cars are an essential part of many people’s lives nowadays. since their appearance many things have changed. travelling from one place to another became easier and faster. besides when we go by car, comfort during the trip is guaranteed.
there are many types of cars: small, large, cargo сars, minivans, jeeps. all of them are multifunctional.
first and the most important role of the car is driving to work and back. many people in big cities live in the suburbs but work in the downtown. that’s why every morning and evening people use personal cars. when the road traffic is heavy they can use public transport.
second role of the car is to travel to long distances, for instance, to other cities or countries. there are, of course, other ways of travelling: by bus, by train, by plane. however, only cars let us feel comfortable and free on the way. many people choose cars because of the beautiful view from the window. the only disadvantage of distant travels by car is the price of gasoline. in many countries it’s usually high.
another good reason for having a car is going to large supermarkets. when the family is big and there are several pets, it’s simply vital to buy a lot of food. many families go shopping for food at weekends and cars are very useful on such days.
i should say that cars have brought a lot of problems, such as air pollution and traffic jams. however, they gave people more freedom of movement and comfort. when i grow up, i want to have a car of my own. i hope by that time cars will be electric and less harmful for the environment.
