    问答题
    Practice 6  It’s summer. In the United States, it’s the season of swimming pools, barbeques (户外烤肉), camping and road trips.  Road trip vacations where the car journey is part of the fun are especially popular with college students, who like to explore the country on wheels. These budget trips are ideal for students who often have plenty of free time but little money.  Driving trips first became popular in the 1920s. Newly paved roads and improved cars made it possible to travel longer distances. Motels (汽车旅馆)started appearing outside cities.  By the 1950s, car ownership became the norm. Construction of the US interstate (州际的) highway system began in 1956 and motel and restaurant chains popped up (突然出现) everywhere making long distance trips easier.  Today, the US has the highest car ownership rate in the world. Only 8 percent of American homes have no car, according to the most recent US census. Though many college students don’t own a car, most have access to one.  Hawkins’ most memorable road trip took place over spring break. He and two friends drove from New York to New Orleans to volunteer, helping rebuild the city after Hurricane (风暴) Katrina hit it last July. They crossed the country in two days and slept in their car in church parking lots.  Roberts’ road trip to Canada last winter was even more eventful. Upon arriving in Montreal, they were lost in a blizzard and shivering in the -25° cold. To find their hotel, they turned on a laptop (笔记本电脑) and drove around in circles until they found a spot with wireless Internet coverage.  “I know we should have planned better, but we’re young. Now, when I see those guys I always say: ‘Remember when we were lost in the snow storm!’ I’ll never forget that.”

    【参考译文】
    现在是夏季。在美国,这是一个游泳、烧烤、野营以及公路旅行的季节。
    汽车旅行是公路旅行的乐趣之一。公路旅行在大学生当中特别流行,因为他们喜欢驾车探险。这种开销较小的旅行对于那些时间充足但经费不足的学生来说非常可取。
    驾车旅行开始流行于20世纪20年代。新铺的公路与改善的汽车使驾车长途旅行变得可能。汽车旅馆也开始出现在城市以外的地方。
    至20世纪50年代,拥有汽车变得很正常。长途旅行因为1956年美国开始建设州际高速公路系统和汽车旅馆、餐馆在各处的兴起而变得更加简单。
    现在,美国的汽车持有率世界最高。根据美国最新统计,只有8%的美国家庭没有汽车。虽然许多大学生没有汽车,但是大多数都有汽车使用权。
    霍金斯最难忘的公路旅行发生在春假期间。他和两个伙伴开车从纽约到新奥尔良做志愿者服务,去帮助他们重建去年7月被卡特里娜飓风毁坏的家园。他们在两天之内横穿美国,困了就睡在停在教会停车场的汽车里。
    去年冬天,罗伯茨去加拿大的公路旅行更加多事。快要到达蒙特利尔时,他们在一场暴风雪中迷了路,在零下25℃的严寒里发抖。为了找到旅馆,他们打开电脑不停地开车转圈,直到找到了一个无线网络覆盖的地方。
    “我知道我们应该准备得更充分一些。但是我们太年轻了。当我看到那些朋友时,我总是说:‘记住我们在暴风雪中走失的时候!’我永远也不会忘记。”
