F. Gale Connor of Lutherville, Maryland, proved this when he had to take his fourmonthold car to the service department of the car dealer for the third time. He told one of his friends，“It was obvious that talking to, reasoning with or shouting at the service manager was not going to lead to a satisfactory solution to my problems.”“I walked over to the showroom and asked to see the agency owner, Mr. White. After a short wait, I went into Mr. Whites office. I introduced myself and explained to him that I had bought my car from his dealership because of the remendations of friends who had had previous dealings with him. I was told that his prices were very petitive and his service was outstanding. He smiled with satisfaction as he listened to me. I then explained the problem I was having with the service department. I thought you might want to be aware of any situation that might tarnish your fine reputation， I added. He thanked me for calling this to his attention and promised me that my problem would be taken care of. Not only did he personally get involved, but he also lent me his car to use while mine was being repaired.”The sun can make you take off your coat more quickly than the wind; and kindliness, the friendly approach and appreciation can make people change their minds more willingly than all the storms in the world.

They believe that cell phones are an important tool in an emergency. Kids can stay connected with their parents at all times, whether its to ask for a ride home from soccer practice or to receive a goodluck text message moments before a big game. Plus, some cell phones designed for kids can be controlled with settings that allow the phone to only be used in parentapproved ways. Whats the harm in that?But other people are worried about the health and safety effects of kids cell phones. They believe that pluggedin kids could be missing out on other activities, such as playing outside or hanging out with friends, and that sending text messages or fielding phone calls while doing homework is bad for concentration. They say that kids are spending too much time texting instead of talking to each other. “Our brains evolved to municate face to face，” says Gary Small, a professor of psychiatry at the UCLA School of Medicine, in California. “A lot of this is lost with texting.”And some experts are also concerned about possible health risks.

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 Obamas motherinlaw, 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, 83 percent of the people said Mrs. Robinsons decision will influence grandparents in the American family. Twothirds believe more families will follow the example of Obamas family.“In the 1960s we were all a little wild and couldnt get away from home far enough or 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 youre 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.篇章导读：本文是一篇新闻报道。在当今的美国家庭，选择与儿孙住在一起的老人的数量有增加的趋势，大多数人认为与儿孙住在一起有很多好处，但并不是每个老人都适合这种模式，因为有时候放弃自己的生活也会很难。5Why was Garzas move a success?AIt strengthened her family ties.BIt improved her living conditions.CIt enabled her to make more friends.DIt helped her know more new places.答案A细节理解题。根据文章第一段最后一句中的giving them a closer relationship可知，搬家这件事加强了她的家庭联系。故选A。B、C、D三项均为文中未提及的内容。6What was the reaction of the public to Mrs. Robinsons decision?A17% expressed their support for it.BFew people responded sympathetically.C83% believed it had a bad influence.DThe majority thought it was a trend.
