correspondingnumbered boxes provided (1 point)
The generation gap that was so in evidence during the 60s has resurfaced, but it is not the
disruptive force that it was during the Vietnam era, a 2009 study suggests The Pew Research Center study found that 79% of Americans see major differences between younger and older adults in the way they look at the world In 1969, a Gallup Poll found that a smaller percentage,74%, perceived major differences
Today, however, although more Americans see generational differences, most do not see them
asdivisive.Thatispartlybecauseoftheareasofdifference.Thetopareasofdisagreementbetween young and old,
according to the Pew Research Study, are the use of technology and taste in music Grandparents are likely
to have observed these differences in their grandchildren who are tweens, teens, and youngadults
If large differences between the generations exist, why don't they spawn conflict? The answer
is twofold
First,thetwolargestareasofdifference—technologyandmusic—arelessemotionallycharged
thanpoliticalissues.Theoldergenerationislikelytobeproudoftheyoungergeneration'sprowess intechnology rather than to view it as a problem As for the musical differences, each generation wantsits own style of music, and the older generation generally can relate to thatdesire
Second, in the other areas of difference, the younger generation tends to regard the older
generationassuperiortotheirowngeneration—clearlyadifferencefromthe1960swithitsrallying cry of "Don't
trust anyone over thirty." According to the Pew study, all generations regard older Americans as superior inmoral values, work ethic and respect forothers

On Vietnamese channelspremierea lot of Korean, Chinese, American films English songs
appear in iPods or MP3 players of many teenagers All shows the tremendous effects ofglobalization on Vietnamese life, especially Vietnamese culture
Globalization does bring convenience and comfort to Vietnamese people Now we can enjoygoods and services with high qualityandcompetitive prices as many foreign companies join ourmarket Advances in communication help eradicate geographic borders amongcountriesandtherefore connect our world Especially, globalization shortens the long-standingdistance among different cultures For example, right here in Viet Nam, we can watch latestmovies made in Hollywood; we can read famous books written by authors from US, UK, EU,Japan, China We can see the appearance of restaurants serving Thai, Italian, Japanese,American, Latin,Americanfood in big cities Moreover, globalization is fast and useful ways topresent Vietnamese culture to the wholeworld
However, that does not means globalization does no harm to the culture of our country One of
the most concerning problems caused by globalization is the dominance of foreign culture onVietnamese life Simply put, people lose their traditional values and begin to identify with theculture of dominant nations Perhaps, the most apparent and serious effect is language OurVietnamese language is facing “severe competition” from other language, especially English
