7G@V F5A_p*C636551早晚上下班时间,大都市freeway的车速比一般道路还要慢,无数车辆拥上来,造成bumper-to-bumper traffic(车的保险杆相互碰撞的交通状况),这时的车速叫snail-paced traffic(蜗牛步行的
交通);或者干脆slows to a halt(动弹不得).这种塞车现象可以叫做traffic jam或traffic congestion;更严重的交通状况称为gridlock(严重塞车,僵局)

I was stuck in a traffic jam on the way home from work. I listened to my favorite singer's album almost two whole times.

The Longest time I got stuck in traffic was about a year ago. I am living in Beijing and the traffic jams are quite very normal for people living around. So one hour to two three hour traffic jams are quite average but i was stuck in a traffic jam once from 9 pm till 4am. I slept in the car on the main road. 无忧雅思网_g t_nee_S_u_t)`_L
This is something I really hate. To get stuck in a heavy traffic. When I was still employed, I got stuck in a heavy traffic for veral times. The usual 1 and a half hour's trip to the office took me almost 4 hours and it was really traumatic.

_E6I_A0a3i2]4D636551I like waiting, even in traffic jams. It gives me a chance to listen the wonderful variety of radio programming available. Watching other drivers in the jam and wondering what their cell phone conversations are about is also entertaining. Come to think of it, waiting is som
etimes better than not waiting.
_u7b_n1ZW636551During traffic, I usually talk on the cellphone, text message, play with my dog, eat a burger with fries, block my dog from my burger, do some palm reading. 无忧雅思网_\,M&C)|___R3J&H
I usually roll down the windows, turn my music up, bob my head side to side, and belt out. At least I'm entertaining to the other poor folks stuck in the jam with me.

k636551I listen to the radio, make phone calls to my girlfriend or clients or family. If it's stopped, I do news paper word puzzles. 大学生创业风险无忧雅思网d1B_J)U_G_F8Q4i h ]
I usually channel surf the radio, comparing different traffic reports. When I get bored with that, I check out the drivers next to me and imagine what their life story is all about!
%k-]F6F6t_D.G_S636551I dream about the day I can leave this place, move to a city where I can buy a hou for what it's truly worth and where traffic doesn't dictate your ability to get anywhere at anytime in a decent amount of time. 无忧雅思网%I_x2}_r)R G'Y

I have never been happy in a traffic jam; it's a pain in the neck. I want to jump out of the car and walk along the tops of all the other vehicles. If I'm in a Taxi, I will worry about the taxi fare.
.f ]_CG){#k#R_o_|636551I had a full tank of gas one time in traffic, and I was by mylf, no kids, and I just sat there and relaxed and listened to my music. When there's nothing el you can do, there's the phone. It was actually nice! It doesn't bother me in the least, unless I’m trying to meet a deadline where other people are dependent 无忧雅思网_p#^;Q_Q_e!^'d \_e
I hate them if I am busy. But love them if I have time. Especially if I have a friend in the car becau that's a classic time to sing loudly.
_G,H_T!A+[8V+~'s.|636551I don't e much point in losing my cool over a traffic jam. I sigh, pick some music that I like out of the CD collection and either try to figure a way around the jam or wait it out.
3O2k_t0Y_t_u_D3`$e2[636551I hate traffic jam. It ems like it is taking longer very day to get to work and to go home. It is just getting wor. A year ago it took me 35 minutes to get to work and now it takes m
e 50 minutes to 1 hour to get to work. It is driving me nuts. I guess it is due to the construction everywhere and the city population is growing rapidly. I have en some aggressively drivers were speeding and illegally driving the wrong way trying to get to work on time. One driver cut in front of me without turning the signal on.

I absolutely HATE when this happens! O.K. that said, generally I first turn up the music and pray for something really good to listen to, then as I crawl along toward the next exit I think of where I am, where I'm going and whether it's worth it to get off there. I often take the alternate route. So I learned to be patient by listening to the radio, or call someone on the cell phone. Sometimes I don't turn on the radio at all and go deep in thoughts or pray.

1. When do traffic jams usually happen? 无忧雅思网_a&Y_`$T_d4B_j
-]_k_y_e_h#N2j636551
Watch out for traffic jams - especially in the middle of the city (around Siam Square) and around peak hours (morning and evening rush hour traffic). You can be jammed up really tight and everything will come down to a crawl if not a complete stand still. 无忧雅思网_U;x_I_N_i)m L
Try not to take taxi during peak hour and on weekend night. You will easily be trapped for 1 hour inside a cab.无忧雅思网_E_O_w_c_[_{"u"D

Lots and lots of cars. Lot and lots of people who sit in the traffic jams and never learn that they are a major cau and insist on taking the same jammed roads at the same damned time. Poorly designed roads allow people to do stupid things in traffic that cau accidents. Stupid people who do stupid things in traffic regardless of the road design.
