Large cities often have problems that small towns and rural areas do not have Two of thebiggest problems are heavy traffic and the pollution that cars create Of course, traffic problems andpollution are not only found in big cities However, the higher populations and larger number of cars
on the roads in cities can make the problems happen more often and with more noticeable effects.One of the most common traffic problems that large cities have is congestion As the population
of a city increases, so does the number of cars on the road Cities cannot always improve the numberand size of their roads and highways to keep up with the number of cars The result is trafficcongestion, or traffic jams
When traffic jams happen, cars that are stuck in the congestion continue to run their engines.This creates pollution and is a big problem Pollution causes health problems for the people in citiesand also hurts the environment

of cars breaking down or overheating Around 400 traffic police have been assigned to patrol the jam
to make sure tensions don’t rise too far The horrendous snarl-up is the result of the explosion in thenumber of cars on Chinese roads As China becomes wealthier, more people are buying cars, thuscausing more traffic problems

Laura - romance
I really like The Notebook', it’s a romantic classic The story is about a poor boy, called Noah,
who meets a rich girl, called Allie, and they fall in love over one summer But of course, there areproblems Allie’s parents don’t approve of Noah because he’s poor and they get separated, then a lot
of time passes before they can get together again She goes away to college and he writes to herevery day, but she doesn’t get the letters Then after quite a long time, Noah buys an old house which
he promised to restore for Allie He does it up and she sees a newspaper article about it and goes tofind him again You can probably guess the rest, but it’s a bit complicated because she is engaged toanother man Noah is played by Ryan Gosling, who’s my favourite actor, and he stops the film beingtoo soppy - but you still cry a lot at the end Rachel McAdams is really good too, as Allie
Henry - action film
I think my favourite film is Skyfall, the last James Bond movie It stars Daniel Craig again andJavier Bardem is this really evil baddie They’re both great, and so is Judi Dench as M, Bond’s boss It’s
a bit different from other Bond films The story is more important, although there is still a lot ofaction It’s really well filmed, especially in the scenes which are shot in Shanghai and Scotland, and it’sreally exciting, of course Bond is also a bit different - although he does amazing things, he seemsolder and that makes him more human and the story more realistic Oh, the song by Adele is great,too You know it won an Oscar?
