.(Source:California Legislative Analyst's Office,May 2000).The number of registered vehicles has grown 28 percent in the last decade.(Source:California Chamber of Commerce,March 5,1999).The average California household owns 1.78 vehicles,only fractionally higher than the national average.(Source:U.S.Census,Aug.2001).So I think how to improve the standard of moving is important to the American government.We found the transportation system is so advanced.How they can own these well transportation systems?After studying I found there are many lessons worthy us learning.
1.The government paid more attention on it.
The government knew that good transportation system could dramatically increase our mobility,improve our economic competitiveness,improve the environment,and enhance the quality of our daily lives.Besides these,Transportation facilities and investments provide significant economic stimulus and job creation in the state.Transportation construction is a $160 billion-a-year industry in the U.S.It employs more than 1.6 million people.(Source:The American Road and Transportation Builders Association).So the government,no matter Federal or local,must invest on it.During the 1990s,the federal government put $156 billion in federal funds into highways,while spending a total of $45 billion on transit,bicycling,and walking facilities combined.Only in the fiscal 1994 President Clinton proposed spending $40.2 billion on transportation,including additional funds to bolster safety programs and fulfill his pledge to "rebuild America." That would be a 10% increase from what Congress appropriated for fiscal 1993,which ends Sept.30.The administration is seeking the funds to carry out plans to accelerate investment in highways,airports and other infrastructure projects,Transportation Secretary.The federal government had allocated $4.5 billion in federal money to rebuild the transportation infrastructure destroyed by the September 11 terrorist attack on the World Trade Center.The local government also paid money on the transportation.
From this chart we can see that California government plan to use $8285 millions on the transportation in 2005鈥?006.That shares 71% of the total expenditures.The planning,development,and delivery of transportation services involves a multiplicity of local,regional,State,Federal and private sector agencies.No single agency at any level -- public or private-- is able to achieve its specific mission without the help of others.
2.The government made full use of the policy to improve the transportation.
There are so many vehicles need parking in the downtown of Los Angeles city.It is difficulty for the government to invest too large money on it.So the government made full use of the policy that the air space can be sold.In the city rebuilding,they selected an area and cooperated with others to build a two-story parking lot.They collected the money by sold the air space and the funds.The government let other enterprise operate it.They can ask for fee that was lower than the average standard in order to sustain itself.Now the parking lots have been used for many years.It met the needs of the people.I think it is a good example worthy us learning.
3.They utilized the high technology on the transportation.
They made use of the computer on the transportation.The Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) was a good example.BRT makes use of sleek high-tech vehicles resembling a hybrid bus/train that can travel on specially designed "guide ways" as well as regular roads.A BRT vehicle would be able to carry passengers over a dedicated right-of-way,such as an old railroad line,and then wheel through city centers and neighborhoods picking up riders.As BRT is envisioned,intersections would be realigned with dedicated bus lanes,and a BRT driver could signal the traffic light from a short distance away and trigger a green light to let the commuters through ahead of the cars.BRT systems are already operating successfully worldwide and in 14 cities in the United States including Boston,Cleveland,Detroit,Hartford,Miami,Pittsburgh,and Los Angeles.
It can reduce actual traffic by 5 to 8 percent.
4.They have a long term plan on it.
In 1993,California had made a long term Transportation.It provided direction for planning,developing,operating,and maintaining California鈥檚 transportation system.This State long-range transportation plan is required by the federal Inter modes Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991,and was developed under SB 1435 (Chapter 1177,1992 Statutes) and Governor鈥檚 Executive Order W-36-92.It has been developed by the California Department of Transportation in cooperation with other state agencies and departments,local governments,and interested members of the public and the private sector.Its policy focus on transportation and economic development,transportation system safety,maintenance and enhancement,and environmental protection remains the same.The plan recommends the convening of a special commission to review the future of transportation in California; the developing of a State goods movement strategy; and the refining of the State鈥檚 role in non-highway transportation modes.The CTP includes a review of California鈥檚 transportation system and the major policies and objectives for California鈥檚 future transportation system.Actions are identified under each objective,for near-term implementation or the for the development of legislation,process or consensus,by the
transportation community.It strides to provide California a modern,balanced,integrated multimode transportation system for the twenty-first century.
