The answer is:  

My mother is very tall but my father is even taller.

Conjunctions join clauses, words and phrases and they are usually used to avoid a sequence of short sentences. For example, <em>and, but, </em>and <em>or</em>.

In this case, the most suitable sentences to combine with a conjunction like "but" are the ones whose subjects are related (mother and father) and whose predicates have a similar structure: both describe height and one has a comparative form of the adjective tall, so they can be easily joined.

Both science fiction and beat generation authors were motivated by the reality of a modern post-war society, in which there was a possibility of a new war, which happened in Vietnam, which had a great impact on everyday life in America. While middle-aged people valued conformism, beat generation mostly blamed their parents for the state in the country, heading for a mass rebellion against such an established way of life, favoring love, peace, adopting new religions, science fiction ideas, etc. In one word, both of them motivated the political dangers of a society that values conformity and their disagreement with modern society.
