Most Americans find it hard to think what life would be like without a car.However, some have realized the serious problem of air pollution by cars.The polluted air is poisonous(有毒的)and dangerous to health.
One way to get rid of(排除)the polluted air is to build a new kind of car.That's what several of the large car factories are trying to do.But progress in this field has been slow.

I’ll never forget that summer day in 1965 when my mother suddenly died of an unexplained illness at the age of 36. Later that afternoon, a police officer stopped by to ask my father if the hospital could use Mother’s corneas(角膜). I was shocked. “The doctors want to dissect Mum and give her away to other people!” I thought as I ran into the house in tears.
“How can you let them do that to her?” I screamed at my father. “My mum came into this world in one piece and that is how she should go out.”
“Linda,” Father said quietly, putting his arm around me, “the greatest gift you can give is a part of yourself. Your mother and I decided long ago that if we can make a difference in just one person’s life after we die, our death will have meaning.” He went on to explain they had both decided to donate their organs(器官).
The lesson my father taught me that day became one of the most important in my life.
Years passed. I married and had a family of my own. In 1980, my father became seriously ill and moved in with us. He cheerfully told me that when he died, he wanted me to donate his eyes. “Sight is one of the greatest gifts a person can give,” he said.
I told Wendy what her grandpa had said, and with tears in her eyes, she went into her grandpa’s room and gave him a big hug. She was only fourteen years old------the same age at which I was introduced to such a thing. What a difference!
My father died on April 11,1986, and we donated his eyes as he had wanted. Three days later, Wendy said, “Mum, I’m so proud of you for what did for Grandpa.”
At that moment, I realized that my father gave much more than his eyes.
