问题     Old people are always saying that the young are not what they were. The same【C1】________is made from generation to generation and it is always true. It has【C2】________been truer than it is today. The young are better educated. They have a lot more money to spend and enjoy more freedom. They grow up more quickly and are not so【C3】________on their parents. They think more for themselves and do not blindly【C4】________the ideals of their elders. Events which the older generation remembers vividly are【C5】________past history. This is as it should be. Every new generation is different from the one that【C6】________it. Today the difference is very【C7】________indeed.
    The old always assume that they know best for the simple【C8】________that they have been around a bit longer. They don’t like to feel that their【C9】________are being questioned or threatened. And this is precisely【C10】________the young are doing. They are questioning the assumptions of their elders and【C11】________their complacency. Office hours, for instance, are nothing more than【C12】________slavery. Wouldn’t people work best if they were given complete freedom and responsibility? Who said that all the men in the world should wear dull grey suits and convict haircuts? Why have the older generation so often used violence to solve their problems? Why are they so【C13】________and guilt-ridden in their personal lives, so obsessed with mean ambitions  and  the  desire  to  amass  more  and  more【C14】________possessions? These are not questions the older generation can【C15】________lightly. Traditionally, the young have turned to their elders for【C16】________. Today, the situation might be【C17】________. The old—if they are【C18】________to admit it— could learn a thing or two from their children. One of the biggest lessons they could learn is that enjoyment is not "sinful". Enjoyment is a principle one could apply to all【C19】________of life. It is surely not wrong to enjoy your work and enjoy your leisure; to【C20】________restricting inhibitions.
【C2】
选项 A、yet
B、already
C、never
D、just
答案C
解析 根据下文描述的现在年轻人的特点，以及下文的different(不同的)、difference(差异)，可知老人们的这句评论放到现在特别正确，故选C项never，“never+形容词比较级+than”表示“没有比……更”，代入句中意思是“今天的情形更是如此”。A项yet“但是，还”，B项already“已经”，D项just“正好，仅仅”，不适用于本句的比较级结构。
