One of the most difficult things for children to deal with when moving to a new town is leaving their friends and making new ones.
We once moved and one of our new neighbors told us about a summer camp at the Recreation Center all the kids went to. My husband and I looked into it and we found it was unbelievably cheap. I had the kids sign up (报名) the next day so that they could know more kids there.
Another thing we did was to have them sign up for sports when school started. They were happy to be on teams with new friends they made. This also gave me a chance to meet new people and from them I sometimes got some useful ideas for my new books.
If you’re just moving to a new house in the same city you live in now, it won’t really be a problem unless your kids are changing schools. If they are, it is a great idea to have them take the address book to school. Thus, your children won’t feel “lost” without their old friends.
If you’re able to, over the summer vacation, try inviting the friend your child misses most to come and visit your new home for a week, or even a few weeks. I know this can be difficult if that child has to fly, but maybe you can work out a plan with the child’s parents. Think how happy the kids will be when they meet!
The author had her kids sign up for the summer camp mainly because _____.
A. she could afford the cost B. she was asked to do so by her kids
C. it could give her kids a chance to meet more kids
D. it could make the summer holiday not so boring
What is probably the author?
A. A housewife. B. A business woman. C. A teacher. D. A writer.
What we can’t learn from the passage is that ____.
A. a summer camp at the Recreation Center was very cheap
B. having the kids take part in sports is good for both the author and her kids
C. parents should ask their children not to think of their old friends
D. parents should create more chances for children to make new friends
The purpose of the passage is to teach parents how to ______ when they move to a new place.
A. get used to the new life in a short time
B. help their children make new friends and keep the old ones
C. get along with their new neighbors
D. help their children get used to the new school life
