Subway in Shanghai 2

Shanghai transportations have been changed a lot for 20 years. Especially subways. We almost can go to anywhere in Shanghai by subways . In the past, subway trains were dirty and dark, but now it is clearer and brighter. And there were a lot of vendors walked in trains. They sold everything in the train such as newspapers, maps , drinks and snacks. And so many beggars begged in trains. Actually they are poor and they have no jobs to live, but they should beg in the streets not in the trains.There are not enough spaces in the train for them. On the other hand , when I take subways with my children and they beg to us , I don’t know how should I do. If I give them money, my children must ask me why and copy my action. For me ,it is too hard to explain poor and responsibility to young children , because there are a lot of problems in the world . The beggars also wouldn’t like beg if they can do another jobs
I think they will. Of course, it need to except fake beggars, because they are professionals. I wouldn’t like to give money to fakes with my children, I should give money to people who need real helps.

Subways in Shanghai 2

Shanghai transportation has been changed a lot in/over 20 years, especially subways. We almost can go anywhere in Shanghai by subways. In the past, subway trains were dirty and dark, but now it is cleaner and brighter. There were a lot of vendors who sold anything in the trains such as newspapers, maps, drinks and snacks. Also, many beggars begged in the trains and they still continue to this day but they should beg in the streets not in the trains.

There isn’t enough space in the trains for them. On the other hand/Also, when I take the subway with my children and they beg us for money, I don’t know what I should do. If I give them money, my children might ask me why and copy my action. For me, it is too hard to explain what ‘poor’ and ‘responsibility’ are to young children because there are a lot of problems in the world.

I think beggars don’t really want to beg but they have to because they can’t work except fake beggars, because they are professionals. I don’t like to give money to fake beggars when I’m with my children, I should give money to people who really need help.
