[originaltext] Despite various improvements in all aspects of social life, t

Despite various improvements in all aspects of social life, the generation gap between the grown-up and young remains unbridged. Instead, it grows wider apart.
    Nowadays, the youths do not blindly follow what their elders say. Owing to the widespread of education, the influence of western civilization, to a certain extent, gives them a new code of philosophy, which is completely different from that of their elders. An invisible cold wall thus appears between the two generations.
    Modern youths are trying to be more revolutionary. They have their own interpretation for different matters; they also have their own ideals. Their reluctance to learn old teachings and sayings becomes the constant friction between the two generations. They always introduce new changes. However, the old people, wedded to everything of the past, are hostile to changes and the generation gap becomes wider and wider.
    After all, the young generation, like the old one, is made of flesh and blood. The young also need respect and they also have skills and good ideas. In order to narrow the gap, both groups should respect each other, listen to the words of each other. Most probably, these may help to solve the problem.
