“Yes, I’ll be ready at nine in the morning. Goodbye, dear, and thanks again.” It had not been an easy telephone call for Mrs. Robson to make. Her daughter had been very kind, of course, and had immediately agreed to pick her up and drive her to the station, but Mrs. Robson hated to admit that she needed help. Since her husband had died ten years before, she had always been proud of her independence. She had continued to live in their little house, alone.
On this evening, however, she was standing at her living-room window, staring out at the SOLD notice in the small front garden. Her feelings were mixed. Of course, she was sad at the thought of leaving the house, as it was full of so many memories. But at the same time she was looking forward to spending her last years near the sea, back in the little seaside town where she had been born. With the money from the sale of the house, she had bought a little apartment there. She turned from the living room window, and looked round at the walls. There was a small fish tank, with two goldfish in it. When asked why, her husband used to say, “It’s nice to have something alive in the room.” Since he had passed away, she had always kept some goldfish, had always had “something alive in the room.”
The next morning, as her train was pulling out of the station, Mrs. Robson called to her daughter, “Kate, you won’t forget to collect the goldfish, will you? The children will love them. It’s …” “I know,” Kate interrupted gently, “It’s nice to have something alive in the room.”

When my grandmother was raising me in Stamps，Arkansas，she had a particular routine(惯例)when people who were known to be whiners entered her store. My grandmother would ask the customer，“How are you doing today，Thomas？” The person would reply，“Not so good today, Henderson.You see，it's this summer heat.I just hate it.It just makes me tired.It's almost killing me.”Then my grandmother would stand calmly，her arms folded，and say，“Uh-huh，uh huh.”
As soon as the complainer was out of the store，my grandmother would call me to stand in front of her.Then she would say the same thing she had said at least a thousand times，it seemed to me.“Jane，did you hear what so-and-so complained about？”And I would nod.Grandmother would continue，“Jane，there are people who went to sleep all over the world last night，poor and rich and black and white，but they will never wake again.Those dead people would give anything，anything at all for just five minutes of this weather that person was complaining about.So you watch yourself about complaining，Jane.What you're supposed to do when you don't like a thing is change it.If you can't change it，change the way you think about it.Don't complain.”
I have learned a lot from my grandmother.Her opinions always hit the nail on the head.Whining is not only impolite, but can be dangerous.
1.The underlined word “whiners” in Paragraph 1 refers to those people who enter a store regularly.
2. From what the author's grandmother said we can infer that she was against whining.
3.The author's grandmother told her to treasure every moment of her life.
4.The author was told different things after the whiners left Grandmother's store.
5.The purpose of the author in writing the passage is to show that complaining is not only rude but harmful.
