A: Yes, a truck had a crash with a car at the cross. Then the ruins fired at once and no one got caught in the accident.

B: It‟s so bad! But how could such a horrible accident happen?

A: As you know, just drunk driving again.

B: Oh, drunk driving! So why can‟t those drivers be more responsible? They should make sure that driving a car requires much higher wariness!

A: So it is. And people often lose their self- discipline. If we want to decline the frequency of accidents caused by drunk driving, the society should have zero tolerance on drunk driving.

B: And some measures should be taken.

A: For example?

B: First, the penalty for drunk driving should be more severe to have deterrence effect. The current penalty for license suspension is clearly not enough.

A: Yes! And jail time should be considered for each violation, especially repeated offenders.

B:And w hat’s more, men often stand for ambition and aggression while women are reckoned to be moderate and favourable as a rule.

A: I agree with you.Consequently, male leaders are more often appointed as final decision makers while females are believed to be more apt in team work When people, both men and women ,begin to find some dreaming positions, employers always inevitably attach great significance in different genders even if both of them are qualified for parity.

B:Yeah, and such fact can signify the gender discrimination in society as a result of gender differences.Although everyone must concede this objective reality to our daily life, no one should not exaggerate this difference to create some barriers to prevent women’s progress making.

A: And just bear that,…All Men Are Created Equal’, so gender differences are not exempt in judging a person can only by his or her abilities.

A: Yeah. But nowadays the kids who are educated in schools are poor in Chinese. I think they should only take English as a course when they still can‟t use Chinese proficiently. It‟s such a pity that a person forget his mother
