Shanghai-More Shanghai people are renting cars to travel over the coming National Day holiday, Tom reported today.

Most cars in large local car-rental companies such as Yongda, Anji and Dazhong are leased so far with the Buick Sport Utility Vehichle (SUV) in high demand.

Santana and Jetta were previously the most popular car models rented by Shanghai people for travel, while the high-end Buick models have generated great interest among locals renting cars these years. However, the rent on a Buick GL or GS model is between 650 yuan and 750 yuan a day, nearly double those of the Santana and Jetta cars.

Compared with Santana, Buick looks better, has greater capabilities and is safer and more comfortable, said a car leaser. “I don’t mind paying a higher cost for a Buick to enjoy the holiday,” he said.

SUV cars are very popular in the car renting market, according to some car rental firms.

“All the 31 Buick GL8SUV cars were leased out several days ago,” said an employee with the Shanghai Yongda Car Rental Co.

local people are more inclined (傾向于) to go travel with groups of friends, so SUV cars are a better choice, said an industry analyst (分析家). Moreover, SUV car are safer on rugged and rough roads, the analyst said.

According to the data, most people rented cars for seven days; a less number rented them for two or three days.

2.詞義理解題。從第二段SUV 前面的Most cars in large local car-rental companies…in high demand 以及第三、四段，可以知道SUV 是一種車的名字。

3. 數(shù)字計(jì)算題。從However, the rent on a Buick GL or GS model is between 650 yuan and 750 yuan a day, nearly double those of the Santana and Jetta cars. 我們可以知道，租GL 或GS 的費(fèi)用是每天650元到750元，這個(gè)數(shù)字是租Santana 和Jetta 的兩倍，因此得出答案B。

4. 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從Compared with Santana, Buick looks better, has greater capabilities and is safer and more comfortable… 可以得出答案B。
