generation-gap(代沟)英文
六级翻译:身边存在的代沟

请将下面这段话翻译成英文:在当今社会,相差三岁,就会有“沟”,即所谓的:“三岁一代沟”。
以前,在人们的思维里,代沟(generation gap)所表示的时间长度是10到20年。
而到了21世纪,随着全国各地的经济发展,人们文化知识的增长,思想意识的提髙,每个人的个性化和自我意识逐渐增强,人与人之间的交流出现了障碍,人与人之间的想法、观点出现了分歧,很难找到共鸣(resonance)。
这种现象与经济发达程度有关,经济越发达的地方,代沟的时间差距越小。
参考译文:In modern society,there will be a generation gap if the gap of ages reaches 3 years.This is the so-called“Each three-year age gap,one generation gap”.In the past,people thought that generation gap appeared when the age gap reached 10 to 20 years.But in the 21st century,with the national economic development,the growth of people's cultural knowledge and the improvement of their thought and consciousness,people's individualization and self-awareness have gradually been munication barriers among people appear;ideas and viewpoints begin to differ from person to person,making it hard for one to find resonance with other people.This phenomenon is related to the level of economic development-the more developed a place is,the narrower the age gap will be.词句点拨1. 相差三岁,就会有“沟”:这里的“沟”指代沟。

