    It is natural for young people to be critical of their parents at times and to blame them for most of the misunderstandings between them. They have always complained, more or less justly, that their parents are out of touch with modern ways; that they are possessive and dominant that they do not trust their children to deal with crises; that they talk too much about certain problems and that they have no sense of humor, at least in parent-child relationships.
    I think it is true that parents often underestimate their teenage children and also forget how they themselves felt when young. Young people often irritate their parents with their choices in clothes and hairstyles, in entertainers and music. This is not their motive. They feel cut off from the adult world into which they have not yet been accepted. So they create a culture and society of then-own. Then, if it turns out that their music or entertainers or vocabulary or clothes or hairstyles irritate their parents, this gives them additional enjoyment. They feel they are superior, at least in a small way, and that they are leaders in style and taste.
    This is a passive way of looking at things. It is natural enough after long years of childhood, when you were completely under your parents" control. But it ignores the fact that you are now beginning to be responsible for yourself. If you plan to control your life, co-operation can be part of that plan. You can charm others, especially parents, into doing things the ways you want. You can impress others with your sense of responsibility and initiative, so that they will give you the authority to do what you want to do.

答案 The author of this article mentioned the generation gap between young people and their parents. Under parents’ strict control, young people are usually quite rebellious. They always try to be different from their old-fashioned parents, especially in trivial area such as style and taste. They find a sense of superiority by creating their own way of living. However, the author believes that this is a passive way for young people to control their own life. What young people should do is to become responsible, cooperative and trustworthy in the first place. Thus, parents are likely to hand over their authority to let young people decide their own life. I couldn’t agree more with the author. We usually view our parents as old-fashioned and conservative so that we won’t take their advice and suggestions into serious consideration. But it turns out that their experiences are quite useful in many circumstances. Their intentions are to help us, not judge or criticize us. To bridge the generation gap, we need more understandings for each other and try to communicate with them patiently. Once our parents believe we are mature and trustworthy, they will respect our own decisions.
