76、 a big city is no easy matter, just like the popular saying goes, “Taking a bus is too crowded, getting a taxi is too expensive, buying a car is not practical.” It seems that traffic jams and cities go hand in hand.

81、can also help people improve their health and meet others with similar interests.参考范文：Some people often complain about traffic jams in big cities, but you do have some ways to avoid it.
