Old people are always saying that the young are not what they were. The same comment is【C1】______from generation to generation and it is always true. It has【C2】______been truer than it is today. The young are better educated. They have a lot more money to spend and enjoy more freedom. They grow up more quickly and are not so【C3】______on their parents. They think more for themselves and do not【C4】______accept the ideals of their elders. Events which the older generation remembers【C5】______are nothing more than past history. This is as it should be. Every new generation is different from the one that【C6】______it. Today the difference is very【C7】______indeed.
The old always assume that they know best for the simple【C8】______that they have been around a bit longer. They don’t like to feel that their【C9】______are being questioned or threatened. And this is precisely【C10】______the young are doing. They are questioning the assumptions of their elders and【C11】______their complacency(自满). Office hours, for instance, are nothing more than【C12】______slavery. Wouldn’t people work best if they were given complete freedom and responsibility? Who said that all the men in the world should wear dull grey suits and convict haircuts? Why have the older generation so often used violence to solve their problems? Why are they so unhappy and guilt-ridden in their personal lives, so【C13】______with mean ambitions and the desire to amass(积累)more and more material【C14】______?
These are not questions the older generation can shrug【C15】______lightly. Traditionally, the young have turned to their elders for【C16】______. Today, the situation might be【C17】______. The old—if they are prepared to admit it—could learn a thing or two from their children. One of the biggest lessons they could learn is that enjoyment is not "【C18】______". Enjoyment is a principle one could apply to all【C19】______of life. It is surely not wrong to enjoy your work and enjoy your leisure; to【C20】______restricting inhibitions. [br] 【C15】
