The town I live in is about to put cameras at all traffic lights to catch people who run red lights. It 31 me of how many people I’ve seen who take the yellow light as a signal to go faster. I also can’t 32 why people don’t move when the traffic light has turned green. Above all, there are those 33 situations in which someone doesn’t even 34 that the light is red, and just keeps going; that is how many accidents happen. All these situations make me 35 about the purpose of traffic lights.
However, it’s even more 36 to imagine letting people make their own 37 at a crowded traffic crossing. Who decides who goes next? 38 I guess I do like the idea of a system to 39 traffic. And I also do my best to 40 the traffic signals: to go, to be 41 , and to stop when I’m supposed to.
It occurs to me that my 42 have done much the same for me in terms of 43 me how to live. They have given me many 44 lights: to live in harmony with others to help others, to live with 45 and purpose. They have also given me some red lights so that my 46 doesn’t goastray(走入歧途): to watch my temper, and to control my desires. And there have been some yellow lights: to watch how much I drink, to keep control of my behavior, to 47 school regularly and work hard.
If I obey these signals, my life will be as 48 as it can. Just as I’m wise to pay attention to the traffic lights when I’m walking 49 the street, I’m wise to pay attention to the “life 50 ” given me by my parents.

I’m still able to teach my class, and I’ve been able to arrange for the tow truck to meet me after class.