For the sake of fun it carries things to extremes, but nearly everyone can recognize something of themselves and their parents in it.FATHER KNOWS BETTERMarsh CassadyCHARACTERS: FATHER; MOTHER; HEIDI, 14; DIANE, 17; SEAN, 16; RESTAURANT MANAGER, 20s; MRS. HIGGINS.SETTING: Various locations including a fast-food restaurant, the Thompson family dining room, and an office at a high school.ATRISE: As the lights come up, HEIDI enters and crosses Down Right to the edge of the stage. SEAN and DIANE enter and cross Down Left to the edge of the stage. They listen as HEIDI addresses the audience.HEIDI: My dad's a nice man. Nobody could possibly believe that he isn't. Yet he's... well, he's always doing these stupid things that end up really embarrassing one or more of us kids. One time, see, my brother wanted to buy this guitar. Been saving money for it for a long time. Then he got a job at this fast-food place, OK? Waiting tables. It was Sean's first actual job, and he was real happy about it. He figured in two or three months he'd have enough money to buy exactly the kind of guitar he wanted. Mom and Dad were proud of him, and well, OK, he's my big brother, and he's always pulling these dumb things on me. But, well, I was proud of him too. You know what happened? I hate to tell you because:SEAN, DIANE and HEIDI: (In unison) Father knows better!(The lights come Up Left on the fast-food restaurant whereSEAN works. It consists of a counter and a couple of small tables. The MAN-AGER stands behind the counter. SEAN is busily cleaning the tables when FATHER walks in.)MANAGER: Good evening, sir. May I help you?FATHER: Good evening.SEAN: (To himself) Oh, no!(He squats behind one of the tables trying to hide from FATHER.)FATHER: I'm looking for the manager.MANAGER: That would be me, sir.FATHER: I'm Sam Thompson. My son works here.MANAGER: Oh, you're Sean's father.FATHER: Yes. It's his first job, you know. I just wanted to check that he's doing OK.MANAGER: Oh, fine. No problem.SEAN: (Spreading his hands, palms up, speaking to himself) What did I do to deserve this? Tell me what?FATHER: Hiring him was a good thing then?MANAGER: Well, yeah, I suppose so.SEAN: (Still to himself.) Go home, Dad. Go home. Go home.FATHER: I'm sure he's a good worker but a typical teenager, if you know what I mean.MANAGER: (Losing interest) I wouldn't know.FATHER: He's a good boy. And I assure you that if there are any subjects that need to be addressed, Sean and I will have a man-to-man talk.MANAGER: I don't think that will be necessary...FATHER: Oh, no problem. I'm proud of my son. Very, very proud. And I just wanted you to know that I'll do anything I can to help him through life's dangerous sea.SEAN: (Standing up and screaming) Aaaargh! Aaaargh! Aaaaaaargh!FATHER: Son, I didn't know you were here.SEAN: It's where I work, Dad.FATHER: Of course. I mean, I didn't see you.SEAN: I can't imagine why.FATHER: Your manager and I were just having a nice chat.(DIANE enters Down Left just as HEIDI enters Down Right. They look at SEAN and FATHER.)SEAN, DIANE, HEIDI: (In unison) Father, you know better than that.(The lights quickly fade to black and then come up a second or two later. SEAN stands alone at the Down Right edge of the stage. HEIDI and DIANE cross to Down Left edge of the stage.) SEAN: If that sort of thing happened only once in a while, it wouldn't be so bad. Overall, I wouldn't want to trade my dad for anyone else's. He loves us kids and Mom too. But I think that's sometimes the problem. He wants to do things for us, things he thinks are good. But he needs to give them more thought because:SEAN, HEIDI and DIANE: (In unison) Father knows better!(The lights fade to black and come up on the Center Stage area where FATHER and the three children are seated around the dining room table. MOTHER enters carrying a dish, which she sets on the table. FATHER quickly rises and pulls out her chair. She sits. The family starts eating dinner.)FATHER: I have a surprise for you, Diane.DIANE: (Knows it can't be good.) You have... a surprise?MOTHER: Well, whatever it is, dear, don't keep us in suspense.FATHER: Well, you know, Dan Lucas and I work together?DIANE: Kyle's father?MOTHER: Don't interrupt, dear, your father is trying to tell you something.HEIDI: (Stage whisper to SEAN) Something Diane won't want to know, I'll bet.SEAN: (Whispering to HEIDI) Whatever would make you think that?MOTHER: Sean, dear. Heidi, sweetheart, don't distract your father.SEAN and HEIDI: (Simultaneously) Sorry, Mom.FATHER: Now then. As I was saying, I know how much you like young Kyle.DIANE: Father!FATHER: It's true, isn't it? Didn't I hear you tell your mother that you wish Kyle would ask you to the senior prom?SEAN: Uh-oh!HEIDI: Oops!MOTHER: Please, children, please. Your father is trying to speak.DIANE: (Through clenched teeth, the words are in a monotone and evenly spaced.) Yes-I-said-that-why-are-you-asking?FATHER: Well then.DIANE: (Becoming hysterical) "Well then" what?!FATHER: What did I say? Did I say something wrong?HEIDI: (To SEAN) Not yet, he didn't.SEAN: (To HEIDI) But you know it's coming.MOTHER: Children, please. Do give your father the respect he deserves.HEIDI and SEAN: (Rolling their eyes) Yes, Mother.FATHER: Well, today I saw Dan and asked if he'd like to go to lunch at that French restaurant on Third Street. You know the one, Mother.MOTHER: Well, yes, I believe I do.FATHER: My treat, I told him. And, of course, he was glad to accept.MOTHER: Why wouldn't he be?FATHER: (Somewhat surprised) Well, yes.DIANE: What-has-this-to-do-with me?!MOTHER: Diane, sometimes I just don't understand your behavior. I try my best.DIANE: (Very short with her) I'm sorry.MOTHER: Thank you, Diane. (To FATHER) Please do go on, dear.FATHER: As I said —HEIDI: We know what you said, Daddy.FATHER: Er... uh, what's that?SEAN: She said, "We know what you said, Daddy."FATHER: Yes, yes, of course.MOTHER: Do get on with it, dear. I've made the most glorious dessert. An old recipe handed down to me by my great Aunt Hilda —DIANE: Mother, please!MOTHER: Yes, dear?