The United States is full of automobiles (机动车). There are still many families without cars. But some families have two or     more cars. However, cars are used for more than pleasure. They are a     part of life.

Cars are used for      . They are driven to offices and factories by workers who have no other way to       their jobs. When salesmen are sent to       parts of the city, they have to drive in order to       their products. Farmers have to drive into the city in order to shop for necessities.

Sometimes, small children must be driven to      . In some cities, school buses are used only when children        more than a mile from the school. When the children are too      to walk that far, their parents take       driving them to school. One        drives on Mondays, taking her children and the neighbors' children as well. Another mother drives on Tuesdays, another on Wednesdays and so on. This is        forming a car pool (拼车). Working people also form car pools, with three or four people taking turns driving to the place     they work.

More car pools should be formed in order to put       cars on the road and to use less oil.       is a great problem, and so is the traffic in and around cities. Too many cars are being driven. Something should be done about the use of cars.
