donated their time.Withinmonths,McKennas garden was producing lettuces,tomatoes and cucumbers for students andtheir families.Now,seven years later,McKennas Giving Garden project has expanded to five areaschools in addition to his own backyard garden.For most of his gardening activities,McKennawears the same T-shirt in different colors,with his personal motto on it:BE A GOOD HUMAN.Tohim,that means helping in any way you can,no matter what your age.“Even a smile might change someones life/he says./zlt lets them know that they areimportant.It can make their day.”When COVID-19 hit the U.S.,McKenna

development of the parent-child relationship.C.To suggest the ways to handle the parent-child relationship.D.To solve the problem of the parent-child relationship.DAs a college student in Boston,I formed the habit of buying used books.I enjoy the hunt,thegood price and the unrecognized treasures.I find old textbooks,ex-bestsellers,and books onsubjects Ive never heard of and now must learn all about.I dont search for rare books,firsteditions,or leather-bound editions but books that are worth reading.Rereading,for me,is a pleasure during retirement.The theater and the concert hall becomeless appealing to me,along with crowds.Staying alone and reading books have becomeextremely important to me.Literature needs the flesh of experience to have its full effect.Different books offer me insights and ways of expressing that stuck in my mind as grains of sandin an oyster now shine like pearls.My taste in books improves with age.While packing for a move,which occurs at intervals of five to seven years,I clear my shelvesand pick my books.I abandon a few,later regret my decisions,and look for them again.Severalyears ago,I got rid of books related to my job-architecture.Some were design guides,referencebooks,product catalogs,and things that went out of date.Some were historical or centered on aperiod or an architect.These had given me many hours of pleasure.Will I ever open their coversagain?Certainly.I held on to the red bulk of Sir Banister Fletcher/s A History of Architecture andbooks on Paris,Rome,and Boston.I gave away drafting equipment and instruments.I threw out rolls and rolls of paper,and olddrawings of projects completed long ago,some of which had even been damaged.This time,Istay put in a cottage that suits my status and Ive moved on in spirit.No doubt I will
