Americans with small families have a small car or a large one. If both parents are working they usually have two cars. When the family is large, one of the cars is sold (卖) and they will buy a van.       A small car can hold (容纳) four persons and a large car can hold six persons but it is very crowed (拥挤). A van hold seven persons easily, so a family with three children could ask their grandparents to go on a holiday travel. They could all travel together.       Mr. Green and his wife had a third child last year. This made them sell a second car and buy a van. The sixth and seventh seats are used to put other things, for a family of five must carry many suitcases when they travel. When they arrived at their grandparents' home, the suitcases are brought into the room, the two seats can then carry the grandparents.       Americans call vans motor homes. A motor home is always used for holidays. When a family are traveling to the mountains or to the seaside, they can live in their motor home for a few days. All the members of a big family can enjoy a happy life when they are traveling together.       That is why motor homes have become popular. In America there are many parks for motor homes.
