There are still many families without cars, but some families have two or more. However, cars are used for more than pleasure. They are a necessary part of life.Cars are used for business. They are driven to offices and factories by workers who have no other way to get to their jobs. When salesmen are sent to different parts of the city, they have to drive in order to carry their products. Farmers have to drive into the city in order to get supplies.Sometimes small children must be driven to school. In some cities school buses are used only when children live more than a mile away from the school. When the children are too young to walk too far, their mothers take turns driving them to school. One mother drives on Mondays taking her own children and the neighbors' as well. Another mother drives on Tuesdays, another on Wednesday, and so on. This is called forming a car pool. Men also form car pools, with three or four men taking turns driving to the place where they all work.More car pools should be formed in order to put fewer cars on the road and use less gas.

Roller Skating CWhether you are planning on camping in the backcountry for a week or simply driving along the parks’ many scenic roads, we’ve pulled together a few key tips to help you get the most from your national park vacation.   When to go   Most national parks see their peak crowds in the summertime, when kids are out of school and the weather and scenery are at their best. Campgrounds, lodges and hotels fill up quickly during peak travel times, and the main roads running through the parks often get blocked with cars and RV’s. You’ll often have a better experience if you visit in spring or fall, when most parks are less crowded.   Planning your trip   Your first stop should be the Websites of the National Park Service or Parks Canada, both of which provide up-to-date information about each park within their  jurisdiction(权限). These sites offer maps, trail reports, road closure information, operating hours, activity listings, fee information and much more .   Park passes   If you’re planning on visiting several parks over the next year, you may want to consider purchasing a park pass. At $80 a year, the pass is more expensive than its $15 predecessor (original pass), but it includes admission not only to any national park or monument but also to any sites managed by for other government agencies. Children under 16 are admitted free.    Staying safe in the parks   It may seem clear that wild Animal seldom attacks visitors in national parks, but they do happen. Before you arrive in the park, be sure to thoroughly research what types of wildlife you might see and learn what to do if you find yourself in danger. Do not feed the animals, get close to them or try to pose for photographs with them.66. Most national parks are usually crowded in ___________.   A. spring     B. summer    C. autumn   D. winter67. If you want to learn more information about the national parks you’d better ___.   A. make a call to the National Park Service    B. get in touch with Parks Canada   C. visit the Websites of the parks    D. go out to buy a map of the parks68.
