　　Passage 6

　　University Should Pave Running Trails　The university has about three miles of unpaved dirt running trails that pass through the forest near campus. I think these trails should be paved with cement. One reason for paving the trails would be to increase their safety. When it rains, the dirt turns to mud and becomes very slippery, so the runners who use them can slip and fall. Pavement would solve this problem. Also, paving would make the trails look nicer, which would encourage students to use them. Bumps in the trail would be smoothed out and weeds would be paved over, making the trail more attractive to runners.

　　Sincerely,

　　大学应该铺设跑道

　　大学有大约三英里未铺设路面的土路，穿过校园附近的森林。我认为这些小径应该铺上水泥。铺路的原因之一是为了提高安全性。一到下雨天，泥土就会变成泥浆，变得非常湿滑，跑步的人就会滑倒。铺设路面可以解决这个问题。此外，铺设路面会让小径看起来更漂亮，从而鼓励学生使用小径。小径上的凹凸不平会被磨平，杂草也会被铺平，从而使小径对跑步者更有吸引力。
