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 their 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 from 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 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 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.
What did Crosby say about people in the 1960s?
选项
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 experiences for their grandparents.
答案
C
解析
推理判断题。由第三段首句“In the 1960s we were…do it on our own”可推断20世纪60年代的时候,人们想要离开家去证明自己的能力,但现实并不允许,心里其实是想离开家的,C选项正确。
