Hello everybody! I'd like to thank you in advance for helping me with this essay. I hope you like and hope to get some feedback.
I'd like to point out that I wrote it once and then, following some general suggestions on a website on how an essay should be written, I modified it.
I've been 'training' for Cae Exam!
So here it is:
Your class has attended a panel discussion on what methods governments should use to discourage the use of private cars in the centre of the city. You have made the notes below.
Methods governments could use to discourage the use of private cars in the city centre
• investment
• education
• taxes
Some opinions expressed in the discussion
'Make businesses pay parking levies for their employees and they'll move out of the city centre.'
'Improve the public transport system, then people won't need their cars.'
'If people understood how much better pedestrianised city centres are, they wouldn't want to bring their cars in.' Write an essay for your tutor, discussing two of the methods in your notes. You should explain which method you think is more important for governments to consider, giving reasons to support your opinion.You may, if you wish, make use of the opinions expressed in the discussion but you should use your own words as far as possible. Write your essay in 220-260 words in an appropriate style.
Insofar people have the necessity to move in and out the city, in a twenty - year period of time, the number of vehicles circulating in the city – which run on polluting fuels – have risen tremendously. Therefore, the Government has been evaluating some actions to take – introducing new taxes or making a long-term investment on public transportation - to reduce and constraint this phenomenon, thing which not only would change people approach to ordinary things such as going to work or running errands, but it would also be beneficial for the environment – thing of which ecologists would be happy of.
Generally speaking, introducing new taxes is not something people see favourably, and riots and fencings over the subject are bound to occur. Nevertheless, the Government is assessing the implementation of parking fees, as well as pricing fuels up in such a way as to discourage their depletion, and consequently, to have less cars into the city center. More specifically, since, according to a research, 50% of daily ‘travellers’ currently live out of the city, there not being a reliable and valuable alternative to private means of transportation, nobody would concur with the car fuels pricing strategy.
A long-term investment on public transportation – such as platforms and ferries – is another option the government is taking into account. Costs involved are estimated to be about 12 million pounds, and presumably a five-year work schedule is required to have the job done. Despite these setbacks, the concept does look to be the most apt for the goal. Moreover, an in-depth analysis demonstrates how profitable this ‘blueprint’ may be.
Overall, even though either option seems suitable, the latter seems to have a more potentially significant impact on traffic reduction. Furthermore, should the project be approved officially, it would be financed with public – and private – funds, which would immediately eventuate in expenses reduction for drivers and future earnings for the investors.

Anyway, I'm studying British English