5.NPO made more contributions to it.
There are many NPO (Nonprofit Organization) supply the service to the transportation in the US.The famous one is AAA (American Automobile Association).On March 4,1902,nine motor clubs met in Chicago to form the American Automobile Association.After one hundred years of actively representing the interests of motorists and other travelers,AAA is currently nearly 45 million members strong.From Emergency Road Service to approved auto repair facilities,from the school safety patrol to driver education programs,from special cruise and tour packages to member discounts around the world,they stand behind our commitment to provide safety,security and peace of mind.As AAA continues to incorporate the latest technology including Internet access to products and services,telemetric capabilities,stored value cards and more,they enter the future with a vigorous commitment to serve our members.
I feel that the America transportation is good.But the government and the citizens did not think so.They regarded it as a one of the serious problems they must work hard to resolve.I do believe that it would be better in the future.

感恩生活
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
一次，美国前总统罗斯福家失盗，被偷去了许多东西，一位朋友闻讯后，忙写信安慰他，劝他不必太在意。罗斯福给朋友写了一封回信：“亲爱的朋友，谢谢你来信安慰我，我现在很平安。感谢上帝：因为第一，贼偷去的是我的东西，而没有伤害我的生命；第二，贼只偷去我部分东西，而不是全部；第三，最值得庆幸的是，做贼的是他，而不是我。”对任何一个人来说，失盗绝对是不幸的事，而罗斯福却找出了感恩的三条理由。这个故事，启发我们该如何感恩生活。
