For:

Owning a private car should be encouraged

I think everyone has the right to enjoy a better life. The private car gives us a much greater degree of comfort and mobility in our life. With a car of our own, we can avoid going to work by crowded buses or subways. Moreover, having a car also means that we can enjoy the weekends and holidays better. With a car we can go wherever we like, even to places where the regular buses and trains do not reach. Therefore, owning a private car should be encouraged by our society.

Against:

Owniog a private car should not be encouraged

Nowadays, the number of private cars is on the rise in our country, which has given rise to many serious problems. First of all, it is self-evident that the automobile contributes much to the air pollution. Secondly, private cars have a direct relationship with traffic jams in cities. Without an effective regulation on private cars , the traffic system will suffer more serious problems. Last but not the least , private cars consume a lot of energy , which will be a threat to the sustainable development of our country.
