Is the generation gap in America no longer a severe problem as it used to be? Dating back to the
1960s when teenagers tended to lash out the values and goals of their parents as well as rebel against the
authority figures, the incendiary conflicts between older and younger generations increased sharply. It’s
because teenagers' world wasn’t any longer limited in a narrow society that wasn’t mobile, and instead of
going to church every weekend, they were exposed to various forms of social media like television and
radios. They got access to huge sources of new ideas, which liberated them from old-fashioned and boring
lifestyles whereas many older people were conservative and didn’t accept differences disturbing their
normal life. Over time, however, the tension between generations has been alleviated due to the improved
mutual understanding of baby boomers, Millennials and even Zillennials in many fields of life. According
to recent research, the largest generational discrepancies between young and old in the United States are the
use of technology and taste in music. Nevertheless, in terms of technological use, many older people
gradually learn how to use a laptop or smartphone to surf the Internet from their children and especially
their grandchildren due to their recognition of huge technological benefits. Regarding the musical
differences, unlike in the past, older generations nowadays appear to give fewer critical remarks on what
type of music teens should listen to and begin to accept the variety of music tastes when living under the
same roofs.
Question 23. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The development of the generation gap in America nowadays.
B. The eradication of the generation gap in America in the past.
C. The alleviation of the generation gap in America nowadays.
D. The reduction of the generation gap in America in the past.

Question 25. According to the passage, what types of social media provided young people with new ideas
in the 1960s?
A. The Internet and television. B. The Internet and radios.
C. The television and radios. D. The television and printed newspaper.
Question 26. According to recent research mentioned in the passage, what are the two main areas of
generational discrepancies in the United States?
A. Taste in music and technological use. B. Church attendance and traditional values.
