    A kind of little cars may some day take the place of today's cars. If everyone drives such cars in the future, there will be less pollution. There will also be more space for parking cars in cities, and the streets will be less crowded. Three such cars can fit in the space now needed for one car of the usual size.

    The little cars will cost much less to own and to drive. Driving will be safer too, as these little cars can go only 65 kilometres an hour.

pack rat① named Poncho had a big storeroom for all his things. Every day, Poncho went outside. He came back with leaves for lunch, seeds for supper and other things to f{#blank#}1{#/blank#} his storeroom. 

One day, as Poncho was walking, he saw a shiny golden spoon. He picked up the spoon and took it home. 

"Oh no," said Poncho, looking around his storeroom. "There's no s{#blank#}2{#/blank#} for my spoon. I'll have to move things around to find a place for it." But he failed. 

"I'll sort my things into two piles," Poncho said to himself. "I'll make a pile of things I want to s{#blank#}3{#/blank#} and a pile of things to throw away." When Poncho finished sorting, he didn't have two piles. He had one pile. He wanted everything. He was sad because his plan had not worked. 

Then an idea came to Poncho's mind. "I know how I'll make room for my spoon! My birthday is coming soon. I can have an amazing party."

Poncho made an i{#blank#}4{#/blank#}.

Come to my special birthday. I'll have a giving-away party. Don't bring me a present. I'll give each of you one instead. After the party, you can take anything e{#blank#}5{#/blank#} the shiny golden spoon outside my door. 

Poncho's friends all came to his party on the birthday. They ate birthday berries and sang the birthday song. Then Poncho said, "It's time for my dear friends to pick presents."

The party turned w{#blank#}6{#/blank#}. The guests shouted happily, chose what they like and showed appreciation to Poncho. And he waved goodbye to all his friends. 

"Now I will bring in my shiny spoon," Poncho said happily. He went out and took the spoon inside. He stood in the center of the storeroom and looked around, "Tomorrow I will go out and get a few m{#blank#}7{#/blank#} things. After all, why have a storeroom if you don't store things in it?"
