A Shopping Center in the Neighborhood 英语四级及格线

Although large shopping centers are very convenient and good places to spend free time, they can also bring some disadvantages, and for this reason I would disagree with the building of one in my neighborhood.

First of all, one disadvantage of having a large shopping center would be a great increase in traffic. More cars would not only bring traffic jams but also noise and parking problems. Second, a large shopping center requires a lot of space. To build one, some open space would have to be sacrificed. We might no longer have room for a sports ground.

Just because of the above disadvantages, I would oppose any plan to construct a large shopping center in my neighborhood. Although it is necessary for me to visit shopping centers on occasion, I could spend some time traveling to another one not far away. My neighborhood is a peaceful and quiet place and I hope it will stay that way.

社区内的购物中心

虽然大型购物中心非常方便也是闲暇时候的好去处，但那他们也会带来不便，也因为这个我反对在我们社区内建一个购物中心。

首先，大型购物中心带来的不便之一是车流的增加。更多的车不只会带来拥堵还会带来更多的噪音和停车问题。其次，建一个大型的购物中心需要很大的空间，就会牺牲一部分露天场所。我们可能会就此失去露天运动的场地。

因为以上提到的问题，我反对任何在我们社区建购物中心的提案。虽然对我来说时不时去购物是有必要的，但我会花时间去别的不太远的地方。我的社区是一个平和安宁的地方，我希望这种氛围可以一直保持下去。
