Americans with small families own a small car or a
large one. If both parents are working, they usually have two cars. If the
family is large, one of the cars is sold and they will buy a van (住房汽车).
Sometimes the children would like to call their grandparents to travel
together. Mr. Bush and his wife just had a third child last

they put some things on the sixth and seventh seat, because a family with three
children must carry many suitcases (衣箱). And when they arrive at their
grandparents’ home, they can also carry their grandparents.
During the travel, they can live in their van for a few days or weeks. All the
members of a big family can enjoy a happy life when they are traveling together.

In America there are also many parks for vans. How many children does Mr. Bush have now