(DIANE shakes her head and lets her body fall against the back of the chair.)FATHER: At any rate, Dan's a nice guy. Never knew him well. Found we have a lot of the same interests. Our families, our community, global peace, human welfare.HEIDI: (Mumbling to herself) That narrows it down, all right.SEAN: Father?FATHER: Yes, son?SEAN: I do believe Diane would like to know the surprise.DIANE: (Breathing hard as if exhausted, she turns to SEAN, nodding her head up and down repeatedly.) Thank you, Sean. I owe you one.FATHER: Well, yes. Here it is then. I told Dan of your interest in his son.DIANE: You what?MOTHER: Diane, what has come over you? I just don't understand the younger generation. Why back in my day —DIANE: Mother, please!MOTHER: What, what? What?HEIDI: Mother, I believe she wants Father to continue.SEAN: (To himself) Get this over with, more likely.DIANE: Daddy, please, tell me. Now. Right away. What did you say, Daddy? Please. Tell me, what did you tell Mr. Lucas? Tell me, please. Please, tell me.FATHER: Well, now, isn't this nice. It looks like my little scheme is a success. You're so eager to find out... makes a man feel as if it's all worthwhile.HEIDI: (To SEAN) Can you believe this?SEAN: (To HEIDI) Oh, sure. Can't you?FATHER: Yes, well, I told him how much you liked young Kyle, and how you'd been wishing he'd ask you to the prom.DIANE: You didn't! Tell me you didn't!FATHER: Oh, yes. Anything for my children.DIANE: (Swallowing hard) And... and —MOTHER: Diane, are you all right?DIANE: (She juts out her chin at MOTHER and quickly jerksher head around to face FATHER.) Well... what did he say?!FATHER: Well, of course, being the sort of man he is — frank, understanding, he said he'd speak to the young man, insist he give you a call.DIANE: (Angry scream!) Whaaaaaat!SEAN and HEIDI: (Together) Father, you know better than that.FATHER: I do? Yes, yes, I guess I do. I've... done it again, haven't I?(The lights quickly fade to black and then come up a second or two later. DIANE stands alone at the Down Right edge of the stage. HEIDI and SEAN enter Down Left and cross to the edge of the stage.)DIANE: Can you imagine how humiliated I was? An honor student, class president. And Father was out asking people to have their sons call and ask me to the prom! But that's dear old dad. Actually, he is a dear. He just doesn't stop to think. And it's not just one of us who've felt the heavy hand of interference. Oh, no, all three of us live in constant dread knowing that at any time disaster can strike because:DIANE, HEIDI and SEAN: (Shouting in unison) Father knows better.(The lights fade to black and quickly come up again Stage Left where there is an executive-type desk and chair and two other chairs. Behind the desk sits MRS. HIGGINS, in charge of admitting new students to Benjamin Harrison High School. HEIDI and FATHER sit in the other chairs.)MRS. HIGGINS: So this is our new student, is it?FATHER: That's right.MRS. HIGGINS: What's your name, young lady?HEIDI: HEIDI Thompson.MRS. HIGGINS: I'm sure you'll find the students friendly. And the teachers more than willing to answer questions.FATHER: She is an exceptional young woman, you know.HEIDI: Daddy!FATHER: Very, very bright.MRS. HIGGINS: Yes, now if we can get you to fill out —FATHER: Don't know where she got her brains. Her mother, I suppose. Oh, I was bright enough. But nothing like HEIDI. All her teachers have told Mrs. Thompson — that's her mother — and me that she was just about the brightest —MRS. HIGGINS: (Interrupts as she loses her patience, though trying to be pleasant) As I said, if you have proof of vaccinations —FATHER: (Interrupts, carrying on with his line of thought) Besides being bright, she's very, very talented.HEIDI: (Twists her hands over and over in front of her chest.) Please, Daddy, don't do this.FATHER: Well, of course I will, darling. I'm proud of you. Your mother and I are proud of you. (Turns back to MRS.HIGGINS.) Why just last year, in her last year of junior high school, before we moved, Heidi placed first in the county in the annual spelling bee! Isn't that wonderful? And she plays the piano like an angel. An absolute angel.HEIDI: Daddy, please. Please, please. Daddy, I have to go to class. I want to go to class. Please let me go to class.FATHER: See what I mean? Such an eager learner. I can't imagine anyone's being more eager for knowledge than my Heidi. My little girl.MRS. HIGGINS: Yes, well, be that as it may —HEIDI: Aaargh! Aaaaargh! Aaaargh!(DIANE and SEAN enter Down Right. They look at HEIDI, FATHER, and MRS. HIGGINS.)HEIDI, DIANE and SEAN: (Shouting in unison) Daddy, you know better than that!FATHER: Er, uh, I do?(Curtain)New Words and Expressionslocationn. a place or position 场所;位置fast-fooda. 供应快餐的dining room餐厅dine▲vi.

