Can you remember a world before the Internet? If you answer is “no” then you are probably a millennial．Millennials are the new generation of young Americans．They were born between l982 and l992．There are 33 million of them，and they are just starting to enter the workforce（劳动力）．Many experts believe that millennials are different from young Americans of past generations．They also believe that millenials will change the workforce in important ways．

How are millennials different? They are the first generation born in the computer age．The internet has always been a part of their lives．They spend about l 6 hours a week on the Internet，and this doesn’t include e-mail．And they spend 72 hours a week using other electronic media（媒体），including mobile phones and video games．They are “nation speakers” of the language of the computer age．People who were born earlier will never be native speakers of that language．Why not? They did not grow up “speaking” it．

How will millennials change the workforce? To answer that question，it is important to understand how millennials use the Internet．They use the Internet to communicate．They visit website such as FaceBook and MySpace every day．They share（分享）ideas，music， information，games，and friendships with people all over the world．When they start working，they will want to share their work and ideas with others．

It is also important to understand the way millennials grew up．Their parents and teachers gave them a lot of attention．They taught them that their opinions were valuable（有价值的）．As a result，many millennials are very confident．At work，they will expect their co-workers and bosses to listen to their opinions．

Millennials also grew up with a lot of structure in their lives．Many of them went to school from the age of two or three and played on sports teams．At work，they will expect the rules to be clear．They will also expect a strong but fair boss，like a coach on a sports team．They will follow the person in charge（主管）if he or she is fair．But they will not follow an unfair boss．They will also expect their work to be fun and creative，similar to their experience on a sports team．

These are a few of the changes that experts believe millennials will bring to the American workforce．But the world is changing very fast．There will probably be more changes that are difficult to imagine today．

My 10-year-old Donna said, "Mom, I made a new friend at school today. Can she come over tomorrow?" Donna was a shy girl and I wanted her to make some friends to bring her out of her shell.

"Sure, honey, that sounds great." I said, thinking back to my own best friend, Lillian. We lived across the street from each other in Washington Heights, New York. We met at the age of 10, too. Like my daughter, I was shy, but Lillian drew me out. She was one of the friendliest people in school, with shiny black hair and a mile-wide smile.

In senior high school, Lillian went on a trip to Florida. This was the first time we had to be away from each other for a few days. "I'll be back soon." she told me. But three days later, Lillian's sister told me that she had fallen into a river and hadn't come out any more. Soon, my family moved to New Jersey. Whenever I thought of her, tears came into my eyes.

The next day Donna brought her new friend home. "Hi, Mrs. Loggia." the little girl said. Her hair was so shiny and black and she shot me a big smile. "My name is Laura."

My daughter's new friend was so much like Lillian. I was still puzzled (迷惑) when Laura's mom came to pick her up later that afternoon. I opened the door to let her in. "Judy!" she cried. "It's me, Lillian's sister, from Washington Heights." Yes, my daughter's friend looked familiar. She was Lillian's niece (侄女).

Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents， however， it is not true. Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. if it’s hard for you to communicate with your parents， don’t worry about it. Here is some advice for you to bridge the generation gap (代沟).Don’t argue with your parents. Don’t get to your parents when you are angry.Your parents probably won’t consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can’t express yourself well if you are angry. Go to someplace to cool off (冷静下来). Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don’t think you can speak to them at the moment， try writing a letter.

Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael’s mother didn’t agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle， but only drove it on certain days.

Of course， your parents might refuse to compromise on something . In these situations， it is especially important to show love and respect(尊重)to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.

Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about， and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life.

A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person .It is worth having a try!
