(2022·湖南省益阳市高一上学期期中)
It feels like every time my mother and I start to have a conversation,it turns into an argument.We talk about something as simple as dinner plans and suddenly my_mother_will_push_the_conversation_into_the_Third_World_War.She'll talk about my lack of bright future because I don't plan to be a doctor.And much to her disappointment,I don't want to do any job related to science,either.In fact,when I was pushed to say that I planned to major in English,she nearly had a heart attack.
“Why can't you be like my coworker's son?” she shouts all the time.Her coworker's son received a fouryear scholarship and is now earning 70,000 dollars a year as an engineer.I don't know what to say except that I simply can't be like Mr.Perfect as I've called the unnamed coworker's son.I can't be like him.I am the type of the person who loves to help out in the community,write until the sun goes down,and most of all,wants to achieve something because of loving it,not because of fame or salary.
I understand why my mother is worried about my future major.I've seen my mother struggle to raise me on her small salary and work long hours.She leaves the house around 6:30 am and usually comes back home around 5:00 pm or even 6:00 pm.
However,I want her to know that by becoming a doctor,it doesn't mean I'll be successful.I'd rather follow my dreams and create my own future.

(2022·山东省青岛市高一上学期期中)
Years ago it was popular to speak of a generation gap,a disagreement between young people and their elders.Parents said that children did not show them proper respect and obedience(服从),while children complained that their parents did not understand them at all.Often,they discover that they have very little in common with each other.What had gone wrong? Why had the generation gap suddenly appeared? Actually the generation gap has been around for a long time.Many people argue that a gap is built into the fabric(结构)of our society.
One important cause of the generation gap is the chance that young people have to choose their own ways of life.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 agree to,and to continue the family occupation.In our society,young people often travel great distances for their education,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 easily changing 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 strong wish that parents have for their children is another cause of the disagreement between them.
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 out of date 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 freedom and changes of our society,and in the rapid speed at which society changes.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了现代社会的普遍现象代沟问题,分析了代沟问题的主要原因。
5.In modern society,young people often ________.
A.depend on their parents to make a life
B.live with their parents in the same area
C.ask their parents for the best advice
D.have many differences between them and their parents
D [细节理解题。根据第一段中“Often,they discover that they have very little in common with each other.”可知,在现代社会,年轻人和他们的父母很少有共同之处,故选D项(他们和他们的父母有很多不同之处)。]
6.What can we infer from paragraph 3?
A.Parents should be strict with their children.
B.The generation gap is partly caused by the older generation.
C.Parents couldn't do things well themselves.
D.The young never want to satisfy their parents.
B [推理判断题。根据第三段中“...the strong wish that parents have for their children is another cause of the disagreement between them.”可知,父母对孩子的强烈愿望往往是他们之间分歧的另一个原因。由此可推断出,代沟一部分原因是由老一辈造成的,故选B项。]
7.Which of the following also causes the generation gap?
A.Parents are not strict enough with their children.
B.The young value the old too much for their wisdom.
C.Young people don't have the knowledge of a lifetime.
D.The society develops too fast.
D [细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Finally,the speed at which changes take place in our society is another cause of the gap between the generations.”可知,社会发生变化的速度是造成代沟的另一个原因,故选D项。]

A.The concept of generation gap.
B.The reasons for generation gap.
C.Ways to reduce generation gap.
D.Attitudes towards generation gap.
B [主旨大意题。根据第二段中“One important cause of the generation gap is the chance that young people have to choose their own ways of life.”和第三段中“the strong wish that parents have for their children is another cause of the disagreement between them.”及最后一段中“Finally,the speed at which changes take place in our society is another cause of the gap between the generations.”可知,本文介绍了代沟的原因,故选B项。]