• Generation gap Generation gap refers to the distance and contradiction(矛盾) between the old and the youth. • It’s a common(常见的) phenomenon(现象) that exits everywhere in the world and influences both the old and the youth. Generally speaking, generation gap results in different understanding and appreciation of the great and constant(固定的) changes of the world, different reaction to new things, and different attitudes to tradition(传统) principles(原则) and beliefs. Therefore, we may say where there are the old and the youth; there is the generation gap. • Generation gap is natural, but very influential(有影响 的). If we cannot deal with it appropriately(适当地), the gap will be greater and the greater and consequently(结 果) affect the work and the relation between the old and the young.

英语作文代沟 Generation Gap

Generation GapNo one could have failed to notice that the relationship between parents and children has been a vital public topic ck of understanding,parents and kids cannot exchange ideas with each other freely sometimes.we called this situation generation gap.Why generation gap exists ?Firstly,in my view,differing from parents,children easily face diverse and various information,they are likely to do things on their own.But parents always think they are not right.So conflict and generation gap occur.Secondly,parents and children are born in different time,and they are grow up in nearly two worlds.Thus,generation gap naturally becomes the obstacle between parents and kids due to time.As far as I am concerned,it is possible that we can build a bridge between parents and kids to span the generation gap.To start with,frequent communication is very important.Maybe the conflict will disappear while they are talk with each other.Additionally,parents could look some similar interest with kids.If kids feel parents like their friends,the gap may be vanished. Everyone knows without the slightest doubt that love is necessary,so let us communicate with your parents or kids more and more for having a better understanding instead of generation gap.。
Generation gap (代沟)

•In 1960s,American anthropologistMargaret Mead first put forward thisword.(上世纪60年代,美国人类学家玛格丽特.米德首先提出了“代沟”这个概念。
)•The two generation have different values ,the ways of thinking ,behavior and ethical standards .Those result in difference of ideas and Behaviorhabits between them.(代沟是指两代人因价值观念、思维方式、行为方式、道德标准等方面的不同而带来的思想观念、行为习惯的差异。
)In modern times,science and technology hav brought many convenient to us.Many older people don't use that our new generation have the honor to use.(在当今时代,科技给我们带来了许多便利,许多老一辈的人没用过的东西我们新一代却有幸用用上了。
)Two generation of growth is different,have different experiences,the outlook on life,world, values are also different.(两代人有不同的成长经历,产生的人生观,价值观,世界观也就不同了。
)A simple example is:when an elderly ormiddle-aged people say someone is "honest", that is praise him;but when a 80s or 90s saythat ,you probably not happy,because it represents stiff,rigid.(举一个简单的例子:当一个老年人或中年人说某人“老实时”,那是在夸奖他;而当一个80后或90后这样说是,你可能就不高兴了,因为那或许意味着死板,木讷。
英语四级范文:GenerationGap

英语四级范文:GenerationGapDirections: Write a composition entitled Generation Gap. You should write at least 120 words according to the outline given below in Chinese:1. 现代生活越来越好,但老年人和年轻人之间的代沟却依然不可逾越2. 产生代沟的原因3. 解决的办法【范文】Generation GapThough many aspects of our social life have been improved, the generation gap between the youths and the olders remain and even grows wider.In my opinion, because of the influence of individualism from western civilization, the youths do not blindly follow what the elders say, that causes the gap. The young are creative and revolutionary, always go along with the trend and like changing. While the old, accustomed to everything of the past, are hostile to change. Also with more and more different beliefs and philosophical ideas, it is natural the young hold different opinions from the old.I think in order to narrow the gap, both parts should try to understand and respect each other, instead of trying to change others as they wish. Diversity doesn't mean conflict so long as they hold the right attitude towards the problems.。
GenerationGap(代沟)_英语四级作文

