　　预测范文

　　The figures in the above column chart indicate the stable increase of private cars from 1980 to 2010. As is shown in the chart, there were five families in every thousand possessing a private car in 1980. During the next thirty years, the number was rising all the time. It went up to 40 in 2000, and in 2010, there were 70 private cars in every 1,000 families.

　　There are a good many factors for this increasing tendency and the main reasons could be concluded as follows. To begin with, with the speedy development of economy and the increase in people’s income, a large number of families could afford the car. In addition, a great many Chinese cities such as Beijing and Shanghai are being extended with high speed and many people’s houses are far from their work places. To them, owning a private car could save time and bring a lot of conveniences. Finally, with the development of the high way, the transportation is greatly improved, which creates the fine condition for the drivers, encouraging a lot of people to buy a car belonged to his or her own.

　　From the discussion above, we can conclude that families in mounting numbers will own private cars, and a private car will become a common household transportation tool, just like the bicycle today.

　　上述图表中的数字显示了从1980年到2010年私家车的增长情况。如图所示，在1980年，每一千个家庭拥有5辆私家车。在30年中，这个数字一直在增长，2000年这个数字变成了40，而到2010年每千户家庭拥有70辆私家车。

　　私家车的增长是由很多因素造成的，主要原因可归纳如下。首先，随着经济的迅猛发展和人们收入的增加，很多家庭有能力负担私家车。其次，很多像北京、上海这样的城市正在加速扩建中，很多人的住所离工作地方很远，对于他们来说拥有私家车可以节省时间并且带来诸多方便。最后，随着高速公路的发展，交通状况大为改善，为司机们创造了很好的环境，鼓励着很多人购买一辆属于自己的车。

　　从上面的讨论中我们可以得出如下结论：越来越多的家庭将有私家车，而私车将成为一种普通的家庭交通工具，就像今天的自行车一样。
