Moving at any time of a year is difficult,but if you have a flexible schedule and are not on a specific timeline,there are several factors to consider when deciding when to move.Keep in mind that these factors could also be part of a negotiation deal with your employer if you are being relocated or if starting a new position.
If you have children at home,it is best to work around the school calendar.Summer is an ideal time,as children have completed another grade and have said their goodbyes to school friends.Planning to move directly following the end of school,however,does not give your children time to adapt to the idea of moving,to say goodbye to neighborhood friends and their home.When setting the date,allow a few weeks at the new destination for children to unpack and meet new neighborhood friends.They will be better prepared for the school year if they have time to make their new house into their home.Too much change can be detrimental to performance and emotional well-being.
What works best for your children also works best for you.As part of the settling in process,take a few days for you and your children to check out the new school,meet some teachers and find appropriate transportation.Both you and your children will be better prepared,leading to a smoother transition.
When possible,avoid moving before major holidays,such as Christmas,since part of such holidays is being with family and friends.Birthdays,and other family events can also be difficult.Give yourself enough time in your new place before the holiday season begins to meet new people and feel a sense of community.Better yet,save your move for immediately following a holiday.Holidays provide a perfect opportunity for goodbyes and final get-togethers.
Most people would agree that summer is the best time to move.Children are out of school,the weather is almost guaranteed to be perfect and friends are available to help.If this is your ideal time to move,make sure you check moving company schedules and rates before confirming your move date.Most companies have peak times and will charge higher rates accordingly.Also,if you are planning to move at peak times,you will need to be better organized to ensure that a moving company or a moving truck is available for the date and times you require.Keep in mind that the level of the service often changes between the summer months,when students replace full-time experienced movers,and off-season.
As much as summer could cost you more,winter,as common sense indicates,is also not an ideal time to move.Travel is difficult,both for you and your family,along with the moving company.Items kept overnight in a truck under freezing conditions may result in damaged goods.If you are moving from one climate to another,water damage may occur when the mode of transport that is moving your household items travels from a cold environment to a warmer climate.Freezing and thawing cause the most damage if items are not properly sealed.
5.According to the passage,before moving children usually______.
A.meet new neighborhood friends
B.pack their package
C.say goodbye to neighborhood friends
D.complete their grades
解析:选C。逻辑推断题。根据第二段中的“Planning to move directly following the end of school,however,does not give your children time to adapt to the idea of moving,to say goodbye to neighborhood friends and their home.”可知,孩子们在搬家前一般会向周围的朋友们道别。
6.What is the disadvantage of moving in summer?
A.The weather.
B.Moving company schedules.
C.The changeable level of the service.
D.Without friends’ help.
解析:选C。细节理解题。根据第五段的最后一句可以知道:在夏天假期里搬家公司会请学生打工,这会降低服务的档次。
7.According to the passage,when is the best time to move?
A.Winter.
B.Vacations.
C.Major holidays.
D.Summer.
解析:选D。细节理解题。根据第五段的第一句可知答案。
