问题      People today are still talking about the generation gap (代沟). Some parents complain that their children do not show them proper respect, while children complain that their parents do not understand them at all.
     What has gone wrong? Why has the generation gap appeared?
     One important cause is that young people want to choose their own life style. In more traditional societies, when children grow up, they are expected to live in the same area as their parents, to many people that their parents like, and often to continue the family occupation.
     Parents often expect their children to do better than they do, to find better jobs, to make more money, and to do all the things that they were unable to do. Often, however, the high wishes that parents place on their children are another cause of the generation gap.
     Finally, the high speed of social changes deepens the gap. In a traditional culture, people are valued for their wisdom, but in our society today the knowledge of a lifetime may be out of use overnight(隔夜).
Parents often hope that their children will ______.

选项 A、make as much money as they do
B、be more successful than they are
C、choose jobs according to their own will
D、avoid doing what their parents can’t do

答案B

解析 第四自然段第一句话“Parents often expect their children to do better than they do…”(父母们期望他们的孩子能够比他们做得更好……)可以直接找到答,案。A项能够赚大钱;C项根据他们自己的意愿选择工作;D项不去做那些他们父母做不了的事文中没有涉及到这些内容,故本题答案为B。
