我的建议是讨论在城市征收拥堵费是否可以减少交通拥堵。

The reason behind choosing this topic is that congestion charges have been implemented in several cities worldwide, and thus, it is a contemporary issue.

Cities have passed congestion charges or built bike lanes -- like Paris that turned this highway, right next to my home, in the middle of the city, into a waterfront park.

They're trying, as I say they've installed congestion charges and laws to prevent it from happening, but people will just shoulder that cost, people will simply say " I have to pay five pounds more each time I go to town" .

他们确实有在尝试，就像我说过的，他们设置了拥堵费和法规来防止出现这种情况，但是人们只会承担起这笔费用，他们只会说“我每次去市里的时候都得多付5英镑”，仅此而已。
