英語(yǔ)聽(tīng)力：告訴你一生必知的事01：愛(ài)車(chē)一族的福音

Since the very first modern car was invented by Karl Benz, cars have become more and more popular and sought after by many people. For young guys, buying a new car is exciting since a car represents a certain level of independence ( 獨(dú)立). With a car of your own, you don't have to rely on your parents, friends or even buses for transportation. Owning a car you have to pay a lot of money in parking , maintenance ( 保養(yǎng)), petrol, tax and insurance, which will cost you a lot. However, compared with buying a house, buying a car is less expensive. Different from the "fixed" assets such as house, car is a kind of "current" asset, and it can enlarge your activity space and take you to wherever you like.

自從卡爾·本茨發(fā)明了第一輛現(xiàn)代汽車(chē)之后，車(chē)變得越來(lái)越普遍，成為人們競(jìng)相追逐的對(duì)象。對(duì)于年輕人而言，買(mǎi)車(chē)是一件讓人興奮的事情，因?yàn)閾碛凶约旱能?chē)便等同于擁有一定程度的獨(dú)立性，從此無(wú)需在交通方面依賴父母、朋友或者是公交車(chē)。雖然將各種停車(chē)費(fèi)、維修保養(yǎng)費(fèi)、油、稅、保險(xiǎn)費(fèi)等全部算下來(lái)，養(yǎng)車(chē)需要花費(fèi)一筆不小的開(kāi)銷(xiāo)，然而與買(mǎi)房子相比，買(mǎi)車(chē)要便宜得多。相對(duì)于房子等"固定"資產(chǎn)而言，汽車(chē)是"流動(dòng)"資產(chǎn)，它能最大限度地幫助你擴(kuò)大活動(dòng)范圍，并帶你到你想去的任何地方。
