used in a European city in three decades: 1960, 1980 and 2000.


Overall, with the increased used of cars, people’s habit of using bikes and walking
on foots had decreased significantly over the time.
To begin with, in the year 1960, lots of people used to move either on foot or
using a bike which were 35% and about 25% consecutively compared to only
about 7% private cars and 18% buses. After 20 years in 1980, the number of car
and bus users grew up more than 3 times over 20 years and in the same year
people travelling in foot fell down to less than half as it was in 1960 amounting
only 18% of the total travelers.
Finally in 2000, only 10% of walk-goers walked, only about 6% people rode a
bicycle compared to 16% bus users and about 37% private car users. In 1960,
majority of the people travelled on foot or using a bike but it became
completely different after 40 years when most of the people used cars or
buses.

history on the Internet. For instance, when students have to do research or an
assignment about historical event, they could find some famous and reliable
websites introduced by their teachers, therefore, they will be curious about the
problem because they have just found it and are interested in exploring it. Thanks
to this, these sites would become more popular among the young these days,
which later has a greater influence on the next generations. Another method for
this problem is that schools should organize historical field trips such as museums
or ancient landmarks that spark an interest in learning. To illustrate, Students
then should be encouraged to find interesting information themselves as to some
past figures and places by watching some documentary films on YouTube.
Especially, this type of outdoor activities certainly brings about positive
impressions than just boring theories in class.
