短文理解l
Passage l
I never used to go anywhere
without the car．I regarded it as an essential part
of myself．But when
the price of gas doubled in
this year，I decided not to use the car except when
absolutely necessary．
For example，I always
used to take the car when l went to fetch the
papers on Sunday
mornings．although our
newsagent’s is only lo minutes’walk away．Now I go
on foot．
I tell myself that l’m not only
saving the gas but keeping fit at the same
time．It’s aII a question
of habit really．I’m
sure you can get used to anything if you try and
already feel that I rely on
the car less than
I used t0．
Besides。now that we live in the
suburbs，I can walk down the road and catch a bus
to the office
or to any part of the town．We
used to live in the country about l5 miles from
town and then l would
frequently drive to and
fro twice in one day．That meant l would use
159allons of oil or more in
a week．Now I only
need half that amount．
The trouble is that I
am also getting used to the gas prices．They don’t
seem so high tome any
more．Perhaps it is
easier to get used to expensive gas than it is to
doing without the car．

relying too much on the car

come back from town twice a day by car
C．usually buys l59allons of oil or more in fl
week
