Library, police and public transportation are indispensable parts of a city. And it is the government’s responsibility to invest on these three fields to keep the city running healthily.

necessary in keep the city safe and stable. We can learn from history that financial crisis always comes along with riots and turmoil. Confronted with unemployment, bankruptcy and decline in living standards, people are likely to swarm into the street to challenge the government.

让步段：当然，图书馆也是很重要，可以在经济危机时期给人充电学习的 场所，但是政府对其投资行为可以暂停，因为读书充电完全可以由个人完 成。（承认主观点不足之处+堵漏）

Admittedly, library is also essential to help government survive the tough period, because it can provide people with a place to stay away from the hustle and bustle and regain the passion towards life by reading. However, in a special period of time such as economical crisis, I believe the public can totally understand the cut-­‐down on expenditure of library, since the police and the public transportation are more important. Besides, the reading and thinking can be done individually at home. （82 字）

结尾：重申观点，归纳理由/升华主题

From what has been discussed above, we can safely draw a conclusion that among library, police and public transportation, the library can be invested the least when the government comes across financial difficulty. After all, in economic recession, what people need the most are social stability and the quick comeback in economy. （52 字）
