我当心有什么用？我走得好好的，没乱穿马路，也没走在机动车道上。谁知道会碰上这种冒失鬼？那么宽的马路不开，偏要开到我走路的地方。真是神经病！

发展中小城市啊。你以为8亿农民都来上海啊？你看现在农村真的大变样了，跟附近的城市都连成一体了。去年我们回老家，我都不认识你们村进村的那条小路了。我第一次去的时候那条路坑坑洼洼的，现在，哇，八车道，多宽敞，多气派，比城市还城市。

The smaller cities are under development. Do you think 800 million people are all coming to Shanghai? You can see that the countryside has really changed quite a lot. Nearby cities have all been connected together. Last year when we went home, I didn't recognize the road that leads to your village. The first time I went there, that road was full of potholes. Now - whoa! - it's eight lanes, wide and grand. It's just like what you'd find in the city.

Uh-huh. Actually, I’ve always felt that the public transportation system is pretty good. The light-rail and surface transportation goes everywhere. The buses also have special lanes, so they go faster than the cars can. In addition, the fares are very low.
