29、eet 2.The Changing GenerationA It turns out todays teenagers arent so scary after all.Results of USA WEEKENDs Teens&Parents surveyreveal a generation of young people who get along well with their parents and approve of the way theyre beingraised.They think of their parents with affection and respect
30、.They speak with Mom or Dad when they have aproblem.Most feel that their parents understand them,and they believe their family is the No.1 priority in theirparents lives.Many even think their parents are cool!Although more than a third have an object in their rooms theywould like to keep secret from
31、 their parents,rarely is it anything more alarming than a diary or off-color(低 俗的)book or CD.B Such results may seem surprising against the background of shocking incidents that color the way the mass mediaportray the young.In October 2000,the same month the survey was taken,the Washington-based Cen
32、ter for Mediaand Public Affairs wrote in its publication Media Monitor that,in a recent month of TV news coverage of Americanyouth,just 2%of teens were shown at home,and just 1%were portrayed in a work setting.In contrast,the criminaljustice system accounted for nearly one out of every five visual b
33、ackgrounds.No wonder parents worry their ownkids might spin out of control once they hit the turbulent waters of adolescence.C The overall facts ought to reassure us.The survey shows us that todays teens are affectionate,sensible and farhappier than the angry and tortured souls that have been painte
34、d for us by stereotypes.From other sources,we alsoknow teenage crime,drug abuse and premarital sex are in general decline.We,of course,need to pay attention toyoungsters who are filled with discontent and hostility,but we should not allow these extreme cases to distort ourview of most young people.D
35、 My own research at the Stanford Center on Adolescence uses in-depth interviews with small samples ofyoungsters rather than large-scale survey.Still,in my studies and others I have read,I find the same patterns as inUSA WEEKENDS survey.Todays teenagers admire their parents and welcome parental guida
36、nce about importantmatters such as career choicethough certainly not Mom and Dads advice on matters of personal taste,such asmusic or fashion.When we ask teens to choose a hero,they usually select an older family member rather than aremote public figure.Most teens say they enjoy the company of both
37、parents and friends.E Contrary to some stereotypes,most adolescents believe they must be tolerant of differences among individuals(though they do not always find this easy in the cliquish(拉帮结派的)environment of high school).Many of themvolunteer for community service with disadvantaged people.One prev
38、alent quality we have found in teensstatements about themselves,their friends and their families is a strikingly positive emotional tone.By and large,these are very nice kids,and as the band The Who used to sing,“The kids are alright.”F How much is todays spirit of harmony a change from our more tur
39、bulent past?A mere generation ago,parent-child relations were described as“the generation gap.”Yet even then reports of widespread youth rebellion wereoverdone:Most kids in the 60s and 70s shared their parents basic values.Still,it is true that American families aregrowing closer at the dawn of this
40、 new millennium(千年).Perhaps there is less to fight about,with the country in aperiod of tranquility and the dangers of drug abuse and other unwholesome behavior well known.Perhaps in the face第 4 页 共 8 页of impersonal and intimidating globalization,a young persons family feels more like a friendly hav
41、en than anoppressive trap.And perhaps parents are acting more like parents than in the recent past.Within just the past fiveyears.I have noticed parents returning to a belief that teenagers need the guidance of elders rather than the liberal,“anything goes”mode of child-rearing that became popular i
42、n the second half of the 20th century.G But missing from all these data is the sense that todays young care very much about their country,about thebroader civic and political environment,or about the future of their society.They seem to be turning inwardgenerally in a pro-social manner,certainly wit
43、h positive benefits for intimate relationships,but too often at theexpense of a connection with the present and future world beyond,including the society they will one day inherit.H Recently,we examined more than 400 essays on the“laws of life”that teens from two communities had writtenas part of an
44、 educational program initiated by the John Templeton Foundation in Radnor,Pa.In those essays,and infollow-up interviews with a few of the teenagers,we found lots of insight,positive feeling and inspirational thinking.But we also found little interest in civic life beyond the tight circles of their f
45、amily and immediate friends.I For example,only one boy said he would like to be president when he grows up.When I was in high school,dozens in my class alone would have answered differently.In fact,other recent studies have found there has neverbeen a time in American history when so small a proport
46、ion of young people have sought or accepted leadership rolesin local civic organizations.It is also troubling that voting rates among our youngest eligible voters18-to24-year-oldsare way down:Little more than one in four now go to the polls,even in national elections,comparedwith almost twice that m
47、any when 18-year-olds were first given the vote.J In our interviews,many students viewed politics with suspicion and distaste.“Most politicians are kind of crooked(不诚实的),”one student declared.Another,discussing national politics,said,“I feel like one person cant do thatmuch,and I get the impression
48、most people dont think a group of people can do that much.”Asked what they wouldlike to change in the world,the students mentioned only personal concerns such as slowing down the pace of life,gaining good friends,becoming more spiritual,becoming either more materially successful or less materially o
49、riented(depending on the students values),and being more respectful of the Earth,animals and other people.One boy said,“Id rather be concentrating on artistic efforts than saving the world or something.”K It is fine and healthy for teens to cultivate their personal interests,and it is good news when
50、 young people enjoyharmonious relations with their family and friends.But there is also a place in a young life for noble purposes thatinclude a dedication to the broader society,a love of country and an aspiration to make their own leadershipcontributions.L In the past,the young have eagerly partic
