25、push people into parenthood whether it is what they really want or not.“Its a life-style choice,” Ellen says. “We chose freedom and spontaneity (自发性), privacy (清静 ) and leisure.

32、s. Without a car most people feel that they are poor. And even if a person is poor he doesnt feel really poor when he has a car.Henry Ford was the man who first started making cars in large numbers. He probably didnt know how much the car was going to affect American culture. The car made the United
33、 States a nation on wheels. And it helped make the United States what it is today.There are three main reasons the car became so popular in the United States. First of all the country is a huge one and Americans like to move around in it. The car provides the most comfortable and cheapest form of tr
34、ansportation. With a car people can go any place without spending a lot of money.The second reason cars are popular is the fact that the United States never really developed an efficient and inexpensive form of public transportation.

35、s as they are in other parts of the world. Nowadays there is a good system of air-service provided by planes.

36、 wait for a bus or a train or even a plane. They dont like to have to follow an exact schedule. A car gives them the freedom to schedule their own time. And this is the freedom that Americans want most to have.The gas shortage has caused a big problem for Americans. But the answer will not be a bigg
