Grandparents Answer a Call

As a third-generation native of Brownsville, Texas, Mildred Garza never planned to move away. Even when her daughter and son asked her to move to San Antonio to help with their children, she politely refused. Only after a year of friendly discussion did Ms. Garza finally say yes. That was four years ago. Today all three generations regard the move as a success, giving them a closer relationship than they would have had in separate cities.

No statistics show the number of grandparents like Garza who are moving closer to adult children and grandchildren. Yet there is evidence suggesting that the trend is growing. Even President Obama’s mother-in-law, Marian Robinson, has agreed to leave Chicago and move into the White House to help care for her granddaughters. According to a study by grandparents. Com, 83 percent of the people said Mrs. Robinson ’s decision will influence grandparents in the American family. Two-thirds believe more families will follow the example of Obama’s family.

“In the 1960s we were all a little wild and couldn’t get away from home far enough for fast enough to prove we could do it on our own,”says Christine Crosby, publisher of Grand , a magazine for grandparents.“We now realize how important family is and how important it is”to be near them, especially when you’re raising children.”

Moving is not for everyone. Almost every grandparent wants to be with his or her grandchildren and is willing to make sacrifices, but sometimes it is wiser to say no and visit frequently instead. Having your grandchildren far away is hard, especially knowing your adult child is struggling, but giving up the life you know may be harder.

1. Why was Garza’s move a success?

A.It strengthened her family ties.

B.It improved her living conditions.

C.It enabled her to make more friends.

D.It helped her know more new places.

2. What was the reaction of the public to Mrs. Robinson’s decision?

A.17% expressed their support for it.

B.Few people responded sympathetically.

C.83% believed it had a bad influence.

D.The majority thought it was a trend.

3. What did Crosby say about people in the 1960s?

A.They were unsure of themselves.

B.They were eager to raise more children.

C.They wanted to live away from their parents.

D.They had little respect for their grandparents.

4. What does the author suggest the grandparents do in the last paragraph?

A. Make decisions in the best interests of their own.

B. Ask their children to pay more visits to them.

C. Sacrifice for their struggling children .

D. Get to know themselves better.

科目:高中英语 来源:2015-2016学年]福建莆田六中高一下期末考试英语试卷(解析版) 题型:阅读理解

It is natural that young people are often uncomfortable when they are with their parents. They say that their parents don’t understand them. They often think that their parents are out of touch with modern ways, that they are too serious and too strict with their children, and that they seldom give their children a free hand.

It is true that parents often find it difficult to win their children’s trust and they tend(倾向) to forget how they themselves felt when young.

For example, young people like to act on the spot without much thinking. It is one of their ways to show that they have grown up and they can face any difficult situation. Old people worry more easily. Most of them plan things in advance, at least in the back of their minds, and do not like their plans to be upset by something unexpected.

When you want your parents to let you do something, you will have better success if you ask before you really start doing it.

Young people often make their parents angry with their choices in clothes, in entertainment and in music. But they do not mean to cause any trouble; it is just that they feel cut off from the older people’s world, into which they have not yet been accepted. That’s why young people want to make a new culture of their own, and if their parents don’t like their music or entertainment or clothes or their way of speech, this will make the young people extremely happy.

Sometimes you are so proud of yourself that you do not want your parents to say “yes” to what you do. All you want is to be left alone and do what you like. It is natural enough, after being a child for so many years, when you were completely under your parents’ control.

If you prefer to control your life, you’d better win your parents over and try to get them to understand you. If your parents see that you have a high sense of responsibility, they will certainly give you the right to do what you want to do.

1.According to the text, young people prefer to __________.

A. ask for advice before they really start to do anything

B. think in the same way as their parents do

C. be very strict with themselves

D. do things without thinking carefully ahead

2.Why do young people like to have clothes, entertainment and music in their way?

A. Because they want to try on something new and look different from the older.

B. Because they try to get their parents to be proud of them.

C. Because they want to give their parents a big surprise.

D. Because they want to test whether they are cleverer than old people.

3.According to the text, young people want to make a new culture of their own, because _________.

A. they feel they are cleverer than old people

B. they do not want to get into trouble with their parents

C. they don’t feel they belong to the world of the old people

D. they want to show the new is better than the old

4.If a young man intends to control his own life, it’s better for him to __________.

A. do everything according to his own wish

B. hold himself responsible for everything he does

C. do everything beyond his parents’ control

D. do everything the way his parents do
