⑺There are several reasons for the decline。 ⑻First， a new traffic law was made and came into force。 ⑼It provided that in summer every car must be air-conditioned。 ⑽As a result， the highest rate in August， when humidity and high temperature make drivers impatient and easily lead to car accidents， dropped steadily。 ⑾Second， new roads were built and some narrow streets were widened， which quickened the flow of traffic。 ⑿Finally， the city administration made great efforts to heighten people’s awareness of observing traffic rules。⑺主題句⑻原因/措施一⑼解釋措施一/次要輔助⑽采取措施一后的結(jié)果⑾原因/措施二⑿原因/措施三

⒀With all these new measures， I’m sure the rate of car accidents in Walton city will go on falling this year。⒀總結(jié)：展望未來的情況
