It used to be that if you wanted to travel, you had to plan for a long bus or train ride. But the car changed all that. Though at first it was thought of as too expensive, the car quickly became a necessary thing in America. Between 1908 and 1926, Ford Motor Company sold more than 15 million cars. Almost from the beginning, people liked to use their cars to go on holiday. With so many people taking to the road, the U. S. had to build more and better roads to support(维持) all that traffic (交通). As an easy way to see the country, traveling by car brought about the development of roadside restaurants. People also needed information on interesting places to visit and how to get there, so road maps and travel guides(指南) were developed. Having a car meant families could go to places far from where they lived. If you lived in a warm place, you could go to the mountains to see snow: if you lived in a cold place, you could drive to the seaside for fun in the sun. Cars made it possible to do what was not easy for most people before.

December 25th is Christmas Day. Many Americans are busy with Christmas and the winter holiday season. Buying a Christmas tree is one important part of the holiday. Christmas trees come in all shapes(形状) and sizes. Maybe the most famous is the large Christmas tree near the White House in Washington, D. C. If you believe that Christmas trees come from forests(森林) , you are wrong: most trees are carefully grown on farms. Farmers plant and sell Christmas trees just as they grow fruits or vegetables. About thirty-three million Christmas trees are sold in North America each year. It can take as many as fifteen years to grow a tree as high as two meters, but the growing time is usually seven years. Farmers care for the young trees until they are about three to five years old. Then farmers plant them again in fields. Farmers cut the highest part of the trees when they do not want them to grow too fast. They also cut other parts of the trees while the trees are growing. This gives the trees the shape that people will like.

Sarah Davis lives in Dalton, Australia, and her parents own a sheep farm there. Dalton is a small country town with one hundred people. The nearest city is over one hundred and fifty kilometres away, so Sarah doesn’ t often go there. She likes her life on the farm. She and her brother Jeff go to the school in town. In summer it’ s usually very hot, so the school day starts early at half past seven and finishes at noon. At the moment, their father Jack Davis is working in the woolshed (羊圈). It’ s the sheep-shearing (剪羊毛) season and six men are shearing his sheep. He is putting the good wool(羊毛) and the bad wool in different places. Sarah is taking the good wool to the wool store. The work in the woolshed is hard, but Sarah and Jeff don’t mind because it’ s good fun. Jeff enjoys working with the animals. When he isn’ t helping his father, he reads books about farming. He is going to college next year to study farming. When they finish in the woolshed, Sarah and Jeff are going for a swim in the river. They often go to the river for a swim.
