VII. READING
1. READING 1
The generation gap, which refers to a broad difference between one generation and another, especially between
young people and their parents, usually leads to numerous conflicts. Such family conflicts can seriously threaten

the relationship between parents and children at times.
It goes without saying that, however old their children are, parents still regard them as small kids and
keep in mind that their offspring are too young to protect themselves cautiously or have wise choices.
Therefore, they tend to make a great attempt to help their children to discover the outside world. Nevertheless,
they forget that as children grow up, they want to be more independent and develop their own identity by
creating their own opinions, thoughts, styles and values about life.
One common issue that drives conflicts is the clothes of teenagers. While teens are keen on wearing
fashionable clothes which try to catch up with the youth trends, parents who value traditional clothes believe
that those kinds of attire violate the rules and the norms of the society. It becomes worse when the expensive
brand name clothes teens choose seem to be beyond the financial capacity of parents.
Another reason contributing to conflicts is the interest in choosing a career path or education between
parents and teenagers. Young people are told that they have the world at their feet and that dazzling future
opportunities are just waiting for them to seize. However, their parents try to impose their choices of university
or career on them regardless of their children's preference.
Indeed, conflicts between parents and children are the everlasting family phenomena. It seems that the
best way to solve the matter is open communication to create mutual trust and understanding.
Choose the best answers for the following questions.
1. Why do most parents still treat their teenage children like small kids?
A. Because children usually make mistakes
B. Because they think that children are too young to live independently.
C. Because they think that children can't protect themselves well.
2. The word "offspring" in the second paragraph refers to ____.
A. parents
B. children
C. mind
3. What do parents usually do to help their children as they are young?
A. They prepare everything for their children.
B. They take care of their children carefully.
C. They encourage their children to explore the outside world.
4. Which kinds of clothes do teenagers want to wear?

A. latest fashionable clothes
B. casual clothes
C. shiny trousers and tight tops
5. According to the passage, what are parents' viewpoints about the teenagers' clothes?
A. Teenagers' clothes get the latest teen fashion trends.
B. Teenagers' clothes are too short and ripped.
C. Teenagers' clothes are contrary to the accepted standards and values of the society.
6. Why do teenagers want to choose their university or career?
A. They want to explore the world on their own.
B. They want to decide their future by themselves.
C. Both A and B are correct.
7. The word "seize" in the fourth paragraph is closest in meaning to ____.
A. catch
B. choose
C. find
8. Which can be the best title for the passage?
A. Where do parent-child conflicts come from?
B. How are children different from their parents?

C. How do we bridge the generation gap?

In many aspects of life, effective communication skills are extremely important. With good
communication skills, people can enjoy better interpersonal relationships with friends and family. The
following are some guides that can help you improve your communication skills.
Learn to listen
Listening is not the same as hearing you should learn to listen not only to the words being spoken but
also how they are being spoken and the non-verbal messages sent with them. You shouldn't think about what to
say next while listening; instead clear your mind and focus on the message being received. Your friends,
