16．When my dad was a very young man，he was one of the few people in the small community of North Apollo who owned a car．W hen he and Mom got married，they went on their honeymoon in that old Ford，but they had to turn around and pay a visit to the garage because the car didn't have enough power to drive them going forward．
When I was too young to remember，my dad owned a truck by which we all went nutting and berry picking．It was an important day when Daddy decided to buy a family car．It must have been about 1937or 1938when he purchased a 1929Chevrolet sedan．We loved that old car．
On Saturday evenings，after dinner，the whole family would pile into that old square sedan，go up to Whitlinger's grocery store and buy a bag of Hershey's Kisses．Then Daddy would head out toward the country and drive all around the old country roads while we fed ourselves on chocolates．That was the highlight of our week．I didn't know which we enjoyed most，the chocolates or riding in the car．
The first car I owned was a Packard touring car．My cousin Janet and 1were living in Washington D．C．，and mostly rode the streetcars（有轨电车） to wherever we wanted to go．Janet's friend Kathy had learned to drive so the three of us decided to buy a car for ourselves．We picked out this old Packard because it was all we could afford．
Every American living today can tell stories about the cars they have driven．I love to drive．I am most excited when I'm headed to the garage with my car keys in my hand．The car I own now is a 1998Buick Century with a mark where I backed into a tree．

15．I think people everywhere dream about having lots of money．I know I do．I would
like to earn large amounts of money．You can win a large amount of money in the United States through lotteries．People pay money for tickets with numbers．If your combination of numbers is chosen，you will win a huge amount of money一often in the millions．
A few years ago，my friend Al won the lottery．It changed his life．He was not"born with a silver spoon in his mouth"．My friend was always short of money．And the money he did earn was chicken feed．
Sometimes Al had to accept handouts（施舍物）from his friends．But do not get me wrong．My friend was always very careful with the money he spent．In fact，he was often a cheapskate．He didn't like to spend money．The worst times were when he had no single penny left．
One day，Al scraped together a few dollars for a lottery ticket．He thought  he  would  never  gain  lots  of  money  unexpectedly．But  his combination of numbers was chosen and he won the lottery．Al was so excited．The first thing he did was to buy a costly new car一one thing that he normally would not buy．Then he started spending money on unnecessary things．It seemed that he had"money to burn"．
When we got together for a meal at a restaurant，AI paid every time．He would always tell me the money made him feel like a millionaire．But Al spent too much money．Soon he was"down and out"again．He had spent his"bottom dollar"一his very last amount．He did not even save any of the money．
1admit I do feel sorry for my friend．He had enough money to"live like a king"．Instead，he was back to"living on a shoestring"一a very low budget．Some  might  say he was wise about small things，but not about important things．