Generation Gap(代沟)Generation GapA few years ago it was fashionable to speak of a generation gap. Parents complained that children didn't show them proper respect and obedience, while children complained that their parents didn't understand them at all. Many critics argue that it is built into the fabric of our society.One cause of the generation gap is the opportunity that young people have to choose their own life. In traditional socieries, children live in the same area as their parents, marry people their parents know and approve of, and often continue the family occupation. In our society, people often move out of the home at an early age, marry or live with people their parents have never met, and choose occupations that are rather different.In our upwardly mobile society, parents often expect their children to be better than them. However, these ambitions for their children are another cause of the division between them. Often they discover that they have very little in common.Finally, the speed of change in our society is another cause of it. In a traditional culture, people are valued for their wisdom, but in our society the knowledge of a lifetime may become out of date. 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 our life for some time to come. Its causes are rooted in the freedoms and opportunities of our society, and in the rapid pace at which society changes.代沟几年前,代沟是一个非常流行的词。
英语代沟作文带翻译

英语代沟作文带翻译Generation Gap。
Generation gap refers to the differences in opinions, values, attitudes, and behaviors between the younger and older generations. It is a common phenomenon in every society, and it often leads to misunderstandings and conflicts between parents and children. The generation gap is caused by various factors, such as technological advancements, social changes, and cultural differences.First and foremost, technological advancements have played a significant role in widening the generation gap. The younger generation is more tech-savvy and comfortable with using the latest gadgets and social media platforms, while the older generation may struggle to adapt to these new technologies. This difference in technological literacy often leads to misunderstandings and frustration between the two generations.Moreover, social changes have also contributed to the generation gap. The younger generation is more open-minded and progressive in their views on issues such as gender equality, LGBTQ+ rights, and environmental conservation. On the other hand, the older generation may hold more traditional and conservative beliefs, leading to clashes in opinions and values.Additionally, cultural differences between the younger and older generations can also widen the generation gap. With globalization, younger generations are exposed to a wide range of cultures and perspectives, which may differ from the cultural values and norms upheld by the older generation. This cultural disconnect can lead to misunderstandings and conflicts within families and communities.In order to bridge the generation gap, it is crucialfor both the younger and older generations to foster open communication and understanding. Both generations should be willing to listen to each other's perspectives and learn from one another. Parents should make an effort tounderstand the challenges and pressures faced by their children in the modern world, while children should respect the wisdom and experiences of their elders.Furthermore, it is important for both generations tofind common ground and engage in activities that they both enjoy. By spending quality time together, they can build stronger bonds and develop mutual respect for each other. Additionally, parents should strive to keep up with the latest technological advancements and social trends, while children should show patience and empathy towards their elders.In conclusion, the generation gap is a common phenomenon that can lead to misunderstandings and conflicts between the younger and older generations. However, by fostering open communication, understanding, and mutual respect, both generations can bridge the gap and build stronger relationships with each other. It is important for both the younger and older generations to make an effort to understand each other's perspectives and find common ground. Only by working together can they overcome the challengesposed by the generation gap and create a harmonious and inclusive society.代沟。
代沟的意思是什么

代沟的意思是什么代沟的意思:指年轻一代与老一代在思想方法、价值观念、生活态度、兴趣爱好方面存在的心理距离或心理隔阂。
由20世纪60年代末美国人类学家M.米德在所著《代沟》中提出。
狭义指父母子女之间的心理差距或心理隔阂。
代沟主要存在于一般成人与年轻人两代人之间,父母与子女之间的差异并不是不可避免的。
英文解释generation gap ;[generation gap] 指两代人之间在人生观、理想,生活方式等方面的隔阂详细解释指两代人心灵之间的鸿沟。
《十月》1981年第四期:“现在有一个新名词,叫做‘代沟’。
据说是从日文转译过来的。
意思是指两代人之间有一条鸿沟。
”《花城》1981年第六期:“我主要是因为发现在曾蔷玫问题上咱们父子间有一条很深的代沟,我很不安。
”来源“代沟”(generation gap)一词从英文直译过来,由著名女性人类学家玛格丽特·米德所创用,由于译法贴切而新颖,加上易于记忆,所以马上成了常用语。
从翻译的角度上看,比起原来的用语“世代隔阂”,“代沟”确是优胜一些。
现代翻译的趋势看来是以短语占了上风,文绉绉的累赘译法似乎是落伍了。
generation gap一词的出现并不久,大约是六十年代后期的事。
generation是一个总称语,指一代人。
它所指的一“代”,大约是二十五到三十年之间,没有定限。
gap一字的原义,则是缺口、裂缝或鸿沟,抽象一点的意思是指个性、意见等方面的歧异。

