skates brings a
smile
to

that
roller-skating
is
excellent
exercise
．
You

a 27
attitude
toward it
．

This
description
of
roller-skating
28
the
three
components
of
an
attitude
：
affect
，
cogniti on
，
and
behavior
．
You
love
the
activity
；
it's
great
fun
．
These
feelings 29
the
affective
or
emotional
component
；
they
are
an
important
ingredient
in
attitudes
．
The
knowledge
we
have
about
the
object
constitutes
the
cognitive
component
of
an
attitude
．
You
understand
the
health 30
that
the
activity
can bring
．
Finally,attitudes have a behavioral component
．
Our attitudes 31 us to go outside
to enjoy roller
—
skating
．

Now
．
we don
’
t want
t01eave you with the 32
that these three components always work together
33
．
They
don
’
t
：
sometimes
they
clash
．
For
example
，
let
’
s
say
you
love
pizza(affective
component)
；

however,you have high cholesterol and understand(knowledge component) that eating pizza may be
bad for your health
．
Which behavior will your attitude result in
，
eating pizza or 34 it?The
answer
depends
off
which
component
happens
to
be
stronger
．
If
you
are
walking
past
a
pizza
restaurant
at
lunchtime
．
Your
emotions
and
feelings
probably
will
be
stronger
than
your
knowledge
that
pizza
may not be the best food for your health
．
In that instance
．
you have pizza for lunch
．
If you are
at home trying to decide where to go for dinner,however,the knowledge component may 35
，
and
you decide to go where you can eat a healthier meal

The Changing Generation
[A]

It
turns
out
today
’
s
teenagers
aren
’
t
so
scary
after
all
．
Results
of
USA
WEEKEND
’
s
Teens&Parents
survey reveal a generation of young people who get along well with their parents and approve of
the
way
they
’
re
being
raised
．
They
think
of
their
parents
with
affection
and
respect
．
They
speak
with Mom or Dad when they have a problem
．
Most feel that their parents understand them
．
and they
believe
their
family
is
the
No.1
priority
in
their
parents
’
lives
．
Many
even
think
their
parents
are cool!Although more than a third have an object in their rooms they would like to keep secret
from their parents
．
rarely is it anything more alarming than a diary or off- color(
低俗的
) book
or CD
．

[B]
Such results may seem surprising against the background of shocking incidents that color
the way the mass media portray the young
．
In October 2000
，
the same month the survey was taken
，
the
Washington
．
based
Center
for
Media
and
Public
Affairs
wrote
in
its
publication
Media
Monitor
that,in
a
recent
month
of
TV
news
coverage
of
American
youth
，
just
2
％
of
teens
were
shown
at
home
，
and
just
1
％
were
portrayed
in
a
work
setting
．
In
contrast
，
the
criminal
justice
system
accounted
for
nearly
one
out
of
every
lave
visual
backgrounds
．
No
wonder
parents
worry
their
own
kids
might
spin out of control once they hit the turbulent waters of adolescence
．

[C]

The
overall
facts
ought
to
reassure
us
．
The
survey
shows
us
that
today
’
s
teens
are
affectionate
．
sensible and tar happier than the angry and tortured souls that have been painted
for
us
by
stereotypes
．
From
other
sources
，
we
also
know
teenage
crime
，
drug
abuse
and
premarital
sex
are
in
general
decline
．
We
of
course
，
need
to
pay
attention
to
youngsters
who
are
filled
with
discontent and hostility,but we should not allow these extreme cases to distort our view of most
young people
．

[D]
My own research at the Stanford Center on Adolescence uses in
．
depth interviews with small
samples of youngsters rather than large
‘
scale surveys
．
Still
，
in my studies and others I have
read
，
I
find
the
same
patterns
as
in
USA
WEEKEND
’
s
survey
．
Today
’
s
teenagers
admire
their
parents
and welcome parental guidance about important matters such as career choice
—
though certainly
not Morn and Dad
’
s advice on matters of personal taste
，
such as music or fashion
．
When we ask
teens to choose a hero
，
they usually select an older family member rather than a remote public
figure
．
Most teens say they enjoy the company of both parents and friends
．

[E]
Contrary to some stereotypes
，
most adolescents believe they must be tolerant of differences
among
individuals(though
they
do
not
always
find
this
easy
in
the
cliquish(
拉帮结派的
)environment
of high school).Many of them volunteer for community service with disadvantaged people
．
One
prevalent quality we have round in teens
’
statements about themselves
，
their friends and their
families is a strikingly positive emotional tone
．
By and large
，
these are very nice kids
，
and
as the band The Who used to sing
，
“
The kids are alright
．
”

[F]

How
much
is
today
’
s
sprat
of
harmony
a
change
from
our
more
turbulent
past?A
mere
generation
ago
，
parent
。
child relations were described as
“
the generation gap
”
．
Yet even then reports of
widespread youth rebellion were overdone
：
Most kids in the
‘
60s and
‘
70s shared their parents
’
basic values
．
Still
．
it is true that American families are growing closer at the dawn of this
new millennium(
千年
)
．
Perhaps there is less to fight about
，
with the country in a period of
tranquility and the dangers of drug abuse and other unwholesome behavior well known
．
Perhaps in
the face of impersonal and intimidating globalization,a young person's family feels more like
a friendly haven than an oppressive trap
．
And perhaps parents are acting more like parents than
in
the
recent
past
．
within
just
the
past
five
years
．
I
have
noticed
parents
returning
to
a
belief
that
teenagers
need
the
guidance
of
elders
rather
than
the
liberal
．
“
anything
goes
”
mode
of
child
—
rearing that became popular in the second half of the 20th century
．
