No Car Day was first started by 34 cities in France on September 22, 1998. It was started to protect the environment. By now, more than 1,000 cities around the world have had a No Car Day.
The first No Car Day in China was in Chengdu in 2001. Other cities including Taipei, Shanghai and Wuhan, also support the day.
In Beijing, more and more people are taking part in the activity. It asks drivers to leave their cars at home for one day each month and walk or ride a bike to work. It also calls on Beijingers not to use cars on June 5th (World Environment Day). The slogan(口号) for the day is, “ If we drive for one less day, we can have one more nice day.”
So far, more than 200,000 drivers have shown their support. “We can’t control the weather, but we can choose not to drive,” said Wu Zhonghua, a car club chairman. Beijing is trying to have 238 blue sky days this year. In the first quarter of 2007, Beijing only had 52 blue sky days. This was 11 days less than the number for the same period last year. Much of the dust comes from the desert, but cars cause most of the air pollution. We must do more for No Car Day.

Dear editor（编辑）
I live in a beautiful city. Many visitors come to my city. There are so many colorful peacocks(孔雀)here .The peacocks mostly live on the grass land of Dongfeng Square（广场）
They are given food freely by visitors ,They usually throw food to them ,and  don’t think about at all whether the food is right or not. Some of the peacocks became ill, some even died after eating the bad food given by the visitors . I’m sure most of the visitors who throw food to the peacocks really like the birds ,but don’t realize(意识到)that they may be doing them harm (伤害).The visitors should be told that what have done is very harmful to the birds , and this kind of thing must be stopped from happening Perhaps we can build some small shops beside Dongfeng Square to sell peacock food .For us every person, it’s our duty to give more love to these beautiful birds and to look after them carefully.
Yours,
