Generation gap (代沟)

•In 1960s,American anthropologist

Margaret Mead first put forward this

word.

（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 Behavior

habits 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 or

middle-aged people say someone is "honest", that is praise him;but when a 80s or 90s say

that ,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。)

Refers to the generation gap,you will think

and only think of generation gap between parents and children.Think carefully,students and schools,workers and enterprises,individual and society,does it means that there is no generation gap?

(提到代沟，你多半会想起而且只会想起父母与孩子之间的代沟。仔细想想，学生与学校，工人与老板，个人与社会，难道就没有代沟吗？)

Once-popular movies<the year,we chased a girl together>,there are a lot of example of generation gap between students and schools. (曾经一度火热的电影《那些年，我们一起追过的女孩》里面就有好多关于学生与学校之间的代沟的例子。)

As for works and enterprises,remember the shocking Fox-com employee collective jump off building events?

(至于员工与老板之间的代沟，还记的令人震惊的富士康员工集体跳楼事件吗？)

A famous movie <The Shawshank Redemption> has such a fragment:One to 40 years in prison criminals,he had only one idea after party out, that is to return to prison.

（一部著名的电影《肖申克的救赎》里面有这样一段：一位在监狱里待了40年的罪犯，他在出来之后，心中只有一一个念头,那就是回到监狱去。）

W Not prison life more comfortable ,(otherwise,I would have went in,no longer need to make speech so hard.)but he has completely decoupled.Will not call,saw the car want to run.this is called "systemed".

（并不是监狱的生活有多舒服（不然我早进去享受了，不用再这苦逼地演讲了），而是他已经与社会完全

脱钩了，不会打电话，看见汽车就想跑。）

After "9.11 incident",the spread of terrorist around,all kinds of suicide bomings,terrorist attacks take place every day.These terrorists are not just death,but they can't communicate with society contact.

（自从9.11事件发生以来，恐怖主义四处蔓延，各种人肉炸弹，恐怖袭击事件几乎每天都在发生。这些恐怖分子并非一心求死，只是没法与社会沟通罢了。）
