Usually there are shops/stores or houses along both sides of a street which facilitates public interaction.
通常有商店或房子沿著(zhe)街道兩旁 ，方便人們活動(dòng)。

According to the OECD, a road is a line of communication (travelled way) using a stabilized base other than rails or air strips open to public traffic, primarily for the use of road motor vehicles running on their own wheels
根據經濟合作與發展組織的說法 ，road是一種使用基本陸地的公共交通線路 ，而不是鐵道或空中，主要是供那些用輪子行駛的公路機動(dòng)車(chē)輛使用。
Traditionally a road was a way to travel between two points, usually other towns or distant places. Over time, a road that once connected two towns or villages that were close to each other is still called a road even though now those two towns or villages became part of the same larger city. That is why roads are normally long and important routes in a city.
傳統上 ，road是聯系兩點之間的交通方式 ，通常是跟其他城鎮或遠距離的地方。随著(zhe)時間的推移，曾經連接兩個相鄰的城鎮或村莊的道路現在仍然被稱爲road，盡管現在這兩個城鎮或村莊已經成爲同一個更大的城市的一部分。這就是爲什麽road通常是城市中又長(zhǎng)又重要的路線。
例：
The farm is two miles south of the main road.
農場(chǎng)在主路以南兩英裏處(chù)。
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I - I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference.
一片樹林裏(lǐ)分出兩條路，而我——我選擇瞭(le)人迹更少的那條路，這使一切都不同瞭(le)。
Nowadays you may hear people informally use the word road as a synonym of street. This is fine and people will understand what you are talking about if you use either of the words.
現在你可能會聽到人們非正式地用road作爲street的同義詞(cí)。這都是可以的，随便你用這兩個(gè)詞(cí)中的哪一個(gè)，人們都會明白你在說什麽。
A street however normally has shopsstores or houses along both sides of it which facilitates public interaction. A road may also have buildings on either side though its main function is as a transportation route, a way of getting from one place to another, especially between towns. Outside of the city they are called roads.
street通常在兩旁有商店或房子，方便人們活動。雖然road的主要功能是作爲從(cóng)一個地方到另一個地方的交通路線，特别是城鎮之間，但有時候它的兩邊(biān)也可能有建築物。城外的路叫“road”。
When a street (or road) is being repaired, it is called road works, not street works.
當(dāng)道路被修複時，它被稱(chēng)爲road works，而不是street works。
例 ：
Make sure you look both ways when you cross the street. (Here you could also use road instead of street)
過(guò)馬路時一定要向兩邊(biān)看。(這裏你也可以用road代替street)
I think I will be late to work because of all the road works on the way.
我想我上班要遲到瞭，因爲路上有很多地方修路。
