Half of the people surveyed are in favour of the idea while the other half take an objection to it, who hold the view for the following reasons. The chart shows half of the objectors are troubled by frequent traffic jams on their way to school. It seems a waste of time since they are always held up for quite a long time during rush hours. From another perspective, objectors argue(表明观点） that children can hardly stand on their own feet if they are driven to school every day. In addition, one third of them complain it adds to their parents’ burden from many aspects, such as money, time and energy.

• Nowadays it’s common for parents to drive their children to and from school. Recently a survey has been done on the issue. Half of the people surveyed are in favor of the practice（做法）. Among them, half believe that driving children to school saves time. Another 30% think it comfortable to go by car, especially in harsh weather. About 15% consider it a good choice just for the sake of children’s safety. Still others think it offers more chances for parents to communicate with their children.
• While I agree that going to school by car is a better solution for young children, I don’t think it a good idea for older children. With high pressure on their studies, they need to find extra time for exercise. It would be better if they chose to cycle or walk to and from school instead of taking a car, which will definitely help them keep fit. (128)

Personally, I don’t think it a good idea to drive children to and from school. Though it is a common social phenomenon, it is not a necessity and may have negative effect on children’s growth.
• Personally, I like the idea of driving children to and from school. The children may have more sleep time by getting up a bit later. Also, more and more families own private cars. The parents tend to drive to work. It would save a lot of trouble for children if they give their children a ride on their way to and from work. (121)
