Answer

  1. 1) I have to write an essay providing solutions to a problem. I will write it in formal style.; 2) Para 1 - state problem, Para 2 - 1st solution and example, Para 3 - 2nd solution and example, Para 4 - summary of solutions; 3) Heavy traffic is a problem in many city centres around the world. What can we do to solve this problem? / All in all, there are a number of things we can do. If we encourage people to carpool, improve the public transport system and encourage people to cycle at work, then we can reduce traffic in city centres.; 4) reduce the cost of public transport - if it was more economical to take the train then more people would use public transport and therefore there would be fewer cars on the roads; encourage people to carpool - by sharing car journeys there would be fewer cars on the roads; improve the public transport system - by offering more routes and services, public transport would be a better option for more people and they would leave their cars at home; encourage people to cycle into work - cycling is the cleanest form of transport and there would be fewer cars so the air would be cleaner.
  2. Improve public transport - more buses and trams - more people use public transport and leave their cars at home - less traffic on the roads; Carpool - many people share one car - less traffic on the roads; Stop driving into the city centre altogether - cycle into work - people healthier, air cleaner
