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 lifestyle. 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 like and often to continue the family occupation.
    Parents often want their children to do better than they do, to find better jobs, to make more money; the high expectation that parents place on their children is another cause of the generation gap.
    Finally, the high speed of social change 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a traditional culture, people are valued for their wisdom, but in our society today the knowledge of a lifetime may be outdated overnight (一夜之间).
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
