Global warming refers to the rise in average surface temperatures on Earth. An

human use of fossil fuels, which (26) __________ carbon dioxide and other greenhouse
gases into the air. The gases trap heat within the atmosphere, which can have a range of

droughts that render landscapes more susceptible to wildfires.
While consensus among nearly all scientists, scientific organizations, and

Read the passage and choose the best answer to each of the following.
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 advise 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.
Question 31. What is the reason of the generation gap mentioned in the passage?
A. The parents assume that their personal experience in real life is true for them.
B. The parents want their children to get a good government job
C. The parents succeeded in life by following a path.
D. The parents give wrong advice to their children.
Question 32. The word “universal” means_________.
A. deserving respect, admiration, or support
B. existing everywhere or involving everyone
C. clearly very much better than what is usual
