The best advice young men and women can hear is“Go West”. Those who   36  to make their fortune or, at the very  37  , find good jobs have a better chance of doing so in China's western provinces   38  in the increasingly crowded eastern cities.Along the eastern coast, cities are  39  with newcomers looking for work.They seek  40  from the lowest-level unskilled jobs to the instant-millionaire Internet chance of lifetime.  41  have found the latter, and fewer ever  42.

Some 160 years ago, young men and women moved   43   into New York, Philadelphia, Boston - the United States' equivalent(相等的) of Chian's Shanghai, Guangzhou and Beijing. All of these young people were   44   for work, for riches, for fame. Few found any of them. The   45   joined the masses working hard at low-level jobs   46   to support themselves and their  47  .

Horace Greeley, a well-known American newspaper editor(编辑) of the period had   48   advice for those seeking work,“Do not, " Greeley said,“  49   in the cities! There is room and health in the country, away from the   50   of idlers(闲散者) and imbeciles(fools).Go West…"  

In the mid-19th century, when Greeley called   51   people to go west, America was just to develop its western  regions-  52   as China today. Out west, the unemployed could find jobs. 

One thing more should be   53   to Horace Greeley's advice to the youth of his time: Go west-but go   54  .
