點(diǎn)評(píng)：

本文介紹了美國(guó)人尤其是年輕人對(duì)于轎車的厚愛，并列舉了一些事例加以說明。讓人們看到了一個(gè)發(fā)達(dá)國(guó)家的富裕和人民生活的繁榮。

答案簡(jiǎn)析：

1. B. 通過下文的事例不難看出美國(guó)人對(duì)汽車不是一般的喜歡，故用love it, 較貼近文章的意思。

2. D. 按常識(shí)，十四五歲的人應(yīng)稱為年輕人，故應(yīng)說young.

3. B. 根據(jù)下文他們不想通過索要來獲取別人的小轎車，而是想擁有自己的小汽車，故選own.

4. C. 如果說想要索要小汽車的話，那只有先從父母親那兒開始了，故應(yīng)選parents.

5. A. 十四五歲的年輕人大多在上學(xué)，所以工作占用的應(yīng)是上學(xué)期間的空隙，故應(yīng)選free.

6. D. 要想獲得駕照得先學(xué)開車，故應(yīng)選drive.

7. B. 與下文“車子一有問題就去修理”相對(duì)應(yīng)，有些人病了卻從不看醫(yī)生，故應(yīng)選never.

8. A. carry應(yīng)為“搬運(yùn)”，push 為“推”，lift 意思為“舉，提起”都不合文意，take sth. to 某地，意為“把……帶到……”。

9. D. 只能選擇一個(gè)名詞， 表示汽車的“故障，毛病”， 故選problem.

10. C. spend some time doing sth.為一個(gè)固定搭配，意為“花時(shí)間干某事”。
