Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题):

For many of us,the idea of a family is a lot narrower than it used to be.Today children go away to college,and take up jobs wherever chances seem greatest.So instead of growing up in a family with grandparents,aunts,uncles and cousins,many of us are truly connected only to our parents and brothers.

Many kids today know little of the lives of their relatives and don't care deeply about them.

Whether we realize it or not.(he feeling of being disconnected makes people feel lonely."People need to feel connected,"says Joy Browne,a doctor in the U.S.“And they will do it in the easiest ways."When family members aren't connected,what could be easier than forming a connection to famous people?

This isn't something unusual,of course.People cried when Mei Yanfang died in 2003.It's natural and in most ways harmless to feel that way,but that's unhealthy,because the relationships aren't two-way(相互的)

For that,we need to stay connected to our own families.Parents can help by telling their children stories about their grandparents,aunts and cousins so that children can know their latest activities and interests.

We can keep connected with our relatives by using technology.It's easy to send E-mail to granddad better yet.A week of relaxing vacation can be a great way to tie up family ties.And when a bad thing happens,no one can be as helpful as your relatives.Because no matter how much we cry for the famous people,they can't be there to cry for us.

1.Are we often connected to our relatives now?

________________________________________________________________

2.What makes people feel lonely?

__________________________________________________________________

3.The relationships between the famous people and us aren't two-way,are they?

__________________________________________________________________

4.Why do parents tell children stories about the relatives?

___________________________________________________________________

5.How can we keep connected with our relatives?

___________________________________________________________________

6.What do you think of keeping connected with your relatives?

____________________________________________________________________

7.How do you connect with them?
