People today are still talking about the generation gap (代沟). Some parents

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 life style. In more traditional societies, when children grow up, they are expected to live in the same area as their parents, to many people that their parents like, and often to continue the family occupation.
     Parents often expect their children to do better than they do, to find better jobs, to make more money, and to do all the things that they were unable to do. Often, however, the high wishes that parents place on their children are another cause of the generation gap.
     Finally, the high speed of social changes 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 out of use overnight(隔夜). [br] According to the passage, children today expect their parents to ______.
选项 A、give them more independence
B、choose a good job for them
C、live together with them
D、make more money
答案 A
解析 从第三自然段的第一句话“…young people want to choose their own life style．” (年轻人想选择他们自己的生活方式。)可以推断出他们一定希望得到更多的独立和自由。B项为他们选择一份较好的工作；C项与他们生活在一起；D项赚很多的钱文章中的内容并没有涉及到，故本题答案为A。
