Passage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.A few years ago it was fashionable to speak of a generation gap，a division between young people and their elders. Parents complained that children did not show them proper respect and obedience，while children complained that their parents did not understand them at all. What had gone wrong? Why had the generation gap suddenly appeared? Actually，the generation gap has been around for a long time. Many critics argue that it is built into the fabric of our society.One important cause of the generation gap is the opportunity that young people have to choose their own life styles. In more traditional societies，when children grow up，they are expected to live in the same area as their parents，to marry people that their parents know and approve of，and often to continue the family occupation. In our society，young people often travel great distances for their educations，move out of the family home at an early age，marry-or live with-people whom their parents have never met，and choose occupations different from those of their parents.In our upwardly mobile society，parents often expect their children to do better than they did：to find better jobs，to make more money，and to do all the things that they were unable to do. Often，however，the ambitions that parents have for their children are another cause of the division between them. Often，they discover that they have very little in common with each other.Finally，the speed at which changes take place in our society is another cause of the gap between the generations. In a traditional culture，elderly people are valued for their wisdom，but in our society the knowledge of a lifetime may become obsolete overnight. The young and the old seem to live in two very different worlds，separated by different skills and abilities.No doubt，the generation gap will continue to be a feature of American life for some time to come. Its causes are rooted in the freedoms and opportunities of our society，and in the rapid pace at which society changes.The main idea of the first paragraph is that______.A. the generation gap suddenly appearedB. the generation gap is a feature of American lifeC. how people can reduce the generation gapD. many critics argue over the nature of the generation gap
Most Americans find the idea of arranged marriages difficult to understand or accept.They believe that two people should marry for love, after a period of dating or courtship.During that period, the prospective marriage partners are supposed to learn enough about each other to decide whether or not they will be able to build a successful marriage.Today in America, it is common for people to live together as a way of preparing for marriage.The idea of an arranged marriage seems very old-fashioned indeed.But aren't all marriages arranged in one way or another? In the United States marriages are seldom formally arranged, but quite a lot of informal arranging goes on before two people become husband and wife.People who get married are introduced to each other by friends.These friends have already decided that the two people are right for each other and arrange for them to meet.In the United States this kind of arrangement is very common.Because friends have such great influence, their approval of a dating partner is very important.Families also exert open and subtle pressures on their children to influence their choices of marriage partners.Parents often arrange dates for their own children.One parent often tells a friend about her beautiful daughter or handsome son.Also, parents can meet the perfect marriage prospect for their son or daughter through business relationships.Since parents often assist their children financially, they feel that they have the right to help the bride and groom select where they will live, what type of furniture they will purchase, and what their life-style. will be like.1.Most Americans think that arranged marriages are().A.understandableB.acceptableC.unavoidableD.old fashioned2.According to this passage, the prospective marriage partners().A.often write to each otherB.often attend formal parties togetherC.often meet each otherD.often discuss problems together3.Which of the flowing is TRUE according to this passage?()A.Marriages are usually arranged by parents in America.B.No arranging goes on before two people get married.C.Only one formal arrangement takes place before two people get married.D.There are usually a lot of informal arrangements before two people get married.4.Which of the following is NOT true?()A.Parents often try to influence their children's marriages.B.Open arranged marriages are unusual in the U.S.C.Friends sometimes play some role in getting two people together who may get married later.D.Parents never care much about their children's marriages.5.Which of the following can be inferred from the last paragraph?()A.Social class has much influence on marriages.B.Nationality has much influence on marriages.C.Knowledge has much influence on marriages.D.Age has much influence on marriages.
