Actually, this phrase has nothing to do with food or the people who make sandwiches. It refers to the generation caught in the middle, or in other words, it is the middle-aged people who support both their parents and children whether financially, physically or emotionally. According to the Healthy China 2030, the average life expectancy of Chinese people will reach 79 years which is 2 years longer than that in 2018. As people live longer, the Sandwich Generation is becoming more and more common. Becoming a part of the Sandwich Generation can affect your financial status, personal time, health, and career development. Although both men and women are involved, women are the ones who are primarily affected. Most women have common difficulties in dealing with various aspects including children, older parents, family, work, and personal well-being. Although they are encouraged to go into the workforce, nursery supply remains the biggest problem for them. But I don’t think it is an unsolvable problem. In my opinion, if the government give financial support to take care of children and parents, it will greatly reduce the burden on the Sandwich Generation.第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分）21-23 BAC【语篇导读】本文介绍了英国一个最让人有幸福感的城市Leamington Spa。生活在这里的居民都觉得这个城市能带来一种强烈的归宿感。21.
