（单词翻译）

When I need gas for my car, I pull into a gas station right around the corner from my house and use my gas card. Years ago, full-service gas stations were very common. The gas station attendant1 would put gas in your car, check the oil level in your engine and air pressure in your tires, and wash your windows. However, things have changed. Now, most gas stations are self-service centers where you do all your car maintanance. Personally, I usually fill the car up with gas every time I stop. I generally pay with cash, but more and more gas stations accept credit2 cards, and you can pay at the gas pump outside without going into the station to pay the cashier3 directly4. Now, because gas prices are on the rise, I am thinking about buying a more fuel-efficient vehicle5 or just taking the bus to work.
