Section B

Directions: Read the following four passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements.　 For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.　 Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 (A)

　　　 If you are a recent social science graduate who has had to listen to jokes about unemployment from your computer major classmates, you may have had the last laugh.　 There are many advantages for the social science major because this high-tech “information Age” demands people who are flexible and who have good communication skills.

　　　 There are many social science majors in large companies who fill important positions.　 For example, a number of research studies found that social science majors had achieved greater managerial success than those who had technical training or pre-professional courses.　 Studies show that social science majors are most suited for change, which is the leading feature of the kind of high speed, high-pressure, high-tech world we now live in.

　　　 Social science majors are not only experiencing success in their long-term company jobs, but they are also finding jobs more easily.　 A study showed that many companies had filled a large percentage of their entry-level positions with social science graduates.　 The study also showed that the most sought-after quality in a person who was looking for a job was communication skills, noted as “very important” by 92% of the companies.　 Social science majors have these skills, often without knowing how important they are.　 It is probably due to these skills that they have been offered a wide variety of positions.

　　　　 Finally, although some social science majors may still find it more difficult than their technically trained classmates to land the first job, recent graduates report that they don’t regret their choice of study.
