Two Generations:Similarity and Difference

  Since different people are born different places and birth time, people are spontaneously divided into different generations by these conditions. There are two generations the Generation Xers who born just before or during the Vietnam War and the Generation Yers who are born between 1980 to 2000. On the whole, there are some similar parts between the Generation Xers and the Generation Yers. And both of them also exist some differences.

    One of the differences of two generations is that using cell phone and Internet. The Generation Xers and the Generation Yers like to use cell phone and Internet to work and communicate with their friends and relations because of that's more convenient and efficient. In contrast, the Generation Yers like to use these new technological products to play games what they like and do some shopping online. They prefer to choose some emerging electronic products, such as iPad, iPod and Game Boy. Both of them use the same communication tools, but their uses are little different.

    There is another area of differences between the Generation Xers and the Generation Yers. Although, they could earn money by themselves, but they have different attitudes to deal with their money. Both of the generations have their own ways to get money. Whereas the Generation Xers are cautious and conservative. In addition, the Generation Yers get money and spend it quickly. Many young people like to use the credit card to buy whay they want. They have their ways to earn money, but they'll spend it in different ways.

    Other parts of both of the generations is music. They have the same hobby, I think that all of them like to listen to music, but the different music style they choose. Music can make people feel good and relax, the Generation Yers like the music as the Generation Xers. The Generation Xers like disco and the idol is retro,like Mike Jakson. And the Generation Yers like remix music and they prefer to like the stars, like Eminem. They have the same hobby-like music, but the different music style they prefer.

   The Generation Xers and the Generation Yers: different, yet alike. Although they have some similar things, but they still have different parts between these generations. Furthermore, the differences of these generations maybe more than today in the future since the society is developing constantly.
