Poll:1/3 Graduates Say University Study Wasn’t Worth it

  With the job market tightening and college enrollments expanding, over a third of young Chinese say their college study experience was not as rewarding as they had expected, according to a newspaper survey.

  The survey, published in Monday’s China Youth Daily, showed that 34.7 percent of the 8777 respondents said they regretted their university experience as what they had learnt was not worth the time and money invested.

  About 51.5 percent of the respondents said they had learnt nothing practical in university and 39.2 percent said they couldn’t land a job with a bachelor’s degree, the survey said.

  Nearly 4.13 million students graduated from China’s universities in 2006, compared with 1.15 million in 2001, the survey said.But salaries for university graduates have been declining.

  Before college enrollments exploded six years ago, university graduates could easily find a job with a monthly salary of 2500-3000 yuan.But now graduates are willing to work for just hundreds of yuan a month to find a slot in the already tight job markets, the survey said.

  67.2 percent of the polled said university study had become less rewarding after enrollments expanded.But another 44.7 percent thought it would be harder to find a job without university experience.

  About 28 percent of respondents said that, if they were to do it again, they would choose to enter a polytechnic rather than a university because today’s employers seemed to prefer practical skills.

阅读下面短文,从题中所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

  Many people would interpret “The American dream” as “living like an American”-a two-story house with a white picket fence; a family with two cars; and two children.

  However, the economic situation is now affecting the American way of life for 4.4 million people living in the US, according to new census(人口普查)data.“It's going to have a long-term impact and to say it's going to end is optimistic, ” says Cheryl Russell, former editor-in-chief of American Demographics magazine.“I'm more pessimistic that this is the new normal.”

  So what is the new normal?

  *Marrying later.The average age of the first marriage has increased to 28.7 for men and 26.7 for women, up from 27.5 and 25.9 respectively in 2006.At the same time, fewer people are getting married.If the marriage rate had stayed the same as in 2006, there would have been about 4 million more married people in 2010.

  *Fewer babies.There were 200, 000 fewer births among women aged 20 to 34 in 2010 compared with two years before.This was despite the fact that the number of women of childbearing age had gone up by more than 1 million.“The recession(衰退)is the likely cause, ” says Kenneth Johnson, demographer at the University of New Hampshire's Carsey Institue, “Economic fertility(生育能力)” because women delay …in uncertain times.

  *Breaking up is harder.The number of divorces has been falling for 25 years as people wait longer or choose to live together before they get married.There were about 65, 000 fewer divorces in 2010 than in 2008, a 7 percent decrease.

  *Crowd living.Unemployment is forcing more people to live together.The number of households where people lived with “other relatives” climbed from 6.7 percent in 2006 to 7.2 percent in 2010.

  *Going public.Private school enrollment decreased from 13.6 percent in 2006 to 12.8 percent in 2010.

  *Fewer cars.The percent age of households without a car rose to 9.1 percent against 8.8 percent in 2006.The percent-age of households with two or more cars fell from 58 percent to 57.1 percent.

  *Driving solo.When people are not working, they don't carpool.The proportion of people aged 16 to 64 in employment dropped greatly in all but one of the 50 largest metropolitan(大城市的)areas.That has helped push the share of people driving to work alone from 76 percent in 2006 to 76.6 percent in 2010.Ride-sharing is down a full percentage point, to 9.7 percent.

  If you’re away for a week or two, whatever you do, pack light.

  This especially applies if you are on a tour and are moving from place to place, when heavy luggage has to be loaded and unloaded from taxis, trains and planes.Unnecessary heavy luggage will spoil your mood before you’ve even arrived.Here are a few tips to keep your pack and your look light and carefree.

  3.Take only the necessities.Most hotels have such things as soap and shampoo now, so don’t trouble with a ton of toiletries unless you have sensitive skin.

  4.Do you really need to take that hairdryer?If you don’t want to give your hair a rest, then don’t forget to pack an adapter(转接器)to make sure you’ll still be able to use your hairdryer.

  5.Line the bottom of your suitcase with trousers, letting the legs hang over the outside edge.Then pack the rest of your travel gear(用具), with lighter materials on top.Wrap trouser legs over the pile.

  6.Use the inside of shoes to save space:put underwear, your swimsuit and a rolled up belt in them.