感恩是一种处世哲学，是生活中的大智能。人生在世，不可能一帆风顺，种种失败、无奈都需要我们勇敢地面对、旷达地处理。这时，是一味地埋怨生活，从此变得消沉、萎靡不振？还是对生活满怀感恩，跌倒了再爬起来？英国作家萨克雷说：“生活就是一面镜子，你笑，它也笑；你哭，它也哭。”你感恩生活，生活将赐予你灿烂的阳光；你不感恩，只知一味地怨天尤人，最终可能一无所有！成功时，感恩的理由固然能找到许多；失败时，不感恩的借口却只需一个。殊不知，失败或不幸时更应该感恩生活。 感恩，使我们在失败时看到差距，在不幸时得到慰藉，获得温暖，激发我们挑战困难的勇气，进而获取前进的动力。就像罗斯福那样，换一种角度去看待人生的失意与不幸，对生活时时怀一份感恩的心情，则能使自己永远保持健康的心态、完美的人格和进取的信念。感恩不纯粹是一种心理安慰，也不是对现实的逃避，更不是阿Q的精神胜利法。感恩，是一种歌唱生活的方式，它来自对生活的爱与希望。
在水中放进一块小小的明矾，就能沉淀所有的渣滓；如果在我们的心中培植一种感恩的思想，则可以沉淀许多的浮躁、不安，消融许多的不满与不幸。感恩，使生活变得更加美好。
在平静的日子里，生活淡如一泓湖水，波澜不惊；又如一页白纸，平淡无奇。我们感到了疲倦与无奈。其实我们的生活是多美多姿的，平淡的是我们麻木的心。给我们自己下场雨吧，搅醒混沌的心。用我们多情的心去感悟生活，感恩我们的幸福生活。
一早醒来，我为自己刚刚经历了一个充实的一天，而又将开始另一个充满神奇与情趣的一天而感到高兴。那这一天又将会有什么让我们去感激与动情的呢？推开窗户，映入眼帘的是初夏的早晨，和风吹来，波动着绿得可爱的树叶，绿叶顿时从睡梦中醒来，抖擞着精神向着我打着招呼“嗨，哥们！早上好”。大自然从早晨就送给我一个绿色的心情。
怀揣着彤彤的心情，上课去。早起的朝阳为我铺满阳光的金地毯，鸟儿为我奏起前进的凯歌。霎时我觉得自己仿佛是载誉而来的英雄又象是踌躇满志的大人物了。路旁可见手捧书晨读的同学，他们踱着步子，真有点知识分子的愚呐。忽然觉得生活是这样有趣和美好，平淡中竟蕴藏着万般情态。感谢生活给了我美好的天气，美丽的早晨。
也许生病是我们最不愿的事了。可是在我生病时，老师送来了关切的慰问，同学送来了真挚的关爱，甚至是同室的病友都送来关切的眼神。我从未觉得竟是那样的幸福与感动，也许是生活要我知道生活的多姿与美好。我觉得那一滴一滴的液体忽然化作了充满全身的爱。感谢生活让我生病，感谢生活让我真切的体会到了来自生活的关爱。其实我们都是呼吸着充满着爱的空气的。
从来没有觉得黑色的夜晚会是美好的。可当我有一天怀着好奇的心往外一瞥。我的目光与另一种光线相遇。那是藏在花与草中的灯光，那灯光是如此的慈祥的，象是一位老人为着他周围的花草也为我们守夜。原来即时在我们休息时，生活的馈赠还在播撒着。
正在写着这些，忽然心起舞了。原来是远处传来了悠扬的歌声，心就莫名的激动起来了。我真想哭，因为多情的心让我对生活无以回报而感到伤心。
也许生活本身就没有想让我们去回报，就像我们的父母一样，他们在远处微笑着，默默地为我们付出，却只求我们健康快乐的成长。我们无法报答完这份恩情，我们可做的就是：感恩我们的生活，并为我们的生活增添爱与美好。
感恩，是一种哲学
成功的时候需要感恩，因为你赐予我们的快乐；失败时也需要感恩，因为你赐予我们磨练
我感谢你的博大的胸怀，孕育出多彩的生活；感谢你的孜孜教诲，让我知道何去何从；更感谢你的醒世明理，使我不再彷徨迷茫……
年轻的我们，有一颗狂野的新，喜欢热闹与惊喜，充满好奇与疑。初绽的花朵是稚嫩的，它 需要时间的捶打使之成熟，而你，便是让我们稚嫩的心渐渐变的成熟的导师。你无言的面容给了我默默的教诲，生活原本就是一个由幼稚到成熟的过程，于是我们不再为自己的遭遇而悲痛。收敛想飞的心，做事学会了前思后量，尽管眼里还会洒下几颗泪珠，可在阳光的照射下仍放出七彩光芒。
你用你的博大包容了众生的过失，你用你的智慧引导了误入歧途的人。你点亮芸芸众生蒙尘已久的心灯，让我们感受世间的真情。你教导我们“勿以恶小而为之，勿以善小而不为”，于是我们有了举善扬恶的凛然正气；你教导我们“三更灯火五更起，正是男儿读书时”“莫等闲，白了少年头，空悲切”的训导，于是我们有了累累硕果；你教导我们“天下兴亡，匹夫有责”，于是我们有了一腔报国热情，成为一代热血青年……
