25、ons or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45. 33 A few years ago it was common to speak of a generation gap between young people and their elders. Parents said that children did not respect and listen to them, while children said that their parents did not understand them at all. What had
26、 gone wrong? Why had the generation gap suddenly appeared? Actually, the generation gap has been around for a long time. Many people argue that it is built into every part of our society. One important cause of the generation gap is .the opportunity that young people have to choose their own ways of
27、 life. In a more traditional society, when children grow up, they axe expected to live in the same place as their parents, to marry people that their parents know and like, and often to continue the family jobs. In our society, young people often travel great distances for their education, move out
28、of the family at an early age, marry or live with people whom their parents have never met, and choose jobs different from those of their parents. In our 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 the
29、y were unable to do. Often, that is another cause of the gap 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 the third cause of the gap between the generations. In a traditional culture, senior
30、people axe valued for their knowledge, but in our society the knowledge of a lifetime may become out of date. 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 in American life for some time. 33 Th

33、arry people younger than them （ C） have better education than their parents （ D） leave home at an early age 36 Which of the following is NOT the cause of the generation gap? （ A） Young people like to depend more on themselves. （ B） Parents do not love their children dearly. （ C） American society cha
