elders Parents said that children did not show them proper respect and obedience while children complained 抱怨 that their parents did not understand them at all What had gone wrong Why had the generation gap suddenly appeared Actually the generation gap has been around for a long time Many people argue that a gap is built into the fabric 结构 of our society One important cause of the generation gap is the chance that young people have to choose their own ways of life In more traditional societies when children grow up they are expected to live in the same area as their parents to marry people that their parents know and agree to and to continue the family occupation 职业 In our society young people often travel great distances for their education move out of the family home at an early age marry or live with people whom their parents have never met and choose occupations different from those of their parents In our easily changing society parents often expect their children to do better than they did to find better jobs to make more money and to do all the things that they were unable to do Often however the strong desire that parents have for their children are another cause of the disagreement between them Often they discover that they have very little in common with each other Finally the speed at which changes take place in our society is another cause of the gap between the generations In a traditional culture elderly people are valued for their wisdom but in our society the knowledge of a lifetime may become out of date overnight The young and the old seem to live in two very different worlds separated by different skills and abilities No doubt the generation gap will continue to be a feature 特点 of American life for some time to come It s causes are rooted in the freedom and changes of our society and in the rapid speed at which society changes 1 The main idea of the first paragraph is that A the generation gap suddenly appeared B the generation

young people often A depend on their parents to make a life B stay with their parents in order to get a chance for higher education C seek the best advice from their parents D have very little in common with their parents 答案答案 D 第三段最后一句 PassagePassage 6 6 Some English words are made up of the same part and have different beginnings and different endings such as import ex port report and
