Read the passage and choose the best option to answer each of the following questions.

The generation gap between the parents and the children is due to the fact that the parents have experienced real life and whatever they have learned from personal experiences becomes a true knowledge for them . Suppose that they have succeeded in life by following a path , they may want their children to follow the same path for success . For example , if they have worked very hard in studies and got a good government job , they may advice their children to do the same for a having a good life as them . This also happens in other dimensions . The parents tend to treat their personal experiences as universal knowledge , which is false . What work for one person may not work for any other person because people have different talents and aptitudes . Moreover , the times have changed in the new generation and now a number of new avenues and challenges have come about which your parents have no idea or experience . The children have no experience of the real life , hence they take a fresh look of everything in life . They may be guided by the experiences of their parents but they are also guided by the experiences of other people and by their own desires , talents and aptitudes . They want to experiment with their life and discover their own path . However , parents love their children so much that they don't want them to suffer failure . They want them to be safe by following their path which is tested by them . This difference of opinion gives rise to the so - called generation gap .

What is the reason of the generation gap mentioned in the passage?

• The parents assume that their personal experience in real life is true for them

• The parents want their children to get a good government job

• The parents succeeded in life by following a path

• The parents give wrong advices to their children

Read the passage and decide whether the statements are True(T)or False(F)

A generation gap refers to the chasm that separates the thoughts expressed by members of two different generations . More specifically , a generation gap can be used to describe the differences in actions , beliefs , and tastes exhibited by members of younger generations , versus older ones . The subjects at hand may be vast and varied but can include politics , values , and pop culture . While generation gaps have been prevalent throughout all periods of history , the breadth of differences of these gaps has widened in the 20th and 21st centuries . Generation gaps play big roles in businesses because , in order to succeed , companies must find ways to balance the needs and views of individuals from different age groups . Businesses must be cognizant of the fact that changing demographics of their client base , including the typical genders of their patrons , can drastically affect their business cycles and bottom lines . The term " generation gap " was first used in the 1960s . During that time , the younger generation in question commonly referred to as " baby boomers " -showed a significant difference in their beliefs and opinions , compared to that of their parents ' generation . Sociologists use nomenclature to refer to different generational segments . For example , millennials , which are those individuals born between 1982 and 2002 , are called " technology natives " because they have lived with digital technology their entire lives , and this is all they've ever known . By contrast , older generational members , known as " digital immigrants , " tend to be less comfortable with personal usage of technology . Consequently , technology companies market products differently to each group .
