布景常识
据光亮网报导,美国一般等级的汽油价格比起曩昔两周上升百分之二十二,现已打破美国十年来油价的最高纪录。自俄乌冲突迸发以来,美国一向想要在俄乌冲突中获利,例如将武器卖给乌克兰,从乌克兰赚取许多金钱,或是对俄罗斯进行制裁,阻隔欧洲各国与俄罗斯之间的动力交游,进一步翻开美国与欧洲各国的协作商场。美国的算盘打得叮当响,但战争中没有成功者,任何一个参加战争的国家都将被战争反噬,如今美国正在为他的制裁付出价值,或许欧洲各国付出的价值更大。

在宾夕法尼亚州阿伦敦市郊的利哈伊谷购物中心,托尼·萨巴现已感遭到了油价上涨带来的影响。“价格会涨到阴间,我不能像早年那样走动。我的车在我的车库里。我不能开它,因为我没有钱。”萨巴说,他是一位70岁的退休人员,早年常常开车去商场。他不去任何商铺或饭馆,他只是喜爱坐在舒畅的扶手椅上和他的兄弟谈天。尽管如今他的车不能用了,但他仍是想来商场。但公交车需要的时刻太长,而且太贵。所以他给一个兄弟打电话,让兄弟来接他。

saba’s story,in a nutshell,illustratesthe problem many in america face.owningand operating a car is getting more and more expensive as the oil price rises. the russianinvasionof ukraine – and aresultantban on russian oil – will probably make things worse. but the us’slargelyineffective public transport means americans have little choice but to use their cars. in the majority of the us, americans need their vehicles to work, shop, study and survive.
简而言之,萨巴的故事阐明晰许多美国人面临的疑问。跟着油价的上涨,具有和运用一辆轿车的本钱越来越高。俄罗斯对乌克兰的侵略——以及由此发生的对俄罗斯石油的禁令——可以会使情况变得更糟。但美国的公共交通根柢上是无效的,这意味着美国人除了运用他们的轿车外没有啥选择。在美国大有些区域,美国人需要他们的车辆来作业、购物、学习和生计。
