  Americans love cars. They go everywhere in them. Eighty-five percent of people in U. S. A. go to and from work by car. And most adults have driving licenses. Why does this car culture exist?

  How It Started

  America's love of cars started after the war(战争)when soldiers returned home from World War II to rebuild their lives. They borrowed money from the government to buy houses and cars which became the symbols of status(地位).The more money they had,the bigger their cars were.

  Making of Roads

  During the war,President Eisenhower noticed what good roads Germany had. He decided to build new four-lane(四车道)roads in America. He said if something happened suddenly,the two-lane roads wouldn't be able to carry all the cars that would suddenly leave the cities. Car and oil companies liked his idea and the building started.

  Car Lovers

  Not just teenagers are crazy about cars. Some Americans love their cars so much that they paint their cars beautifully ！ These are called " art cars". Every April ， there is an activity in Houston,Texas,where they show their cars.

  Pollution

  Cars have polluted the environment. American President Bush refused a worldwide law that is against pollution. Many countries were angry about it. Bush said he had to think of the American economy(经济)and all the American people that make money from cars. Factories say they want to make cars that pollute less.

  New rules and behavior standards for middle school students came out in March. Middle schools are going to use a new way to decide who the top students are. The best students will not only have high marks(分数).they will also be kids who don't dye their hair,smoke or drink. The following are some of the new rules.

  Tell the truth. Have you ever copied someone else's work in an exam? Don't do it again！ That's not something an honest(诚实的)student should do. If you have played computer games for two hours in your room,don't tell your parents you have been doing your homework.

  Participate in more school activities. Good students are kind to other people and love animals. April is Loving Bird Month in China. Is your school doing anything to celebrate? You should join ！ The fire burns high when everybody adds wood to it. You can learn more about animals and how to protect them.

Have you ever quarreled with your teammates when your basketball team lost? Only working together can make your team stronger. Be tolerant and generous to others ， but strict with yourself.

  Be open to new ideas. Have you ever thought that people could live on the moon? Maybe you'll discover Earth H some day. Don't laugh at new ideas. Everyone's ideas are important. You should welcome them,because new ideas make life better for everyone.

  Protect yourself. Has anyone ever taken money from your classmates? Don't let it happen to you. If you have to go home late,you should take care of yourself and let your parents know.

  Use the Internet carefully. The Internet can be very useful for your studies. But some things on the Internet are not suitable for kids. So only keep to web pages that are good for you. You can use the web for fun or homework,but do find some good websites for children first. Here are some for you: http: // kids,eastday. com;http： // www. chinakids. net. com.

  "OK，" said the girl. "Let me try."
