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 lack 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 their 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.
Sometimes you are resistant, and proud because you do not want your parents to approve of what you do. If they approve, it looks as if you are betraying your own age group. But in that case, you are assuming that you are the underdog; you cannot win but at least you keep your honor. 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, cooperation can be part of that plan. You can charm others, especially your parents, into doing things the way 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.
Teenagers do not want their parents to approve of whatever they do because they______.
选项
A、have already been accepted into the adult world
B、feel that they are superior in a small way to the adults
C、they don’t like their parents’ way of life
D、they don’t want to be isolated from people of their own age
答案
D
解析
根据题干的approve将本题出处定位到第四段首句。该句提到,你(指年轻人)不想你的父母同意你所做的。第二段解释了原因:如果他们同意,看起来就是你背叛你那个年龄段的团队。由此反向推断出,年轻人不想父母同意自已的所作所为是不想脱离自己年龄段的团队,故答案为[D]。根据第三段第三句They feel cut off from the adult world into which they have not yet been accepted可知,孩子们还没有完全被成人社会所接受,故[A]错误:[B]在第三段中提及,解释的是青少年的衣着等选择激怒父母的原因,并不是阐述第四段所讲的孩子们不想让父母同意自己的所作所为的原因,答非所问,故排除;[C]是针对首段第二句设的干扰项。
