Example 2: Generation gap is a very common phenomenon. This world always changes so fast that what we think true today will be absolutely wrong tomorrow. We must adjust our mind to the new environment all the time, or we’ll just can’t understand the new age. But so many parents just stay in their past and don’t want to look at the world in a new way. So, the generation gap comes into being.
There is more we can talk about generation gap. I think the most important reason why the generation gap exists is that the two generations can’t understand each other in different positions. Not only can’t parents think in their children's way, their children also can’t think in their parents’ way. We just need to understand each other more. Because what we experience is so different, we need more communication and more love.
There are so many gaps in the world. Sometimes we are so sad, but it’s just a fact which we must face. What we can do is just to try to understand each other as much as possible, though in fact no matter what we do, there are always some differences between two generations.
Brief Comment: Example 2着重分析了代沟产生的原因。父母对新观念需要一个渐进的认识和接受过程。家庭中,思想文化更新最快的是子女,在成长的过程中他们发现自我,追求独立。父母一味地按照固有的方式应对孩子的“叛逆”只能事与愿违。
