Yours, Li Hua 第二节 概要写作（满分 25 分） 阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇 60 词左右的内容概要。 “I think Im nothing more than a dead fish.” “I dont want to do anything.” “Im so beat and so sad.” The young generation in our country used to enjoy their “happy culture” but now they have become “beat and
41、 sad” slowly and secretly. Some people even called it “the beat culture”. The “beat” youths dont want to do anything. They have no purpose, no desire and they are totally depressed and they only want to live an aimless life. The song “I feel like having been drained” is the example. Many media conce
42、rn themselves about this phenomenon and try to persuade the youths into embracing positive and healthy feelings and encourage them to work hard to get rid of decadence. This is really a kind gesture. However, we dont have to worry too much about “the beat culture”. In fact, its not a negative thing.
43、 “Beat” never means despair, but a way of self-mockery（自嘲） and pressure relief. In general, the youths in China are not “beat”. According to a recent international research, the youths in China hold positive attitude towards the future. 29% of the Chinese interviewees believe they will live and work
44、 in peace in China because “as long as you work hard, you can have your own day”. Around 93% of the Chinese interviewees believe the future is promising because of medicine industry, renewable energy sources and computer. Compared with Chinese youngsters, youths in developed countries are more pessi
45、mistic. Of course there are some social reasons for the appearing of “the beat culture”. As urbanization develops rapidly, youths living in big cities are facing new challenges that their forefathers have never encountered before. Loneliness and feelings of insignificance and powerlessness are easy to get a hold of the young people. Without proper care, they could threaten the youths mentality and cause many social problems. These problems probably need our attention more. 高中英语 必修第二册 9 / 16 _ _ _ _ _ _
