Cars are an important part of life in the United States. Without a car most of people feel that they are poor. And even if a person is poor he doesn’t feel really poor when he has a car.
Henry Ford was the man who first started making cars in large numbers. He probably didn’t know how much the car was going to affect American culture. The ear made the United States a nation on wheels. And it helped make the United States what it is today.
There are three main reasons why the car became so popular in the United States. First of all the country is a huge one and Americans like to move around in it. The car provides the most comfortable and cheapest form of the transportation.
The second reason is the fact that the United States never really developed an efficient and inexpensive form of public transportation. Long-distance trains have never been as common in the United States as they are in other parts of the world.
The third reason is the most important one, though. The American spirit of independence is what really made cars popular. Americans don’t like to wait for a bus, or a train or even a plane. They don’t like to follow an exact schedule. A car gives them the freedom to schedule their own time. And this is the freedom that Americans want most to have.
选项
A、The car exerts great influence on American culture.
B、Public transportation in the U.S. is highly efficient.
C、Americans enjoy following a certain schedule.

推理判断题。短文第二段中提到:Henry Ford... didn’t know how much the car was going to affect American culture.(亨利·福特并不知道汽车对美国文化产生了多大的影响。)后面又提到:The car made the United States a nation on wheels.(汽车使美国成为车轮卜的国家。)由此可以得出,汽车对美国文化影响巨大。
