Americans' Vans―Motor Homes

Americans with small families own a small car or a large one. If both parents are working, they usually have two cars. When the family is large, one of the cars is sold and they will buy a van(住房汽车) .

A small car can hold(容纳) four persons and a large car can hold six persons but it is very crowded. A van holds seven persons easily, so a family with three children can ask their grandparents to travel together.

Mr King and his wife had a third child last year. This made them sell a second car and buy a van. There are seven seats in the van,two of them are used to put things on,for a family of five must carry many suitcases(手提箱) when they travel. When they arrive at their grandparents' home,the suitcases are put into the two seats. And then they can carry their grandparents.

Americans call vans motor homes. A motor home is always used for holidays. When a family are travelling to the mountains or to the seaside, they can live in their motor home for a few days or weeks. All the members of a big family can enjoy a happier life when they are travelling together. That is why motor homes have become very popular. In America there are many parks for motor homes.
