Question

第二節：讀寫任務（共1小題，滿分25分）
閱讀下面的短文，然后按照要求寫一篇150詞左右的英語短文。
An Internet war of words is violent between China’s younger generations---the 1980s and the 1990s---commonly known as the “Strawberries” and the “Jellies”. It’s about values and identity, who’s patriotic and responsible, who’s spoiled.
The Strawberries see the Jellies as “self-centered and irresponsible, materialistic, spoiled kids.” while the Jellies see the Strawberries as “out-of-date.”
Retired English teacher Paul Wang has taught both the 1980s and 1990s students and worries more about kids the latter. “I worry more about the 1990s, because kids from the 1980s, although naughty and rebellious, would still listen to teachers, if not fear teachers. They have different opinions and would argue with me, but there was still respect.” Kids today are different, says Wang. “They know your salary, they know that you won’t criticize them and many of them don’t respect us any more.”
Since the earthquake on May 12th, media have shown a greater appreciation of the 1980s generation. “ We used to feel disappointed about the 1980s, but they showed unbelievable courage and energy after the earthquake and proved they are patriotic and responsible enough to support this nation. However, the 1990s generation is listless. They don’t know what they want because they have everything. They don’t care about anything else except themselves.”

One possible version:
My Opinion about the 1990s Generation
The passage shows that the 1990s generation is generally thought to care only about themselves, show no respect for teachers and lack responsibility. Meanwhile they focus too much on materials and are spoiled too.
As a member of the 1990s generation, I don’t agree with that.
Personally, I think that people’s concerns about us are unnecessary. Although we are less perfect in a way, we take everything seriously and have a clear goal to set. Besides, we never forget to express our gratitude to those who help us. Perhaps we now behave a little selfishly, but the 1980s generation, who now proves to be patriotic and responsible, was once criticized for the similar reason.
Take my own experience for example. I used to complain about the way my junior high school teacher taught me. She asked me to recite the texts and punished me if I couldn’t. When I later found myself make progress in English learning, I made an apology to her in a letter. Until now, I still go to visit her and thank her on Teacher’s Day.