因为你，我们不再幼稚，不再任性，不再软弱；有了你，我们变的稳重，变的成熟，变的有志！感谢你—生活，是你让我们感到成长，感到快乐！
感恩生活
——让我拥有一个充满爱的家
如果说生活是七色的水彩，那麽爱就是其中最温馨的红色；如果说生活是一张专辑，那麽爱就是这张专&! #36753;中的主打歌；如果说生活是一个大花，那麽爱就是那浪漫的玫瑰， 纯洁的百合。因为爱如此美好，所以，我要感恩生活，让我拥有一个充满爱的家庭，让我在爱的包围中成长。
有人把“爱”列为三个等式：
爱÷爱=唯一的爱
爱+爱=更爱
爱x爱=无限的爱
在我的家中，能很好地体现出这三个等式关系，因为，我家到处充满了爱，我就在这爱的家庭中健康地成长。
走进“爱的小屋”，很醒目地就可以看见墙上挂着的照片，第一幅就是爸爸妈妈的结婚照片，这张照片是九十年代拍的，看起来并不那麽时尚，照片中爸爸搂着妈妈，两人笑得甜甜的样子，能让人有一种温馨、甜蜜的感觉。现在，随着时间的积累，爸爸妈妈之间的感情更加深厚了。爸爸对妈妈是关怀备至。平日，下班回到家，爸爸怕妈妈劳累，主动担起了“家庭主! 妇”的任务，烧饭、刷碗、整理房间，真可谓! ;是一个典型的“模范丈夫”。
妈妈对爸爸也是体贴入微。这不，近些天，天气渐渐寒冷起来，妈妈怕爸爸老寒腿的毛病又犯，特地买了新毛线在织毛衣店为爸爸定做了一条厚毛裤。爸爸穿上后， 又暖和又轻便， 美在心里笑在脸上。爸爸与妈妈之间的爱用“爱÷爱=唯一的爱”这一等? ?/SPAN>关系来形容，真是再恰当不过了。
在家中，爸爸妈妈对我的爱更是无微不至，从墙上第二幅照片上就能看出几分。照片是在前年我生日时照的。瞧！照片上那桌丰盛的饭菜，还有中间那个漂亮的大蛋糕，都是爸爸妈妈为我准备的，我们三个人正围坐在一起吹蜡烛。现在回想起当时的情景，我真是太幸福了！
平日，妈妈对我百般疼爱，在我心中，她是个慈母的典范，而爸爸总是对我要求很严格，从不轻易地夸奖我。记得小学五年级时，我参加了县里的书法比赛并获得了二等奖，我别提有多高兴了。%2! 4403;我得意洋洋地把获奖证书拿给爸爸妈妈看时， 不出我所料，我得到了妈妈的夸奖：“我们飞扬(인명)真是太棒了，得了个二等奖，咱们得(d6i)好好庆祝一下。”妈妈边翻看着证书边说。而爸爸脸上丝毫没有什麽改变，依然是那一脸严肃。他拿过奖看了看，对我说：“这些成绩只能代表过去，从现在起，仍然要坚持练习，更加努力才行， 否则，下次恐怕连优秀奖也拿不到。”听了这一番话，&! #24320;始我有些不高兴，可事后仔细想了想，爸୬! 0;的教导确实很有道理，他的话中， 蕴含更多的则是鞭策。
妈妈给予我慈祥的母爱，爸爸给予我严厉的父爱，这不又应验了另一个等式——“爱+爱=更爱”吗？
我家到处 充满了爱，爸爸妈妈相互间唯一的爱，爸爸妈妈给予我双重的爱，也使我更爱他们，更爱这个家，我家的爱真是“爱x爱=无限的爱”啊！
正因为有这无限的爱，爸爸妈妈才能和睦相处，安心工作， 爱岗敬业，年年双双被单位评为先进工作者；也正因为有妈妈的关爱鼓舞，爸爸的严格要求，我才得以 茁壮成长，学习永争优秀。
我感恩，感恩生活，感恩网络，感恩朋友，感恩大自然，每天，我们都以一颗感动的心去承接生活中的一切。
我感谢……
感谢伤害我的人，因为他磨练了我的心志；
感谢欺骗我的人,因为他增进了我的见识；
感谢遗弃我的人,因为他教导了我应自立；
感谢绊倒我的人，因为他强化了我的能力；

感谢快乐，让我幸福地绽开笑容，在美好生活着；
感谢伤痛，让我们学会了坚忍，也练就了我们释怀生命之起落的本能；
感谢生活，让我在漫长岁月的季节里拈起生命的美丽；
感谢有你，尽管远隔千里，可你寒冬里也给我温暖的心怀；
感谢关怀，生命因你而多了充实与清新；
感谢所有的一切~ ~ ~ ~
