Question 1 (10 points) 1 Gas stations still provide gas, but often they no longer provide service. 2 For one thing, attendants at many stations no
longer pump gas. 3 Motorists pull up to a combination of convenience store and gas islands where the attendants, with
clean hands, are comfortably enclosed in a glass booth with an opening for taking money. 4 Drivers must get out of their
cars to pay for and pump their own gas, which has the bonus of perfuming their hands and clothes with the hint of gas. 5
In addition, even at stations with "pump jockeys." workers have completely forgotten other services that once went hand

attendants to wash their windshields. 8 And the last attendant who checked tire pressure must have died at least ten years
ago. 9 Finally, many gas stations no longer have mechanics on the premises. 10 Limping down the highway in a backfiring
car for emergency help at the friendly service station is a thing of the past. What is the main idea?
