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 modem 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 humour, at least in parent-child relationships.
[79]
I think it is true that parents often underestimate their teenage children and also forget how they felt themselves when they were young.
Young people often irritate their parents with their choices in clothes, hairstyles, 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, entertainers, vocabulary, 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 teenagers are resistant, and proud because they do not want their parents to approve of what they do. If they did approve, it looks as if the teenager is betraying his own age group. All this is assuming that the teenager is the underdog; he can’t win but at least he can keep his honour. This is a passive way of looking at things. It is natural enough after years of childhood, when children were completely under their parents’ control, but it ignores the fact that when they become teenagers, children are beginning to be responsible for themselves.
If you plan to control your life, co-operation should be a part of that plan. You can charm other people, especially your parents, into doing things the way you want. [80]
You can also impress people with your sense of responsibility and your initiative, so that they will give you the authority to do what you want to do.
[br] Teenagers have strange clothes and hairstyles because they______.
选项
A、have a strong desire to be leaders in style and taste
B、want to prove their existence by creating a culture of their own
C、have no other way to enjoy themselves
D、want to irritate their parents
答案
B
解析
第三段提到青少年很难融入成人世界,因此要“创造他们自己的文化来证明他们的存在”。根据第三段末句可知“对于成为有风格和品味的领导者”,他们没有那么强烈的欲望,A项错误。C项“没有其他放松的方式”与文中additional enjoyment矛盾。D项“惹怒家长”不是他们的动机/目的。
