Everybody knows parking is always difficult in Beijing.

I was troubled with this after we have just moved to a house in Zhongguan village in Beijing. Nothing could have been more annoying.

Our house is at the side of a street, There are a few parking place. I have no choice but to park my car between a olid W.C. and a dirty garbage can. When someone rushed towards the W.C. and touched my car accidentally, its alarm screamed in a shrill noise, again and again.

Usually I do not drive out, because it is a big trouble of finding another parking place . So, if I go out, I will take bus, or take subway, or take taxi.

Imagine my dismay when I walked on the street.

众所周知,北京停车难。

自从我们搬到北京中关村后,这问题就一直困扰着我,没比这更烦人的了。

我们租的房子临街,楼下几乎没有几个停车位。我只好把车停在一个臭气熏天的厕所和脏兮兮的垃圾筒之间。当有被尿憋急了的人冲进厕所而无意中碰到我的车时,警报器就开始嚣叫了,一次又一次。

通常情况下,我轻易不开车出去,因为一旦车位被别人占去,那我再想找另外的车位停就很难了。所以,我出门都是坐公车、坐地铁或者打出租。

有车不敢开,每天用走的,真让人沮丧。
