Walking across the campus of Pittsburgh's Carnegie Mellon
Univers ity one delightful spring day, I came upon a table filled
with young people chatting and enjoying the fine weather．Several
had identical blue T-Shirts with 'Trilogy @CMU" written across them —Trilogy being an Austin,
Texas-based software company with a reputation for recruiting （招聘） our top students．I walked over to the table．"Are you guys here to recruit?" I asked．"No, absolutely not," they replied firmly．"We're not recruiters．We're just hanging out, playing a little Frisbee （飞盘） with our friends．" How interesting, I thought．They've come to campus on a workday, all the way from Austin, just to hang out with some new friends．
As I later learned, they were gifted students who had inked the highest-paying deal in the history of their department．
I asked one young man why he was going to a smaller city in Texas．"The company is excellent", he told me．"There are also terrific people and the work is challenging"．Though he had several good job offers from Pittsburgh's high-tech firms and knew the city well, he said he felt the city lacked the lifestyle options, cultural diversity, and tolerant attitude that would make it attractive to him．As he summed it up: "How would I fit in here?"
What a change from my own college days, just a little more than 20 years ago, when students would put on their dressiest clothes and carefully hide any counterculture tendencies to prove that they could fit in with the company．Today, apparently, it's the company trying to fit in with the students．
These young men and their lifestyle represent a lively new force in the economy and life of America．They are members of what I call the creative class: a fast-growing, highly educated, and well-paid part of the workforce on whose efforts corporate profits and economic growth increasingly depend．They do not consciously think of themselves as a class．Yet they share a common belief that values creativity, individuality, difference, and advantage．
59．What would be the best title for the passage?
A．The rise of the creative class B．New ideas about recruitment
C．Changed working cultures D．A tale of two cities
60．Why were the young people on the university campus?
A．To get recruited in Pittsburgh．
B．To celebrate their successful recruitment．
C．To relax themselves away from work．
D．To meet their old schoolmates．
61．The underlined word "inked" in paragraph 2 probably means "____"．
A．fulfilled B．obtained C．settled D．signed
62．Which of the following best describes the author's attitude towards the young people?
A．Criticizing B．Approving
C．Disappointing D．Disgusting
63．From the passage we can infer that ____．
A．the young people prefer to work in a small quiet city
B．the high pay is the main attraction to the young people
C．Pittsburgh has many advantages over Austin
D．Pittsburgh doesn't have enough attractions to the young people
