AMERICANS love to drive. They have drive-in movie theaters,drive-through restaurants and
driving vacations. It's often called the Great American Road Trip ":your whole family gets into a van
(货车) or recreational vehicle (RV, 旅行房车), and hits the road for a summer trip across the country.
American cars are always big, but Rvs are the biggest. These are houses on wheels. RVs have
kitchens,bathrooms and bedrooms. All across the country you can find RV parks-places to park your
RV and spend the night. And, if you can't find one,you can always make your home in a grocery store
(杂货店) parking lot.
As big as RVs are , they still seem very small to a family who has to spend every hour of everyday
together. With your little brother kicking you in the face all night in your tiny bed under the table, the
dog barking and Mom playing her country music on the radio , your family is not at its best. What's
worse , RVs are always breaking down. So expect to spend a lot of time watching dad under the RV
on the side of a dusty road.
But RV travel can be a great time with the family, too. You can see the country in your own
comfortable "home". You can spend every night in different places , or just stay where you are. You
don't have to pay for hotels or restaurants, only gas. But, best of all, you are free to go wherever you
want whenever you want in your home away from home.
