Dẫn chứng: Like millions of people, Taras Gresco is a ‘straphanger' - a person who rides public transportation. In his book straphanger: Saving Our Cities and Ourselves from the Automobile, Gresco describe the benefits of public transportation. Firstly, it is better for the environment. When people use public transportation, they use less fuel. Twenty people on one bus use much less fuel than 20 people in 20 cars. Fewer cars mean less pollution and cleaner air.
Using public transportation can be good for your health in other ways.
Dịch: Giống như hàng triệu người, Taras Gresco sử dụng giao thông công cộng, ông toàn đứng trên những chiếc xe bus đông đúc vì hết chỗ ngồi rồi (A). Trong cuốn sách của mình: Giải cứu các thành phố của chúng ta và chính chúng ta khỏi ô tô, Gresco mô tả những lợi ích của giao thông công cộng (B). Thứ nhất, nó thân thiện hơn với môi trường. Khi mọi người sử dụng giao thông công cộng, họ sử dụng ít nhiên liệu hơn. Hai mươi người trên một xe buýt sử dụng nhiên liệu ít hơn nhiều so với 20 người trong 20 xe. Ít xe ô tô hơn có nghĩa là ít ô nhiễm hơn và không khí sạch hơn. (C1 - có lợi cho các thành phố - sạch hơn ít ô nhiễm hơn)
Sử dụng giao thông công cộng có thể tốt cho sức khỏe của bạn theo những cách khác. (C2: có lợi cho chính sức khỏe chúng ta)

The word robot first appeared in a 1921 stage play by Czech writer Karel Capek. In the play, a man makes a machine that can think, which he calls a robot and which ends up killing its owner. In the 1940s, the American science fiction writer Isaac Asimov wrote a series of stories about robots and invented the term robotics, the science of robots. Meanwhile, in the real world, the first robots were developed by an engineer, Joseph F. Engelberger, and an inventor, George C. Devol. Together they started Unimation, a manufacturing company that produces the first real robot in 1961, called the Unimate. Robots of this type were installed at a General Motors automobile plant and proved to be a success. They worked reliably and saved money for General Motors, so other companies were soon acquiring robots as well. These industrial robots were nothing like the terrifying creatures that can often be seen in science fiction films. In fact, these robots looked and behaved nothing like humans. They were simply pieces of computer-controlled machinery, with metal "arms” or “hands". Since they were made of metal, they could perform certain jobs that were difficult or dangerous for humans, particularly jobs that involve high heat. And since robots were tireless and never got hungry, sleepy, or distracted, they were useful for tasks that would be tiring or boring for humans. Industrial robots have been improved over the years, and today they are used in many factories around the world. Though the use of robots has meant the loss of some jobs, at the same time other jobs have been created in the design, development, and production of the robots.
