The Auto Show, which is being held right now in Beijing, has risen to the top ranks of global auto industry events, as China has become the world's biggest auto market.For many Chinese youngsters, having a car has become a new lifestyle reflecting freedom and success
First, there is the thrill of individual mobility and freedom, going from one place to another in their own time, and on their own terms.
"I like the speed; I like the freedom; I can't imagine not having a car," Hou Mingxin, 39, owner of two cars, told the Financial Times.
And these youngsters don't just want freedom through car ownership, but also a larger social circle.Thanks to the Internet, car owners can band together for leisure activities, such as going strawberry picking in the countryside.It is an activity that many car lovers would never have attempted without the benefits of a car.
In China, the car is also a status symbol."It's an opportunity to declare personal success," said Michael Dunne, a Shanghai-based managing director of J.D.Power and Associates, an auto industry group."The small, environmentally-friendly models are not best sellers in China.The Chinese are crazy about big cars, a symbol of achievement," said Dunne.
Thanks to a growing middle-class, and an increasingly developed network of roads, the number of car owners in China is rapidly increasing. China last year replaced the US and became the world's largest car market with 13.6 million vehicles sold.
But the car craze(狂热) has raised environmental and traffic concerns. Many worry that car emissions could take pollution to a new level. Heavy traffic also troubles many Chinese cities.
China is discovering the romance of the road just as developed countries seem to have lost it. “The younger generation in mature markets is unwilling to buy cars, especially in Europe and Japan," says Klaus Paur, of TNS Auto in Shanghai.
In developed countries, owning a car can be expensive, with the parking fees car insurance and various taxes, said a 2008 article in US magazine Newsweek.
"Having a car is so 20th century," Kimiyuki Suda, a young white collar worker from Tokyo told Newsweek.He mostly uses subways and trains."It's not inconvenient at all."

Scientists have found “significant” amounts of water in a crater (火山口) at the moon’s south pole, a major 31 (discover) that will dramatically revise the description of the moon 32a dead world and likely make it a more attractive destination for future human space missions.
“The moon is alive,” declared Anthony Colaprete, the chief scientist for the Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite mission, 31 used a rocket on Oct. 9 to punch a hole about 100 feet across in the moon’s surface, and then measured about 25 gallons of water in the form of vapor and ice. 31that’s not enough to swim in, it could indicate sufficient water in permanently shaded craters at the poles for future astronauts to live off the land.
NASA’s plans, currently under review by the Obama administration, call for 31 return to the moon at the end of the next decade, and 31(construct) of a lunar base in which astronauts could live and work for months at a time.
The presence of large quantities of water would make that plan more 31 (practice), since water could be used for drinking, breathing and even making rocket fuel. 31, a resource-rich moon could also serve as the perfect low-gravity launch-pad (发射台) for missions that would carry astronauts and 31 families elsewhere in the solar system, 31(realize) the dreams of generations of science-fiction writers.

It was a very cold evening, an old man was waiting for a ride across the river. He saw several horsemen pass by but he didn’t ask for any help. The wait seemed 31 (end). Then came another rider, the old man 32 (catch) his eye and said, “Sir, would you mind doing me a favor?”
Stopping his horse, he replied, “Of course.” Almost 33 (freeze), the old man could not get 34 the ground. The horseman helped him onto his horse. He took the o1d man not just across the river, 35 to his home.
“Sir, you didn’t even ask the other riders for help, why? What 36 I had said ‘no’ and 1eft you there?” the horseman asked.
The old man looked at him straight in the eyes and said, “I looked into their eyes, I found they didn’t care, 37 told me it would be useless, but when I looked into 38 , I saw kindness.”
These words touched the rider deeply. “Thank you for 39 you’ve said, I hope I will never be too busy to help others.” With that, Thomas Jefferson, the 40 (three) president of the US, turned his horse around and went away.
