36 The Traffic Lights
This is a street crossing. There are traffic lights at each corner. Drivers must watch the lights carefully.
When there is a green light, the cars may go on. When there is a red light, the cars must stop. They must wait until the red light changes to green. Then they can go on. Sometimes, the cars want to make a right turn or a left turn. They can make a right turn when the light is green or red. But they must wait until the green light is shining if they want to turn left.
Some people are color-blind. They cannot see the difference between red and green. These people must not drive, or else there will be accidents. We must keep our streets safe.
这是一个十字路口。每一个街道拐角处都有红绿灯;司机们必须认真看指示灯。
当绿灯亮起时,车辆可以通行。当红灯亮起时,车辆必须停止。他们必须等到红灯变成绿灯才能继续行使。有时车辆想要左转或右转。无论是红灯还是绿灯时,他们都可以右转。但如果他们想要左转,就一定要等到绿灯亮时。
有些人是色盲。他们无法分辨红绿灯。这些人绝对不能开车,否则会发生车祸。我们必须保证道路的安全。
