W: Are you still having trouble with your car?
M: Yes! It’s been in the repair shop three times this month. I should get a new car, instead of a secondhand one. But I can’t afford to buy a new one.
W: New cars cost a fortune these days. My brother-in-law just paid $15,000 for his new one. That’s almost half as much as they paid for their house ten years ago.
M: But what can you do without a car? We can’t get along without them.
W; We all depend too much on our cars. I drive my husband to the train and drive the children to school. Then I drive to the store for food and drive the kids home from school. After that it’s time to drive to the railroad station again.
M: Remember when drive-in movies were new? Now lots of people watch movies from their cars.
W: And now there are drive-in banks where you can cash a check without going into the bank. In some places there are drive-in libraries, churches, and post offices.
M: I’ve even read about a wedding that was performed in a car.
W: Where was that?
M: There was an article about it in last night’s newspaper. There’s a town in Florida where you can get married without getting out of your car. I remember the name of the town—Lovelady, Florida.
W: Do you mean that the minister marries the couple in their automobile?
M: No. There’s no minister. They aren’t church marriages. The justice of the peace gets into the car to perform the ceremony.
W: In spite of all these modern conveniences, people still feel tired at the end of the day.
M; People don’t get any exercise. They have stopped going to tennis courts or baseball fields. That’ s why they get fat.
W; So then they buy expensive machines to give them exercises at home.
M: It really doesn’t make sense.
