Nowadays, it was fashionable to speak of a generation gap, a【S1】______between young people and their elders. Parents complained that their children did not show them proper respect and【S2】______. while children complained that their parents did not understand them at all. What had gone wrong? Why had the generation gap【S3】______appeared? Actually, the generation gap has been around for a long time. Many critics argue that it is built into the fabric of our society.
One important cause of the generation gap is the【S4】______that young people have to choose their own lifestyles. In more【S5】______societies, when children grow up, they are expected to live in the【S6】______area as their parents, to marry people that their parents know and approve of, and often to continue the family occupation. 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【S7】______. and choose occupations different from those of their parents.
In our modern 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. But often they discover that they have very little in【S8】______with each other. The speed at which changes take place in our society is【S9】______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culture, elderly people are valued for their wisdom, but in our society the knowledge of a lifetime may become out of date【S10】______. The young and the old seem to live in two very different worlds, separated by different skills and abilities.
[A] traditional [F] met [K] common
[B] subjection [G] same [L] obedience
[C] confronted [H] opportunity [M] other
[D] overnight [I] civilized [N] distinction
[E] division [J] suddenly [O] another
【S4】
选项
答案
H
解析
空前的the和空后的that表明,本空应填一名词。结合下文提到的年轻人选择不同于他们父母的职业而不是继续从事家族的职业可知,年轻入有权选择自己的生活方式,即有选择自己生活方式的机会了,故答案为[H]opportunity“机会”。[B]subjection“征服;隶属”和[N]distinction“差别;区分”均与此处语义不符,故排除。
