Generation Gap A few years ago,it was fashionable to speak of a generation gap,a division between young people and their elders.Parents complained that children did not show them proper respect and obedience,while children complained that their parents did not understand them at all.
What had gone wrong?Why had the generation gap suddenly 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 opportunity that young people have to choose their own life styles.In more traditional societies,when children grow up,they are expected to live in the same 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,most out of the family home at an early age,marry or live or choose occupations different from those of their parents. In our upwardly mobile 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.
Often,however,the ambitions that parents have for their children are another cause of the division between them.Often they dis-cover that they have very little in common with each other. Finally,the speed at which changes take place in our society is another cause of thie 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 obsolete overnight.
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 to be a feature of American life for some time to come.Its causes are rooted in the freedoms and opportunities of our society,and in the rapid pace at which society changes.The word"around"in Paragraph 1 means_____＿.
A:on all sides
B:in every direction
C:near
D:in existence答案：D解析：文章第一段主要讲述了美国社会中所存在的代沟问题：父母抱怨孩子们不够尊敬和服从他们；孩子们抱怨父母不理解他们。实际上，该问题已经存在了很长一段时间。评论家认为代沟已经成为美国社会结构的一部分。由此可见，代沟是美国的一种特征。因此B为正确答案。
由文章第一段倒数第二句话可知，代沟问题已经存在了很长时间。around在此处意思是“存在”，与in existence（存在）意思相近。因此D为正确答案。
文章从三方面讲述了代沟形成的原因。由第二段第一句话可知，形成代沟的一个重要原因是年轻人必须选择自己的生活方式；由第三段第一句话可知，父母对孩子期望过高也是代沟形成的一个原因；由第四段第一句话可知，社会的快速变化也是导致代沟形成的原因。而文中并未提到现代教育使得孩子与父母想法不同的问题。因此D为正确答案。
由文章第三段最后一句话可知，父母和孩子会发现彼此之间几乎没有相似之处。因此D为正确答案。
文章主要讲的是美国社会中所存在的代沟问题及其形成的原因，并没有提到如何解决这一问题，因此排除A.B选项；而D项（美国社会应该避免代沟问题）文中也未提及.由文章第三段可知，父母对孩子期望过高也是形成代沟的原因。因此C为正确答案。 -

第15题：
This is the age of the quick action. We have instant satisfaction, fast food, speed reading, mobile phones; even the stress management books have titles like "Stress Management in 60 Seconds".
Canadian Classics Professor Margaret Visser points out that the perception that we have "no time" is one of the most strict concepts of Western culture. Visser says that "no time" is used as an excuse and also as a spur (刺激); it both goads us and forces us, just as a concept such as "honour" did for the ancient Greeks. According to Visser, the feeling that Westerners have "no time" is abstract, quantitative, amoral (非道德性的), unarguable, bringing pressure on each person as an individual. At the same time, the "no time" excuse escapes censure by claiming to be a condition created entirely out of our good fortune.
Life offers "so many pleasures, so many choices".
The fact that women now work outside the home has contributed to the "no time" trend. But more important, Visser says, is the fact that feeling rushed has become an important component of our economy. Marketing of "time-saving" products causes people to buy more and work longer. So we eat out or buy prepared food to save time. The fax-it-to-me-in-my-car technology only contributes to the constant hurry. In our rushed and exhausted state, even the obligation (义务) to sit down to casual meal with family seems like a pressure. In comparison with the decision to act on a sudden whims (一时的兴致) to consume a microwave mug of soup, the act of eating together and not getting up from the table until everyone else has finished seems an incredibly time-consuming event. Being in one′ s own personal hurry in the West is somehow "free and preferable".
What does "goad" in "it both goads us and forces us" in the second paragraph probably mean?A.Free.
B.Sour.
C.Instruct.
D.Stimulate.答案：D解析：词义题。free“释放”，sour“变坏，恶化”，instruct“指导”，stimulate“刺激”。根据goad所在句子的前一句“Visser says that‘no time ’is used as all excuse and also as a spur(刺激)”可推测，这里的goad与spur的意思相近。故选D。 -
第16题：

Generation Gap
A few years ago,it was fashionable to speak of a generation gap,a division between young people and
their elders.Parents complained that children did not show them proper respect and obedience,while children
complained that their parents did not understand them at all.What had gone wrong?Why had the generation
gap suddenly 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 opportunity that young people have to choose their own
life styles.In more traditional societies,when children grow up,they are expected to live in the same 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,most out of the family home at
an early age,marry or live or choose occupations different from those of their parents.
In our upwardly mobile 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.Often,however,the
ambitions that parents have for their children are another cause of the division between them.Often they dis-
cover that they have very little in common with each other.
Finally,the speed at which changes take place in our society is another 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 obsolete overnight.
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 to be a feature of American life for some time to come.Its causes
are rooted in the freedoms and opportunities of our society,and in the rapid pace at which society changes.In American society,young people often________.
A:rely on their parents to make a living
B:stay with their parents in order to get an opportunity for higher education
C:seek the best advice fromn their parents
D:have very little in common with their parents答案：D解析：由文章第一段最后一句话“Many critics argue that it is built into the fabric of our society", 可知很多评论家认为代沟问题是美国社会的组成部分。故选B。
around的意思是“围绕；在……附近”，在文章中是指代沟问题已经存在了一段时间，故选D。
文章中提到三个原因。由第二段第一句话，可知选项A年轻人喜欢选择他们自己的生活方式是代沟形成的原囚之一。由文章第三段第一句话，可知选项C父母对子女的高期望也是代沟形成的原因之一。由文章第四段第一句话，可知选项B美国社会的快速发展是代沟形成的原因之一。故选D。
由文章倒数第二段“The young and the old seeni to live in two very different worlds, separa-ted by different skills and abilities"，可知年轻人和老年人由于技术和能力的不同被分隔在两个不同的世界里。故选D。
文章中没有提到代沟问题该如何解决，仅仅提到代沟形成的原因，所以可以排除A、B、 D。 C项说代沟问题在某种程度上说是由老一代造成的，是正确的。 -

Bit is dangerous for parents to reunite with their children in a disaster.
Cwe should develop reasonable plans for disasters.

正确答案： D解析：
主旨题。[A]是文章所反映的一个方面，并非文章的主旨和重心；B在文中并没有线索表明他们的做法是危险的，而且该选项也不能反映文章的主旨，因此排除此选项；文章第二段提到说美国政府在备灾方面还存在很多不足之处，需要不断完善，因此D的说法是错误的；C“我们应该制定合理的备灾计划”正是文章所讲的中心。 -
