  The old Volkswagen Beetle -“The Bug”- is making a comeback. People who own them are planning to keep them forever. People who don't own them are paying high prices when they can find one for sale. It's more remarkable (值得一提的) when you realize that V W doesn't even make them anymore!

  A spokesman for Volkswagen of America says there were about five million “Bugs” on American roads in 1997. That was the last year they were shipped to America. VW calculates that about four million of them are still running… and running… and running.

  Used car businessmen say they can't keep “Bugs” on their lots these days. They feel it's because these cars enjoy a fame of reliable (可靠的), inexpensive transportation. The cars average about 30 miles per gallon of gas.

  But all hasn't been smooth going for the “Bugs”. The heating system is poor. And since it travels very close to the ground, large cars tend to splash (飞溅) it with winter's snow and mud. Some in the safety field I consider the Beetle as defenseless against heavier cars. But the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has nothing that shows any problem with them at all.

[  ]

2.What is the problem with a “Bug”?

[  ]

B.heavier cars

C.some people in the safety field

D.People from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration

4.The Americans ________.
