Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the answer to each of the question. The generation gap that was so in evidence during the 60s has resurfaced, but it is not the disruptive force that it was during the Vietnam era, a 2009 study suggests. The Pew Research Center study found that 79% of Americans see major differences between younger and older adults in the way they look at the world. In 1969, a Gallup Poll found that a smaller percentage, 74%, perceived major differences. Today, however, although more Americans see generational differences, most do not see them as divisive. That is partly because of the areas of difference. The top areas of disagreement between young and old, according to the Pew Research Study, are the use of technology and taste in music. Grandparents are likely to have observed these differences in their grandchildren who are tweens, teens, and young adults. Trang 2/4 - Mã đề 002
3. If large differences between the generations exist, why don't they spawn conflict? The answer is twofold. First, the two largest areas of difference—technology and music—are less emotionally charged than political issues. The older generation is likely to be proud of the younger generation's prowess in technology rather than to view it as a problem. As for the musical differences, each generation wants its own style of music, and the older generation generally can relate to that desire. Second, in the other areas of difference, the younger generation tends to regard the older generation as superior to their own generation—clearly a difference from the 1960s with its rallying cry of "Don't trust anyone over thirty." According to the Pew study, all generations regard older Americans as superior in moral values, work ethic and respect for others. Question 30: The word “divisive” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to ? A. positive B. discordant C. agreeing D. serious Question 31: What are the two reasons why large differences between generations don’t cause disagreement? A. The generosity of the elder generation and the attitude of the younger generation. B. The pride of the elder generation and the obedience of the younger one C. The major aspects of differences between generations and the respect to the elder generation. D. The different styles of music and the knowledge of the elder generation. Question 32: Which of the following could be the main idea of the passage? A. The areas of differences in generation gap have changed over the years. B. The generation gap in the past was different from that in modern time. C. Different points of view are the main problem between generations in America. D. Generation gap doesn’t cause a big problem in American families. Question 33. According to the passage, which is NOT true? A. The majority of Americans agree generations’ viewpoint to be the major differences. B. Technology is one of the two biggest areas creating the gap between the old and the young. C. Grandparents feel uncomfortable with their grandchildren because of their better technology skills. D. The elderly in America are admired in moral values, work ethic and respect for others.