parents say that children do not show them proper respect and obedience, while children complain that their parents do not understand them. this phenomenon is often referred to as the generation gap. what then are the causes of the generation gap?one important cause of the generation gap is the chance that young people have to choose their way of life. in more traditional societies, when children grow up, they are epected 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 modern society, young people often travel a great distance for their education, move out of the family 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 the easily changing society, parents often epect 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 desire that parents have for their children are another cause of the disagreement between them. often, they discover that they have very little in common with each other.finally, the speed at which changes take place in modern society is another cause of the gap between the generations. in a traditional culture, elderly people are valued for their wisdom,but in modern 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 future of our life for some time to come. its causes are rooted in the changes of our society, and in the rapid speed at which society changes.。

代沟的定义英语解释

代沟的定义英语解释Definition of Generation GapGeneration gap is a difference in attitudes, values, and ideas between two generations, typically between parents and their children. The term “generation gap” was first coined in the 1960s and has continued to be used as a way to describe the constant conflicts that arise between different age groups.Step-by-Step ExplanationStep 1: AttitudesA generation gap exists when two generations have different attitudes towards a particular issue. For example, parents who grew up in the 1980s may be more conservative and traditional in their views on social issues, while their children who grew up in the 2000s may be more liberal and open-minded.Step 2: ValuesGeneration gap can also be seen in differences in values between generations. Every generation has their own set of values that are shaped by their social, cultural andhistorical experiences. These values can differ between parents and children, especially when it comes to relationship, career recommendations, educational choices, and standards of success.Step 3: IdeasIdeas represent a third distinguishing factor between generations. Different generations have their own ideas of morality, what is right and wrong, and what constitutesacceptable behavior. One generation may consider a particular idea as a norm, and another generation may reject it entirely.Step 4: ImpactGeneration gap can have a significant impact on relationships between different generations. Parents may struggle to understand the interests and preferences of their children, while children may feel misunderstood by their parents. These conflicts may lead to miscommunication, lackof trust, and even estrangement between generations.Step 5: ManagementTo manage generation gap, it is important to foster communication and understanding between different generations. Parents and children can learn to respect each other's differences, share their experiences openly, and establish healthy communication channels.ConclusionTo sum up, generation gap refers to the differences in attitudes, values, and ideas between two generations. It can cause conflicts and misunderstandings, but it's possible to manage it through open communication and mutual respect. By learning to understand and respect each other's differences, families can stay connected and strengthen theirrelationships.。

GenerationGap(代沟)generation gapa few years ago it was fashionable to speak of a generation gap. parents complained that children didn’t show them proper respect and obedience, while children complained that their parents didn’t understand them at all. many critics argue that it is built into the fabric of our society.one cause of the generation gap is the opportunity that young people have to choose their own life. in traditional socieries, children live in the same area as their parents, marry people their parents know and approve of, and often continue the family occupation. in our society, people often move out of the home at an early age, marry or live with people their parents have never met, and choose occupations that are rather different.in our upwardly mobile society, parents often expect their children to be better than them. however, these ambitions for their children are another cause of the division between them. often they discover that they have very little in common.finally, the speed of change in our society is another cause of it. in a traditional culture, people are valued for their wisdom, but in our society the knowledge of a lifetime may become out of date. 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 our life for some time to come. its causes are rooted in the freedoms and opportunities of our society, and in the rapid pace at which society changes.代沟几年前,代沟是一个非常流行的词。
