Parents often dislike what their children think and do, while children often complain that their parents cannot understand them. This is what we call the generation gap.There are reasons for the existence of the generation gap. Firstly, the environment in which young people now live is quite different from that in which their parents grew up. Therefore, they often hold different interests. Young people want to do what they like, while older people often interfere when they think what young people are doing is wrong.However, the generation gap can be bridged as long as both parents and children are willing to make an effort. They may talk openly and honestly and tell each other what they think about certain problems. They should be considerate enough to realize that each generation has its own advantages. The openness and consideration will probably result in a much better relationship between parents and their children.ExplanationStudy of words and expressions in Text A(50min)Vocabulary:1. generation n. 一代，一代人2. gap n.間隙；隔閡；差距Phrase： 1) the gap between imports and exports 進出口的差額 2) generation gap 代溝3.mean vt. 意思是；意欲，打算Phrase： 1) mean to do something 打算做某事 2) mean doing something 意味著做某事Meaning n. 意思，含義Meaningful adj. 有意義的，意味深長的4. fear vt. 害怕，擔心 n.害怕，恐懼Phrase：be in fear of 為而提心吊膽5. plague n. 瘟疫；天災6. major adj. 主要的，n.主課，專業(yè) vi. 主修，專攻Majority n. 多數(shù)，大多數(shù)7. corporation n. 公司Synonym：company8. concerned adj. 關切的，擔心的Phrase：be concerned about 關心，操心 be concerned with 有關，涉及9. dorm n. 宿舍10. save vt. 節(jié)??；解救Saving n. 節(jié)約，節(jié)儉Savings n. 儲蓄，存款 a savings account 存折11. sake n.緣故，理由Phrase： for the sake of 為了的緣故12. exaggerate vt. 夸大，夸張Exaggerator n. 言過其實的人Exaggeration n. 夸大，夸張13. collect vt. 收集，收繳Collector n. 收集人；收款員Collection n. 收集收款Collective adj. 集合的；集體的Collectivism n. 集體主義14. charge v. 收費 n.費用Phrase： free of charge 免費15. mess n. 混亂 vi.瞎弄Phrase：in a mess 一團糟 Make a mess of 把弄糟Messy adj. 凌亂的，臟亂的16. priority n.優(yōu)先Prior 優(yōu)先的17. vacation n. 假期，休假Synonym: holiday n. 假期Vacation n.職業(yè)18. clean up 打掃干凈，整理19. make (the) bed 鋪床20.make (a) difference 有影響，很重要21. for sb.s sake 為了某人的緣故22. care about 關心，對感興趣23. bring up 養(yǎng)育Language points:1.
