Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions.
Over the past 50 years – from the Silent Generation’s young adulthood to that of Millennials today – the
United States has undergone large cultural and societal shifts. Now that the youngest Millennials are adults,
how do they compare with those who were their age in the generations that came before them?
In general, they’re better educated – a factor tied to employment and financial well-being – but there is a
sharp divide between the economic fortunes of those who have a college education and those who don’t.
Millennials have brought more racial and ethnic diversity to American society. And Millennial women,
like Generation X women, are more likely to participate in the nation’s workforce than prior generations.
Compared with previous generations, Millennials – those ages 22 to 37 in 2018 – are delaying or
foregoing marriage and have been somewhat slower in forming their own households. They are also more
likely to be living at home with their parents, and for longer stretches.
 And Millennials are now the second-largest generation in the U.S. electorate (after Baby Boomers), a fact
that continues to shape the country’s politics given their Democratic leanings when compared with older
generations.
