More college graduates in China are seeking for work experience instead of advanced degrees, a survey shows. The practical approach, coupled with a record number of students graduating from college, is expected to strengthen competition in the job market, analysts said.
More than 76 percent of university students said they wanted to work after earning their degrees this summer, up from 68.5 percent in 2012 and 73.6 percent last year, according to poll results from Zhaopin.com, a major online agency, Zhu Bo.
The annual survey also shows that about 20 percent university graduates chose to further education after graduation, while about 3 percent wanted to start their own businesses.
Zeng Hao ,a 25-year-old media major, managed to land a job in a publishing company in Zhongshan, Guangdong province, before he received his master's degree from the University of Macau in June. " Work experience really matters in the publishing industry" he said.
Wei Guihong , a program administrator at Nanjing University, said about 60 percent of the school's graduates entered the labor market every year. “More and more students majoring in a foreign language choose to go abroad to continue their studies to improve their language skills," she said continuously, "That's perhaps a bright future.”
Liu Junsheng , a researcher at the Labor and Wage Institute of the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, believes that economic conditions play a vital role in shaping college graduates' choices .“There were fewer job opportunities in the market. ” he said. "Although academic degrees still matter, more and more employers value job seekers' work experience." he said.
The Zhaopin.com survey shows that each of the graduates sent resumes(履历) on average to about 28 potential employers and received five interview opportunities.

Does money buy happiness?Not!Ah, but would a little more money make us a little happier?Many of us smirk(傻笑,假笑) and nod.There is, we believe, some connection between financial fitness and emotional fulfillment.Three in four American college students—nearly double the 1970 proportion— now consider it “very important” or “essential” that they become “very well off financially”.Money matters.
But a surprising fact of life is that in countries where nearly everyone can afford life’s necessities, increasing wealth matters surprisingly little.The connection between income and happiness is “surprisingly weak,” observed University of Michigan researcher Ronald Inglehart in one 16-nation study of 170,000 people.Once comfortable, more money provides diminishing returns(报酬递减).The second piece of pie, or the second $100,000, never tastes as good as the first.Even lottery winners and the Forbes’ 100 wealthiest Americans surveyed by University of Illinois psychologist Ed Diener have expressed only slightly greater happiness than the average American.Making it big brings temporary joy.But in the long run wealth is like health: its complete absence can create suffering, but having it doesn’t guarantee happiness.Happiness seems less a matter of getting what we want than of wanting what we have.
Has our happiness, however, floated upward with the rising economic tide?Are we happier today than in 1940s, when two out of five homes lacked a shower or tub?Actually, we are not.Since 1957, the number of Americans who say they are “very happy” has declined from 35 to 32 percent.Meanwhile, the divorce rate has doubled, the teen suicide(自杀) rate has increased nearly three times, the violent crime rate has gone up nearly four times, and depression has mushroomed.Economic growth has provided no boost to human morale.When it comes to psychological well being, it is not the economy.
I call this soaring wealth and shrinking spirit “the American paradox.” More than ever, we have big houses and broken homes, high incomes and low confidence, secured rights and reduced civility.We are good at making a living but often fail at making a life.We celebrate our prosperity(繁荣) but long for a purpose.We treasure our freedoms but long for connection.In an age of plenty, we feel spiritual hunger.
1.Which of the following statements best expresses the author’s view?
A. The more money we earn, the less returns we have.
B. The more money we earn, the happier we would be.
C. In the long run, money cannot guarantee happiness.
D. In the long run, happiness grows with economy.
2.“The second $100,000 never tastes as good as the first” because _____.
A. it is not so fresh as the first $100,000
B. it is not so important as the first $100,000
C. profit brought by it is less than that from the first $100,000
D. happiness brought by it is less than that from the first $100,000
3.According to the passage, people do well in making a living but don’t _____.
A. have any primary aim
B. know how to spend money
C. know how to enjoy life
D. keep in touch with other people
4.The things that happened after 1957 are given to show that _____.
A. people’s spiritual needs cannot be fulfilled by wealth
B. family problems become more and more serious
C. young people are not happy about their life
D. social crimes have increased significantly

After Mom died, I began visiting Dad every morning before I went to work. He was frail and moved slowly, but he always had a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice on the kitchen table for me, along with an unsigned note reading, "Drink your juice." Such a gesturere, I knew, was as far as Dad had ever been able to go in expressing his love. In fact, I remember, as a kid I had questioned Mom "Why doesn't Dad love me?" Mom frowned, "Who said he doesn't love you?" "Well, he never tells me," I complained. "He never tells me either," she said, smiling. "But look how hard he works to take care of us, to buy us food and clothes, and to pay for this house. That's how your father tells us he loves us."
I nodded slowly. I understood in my head, but not in my heart. I still wanted my father to put his arms around me and tell me he loved me. Dad owned and operated a small scrap (片) metal business, and after school I often hung around while he worked. Dad hand fed scrap steel into a device that chopped as cleanly as a butcher chops a rack of ribs. The machine looked like a giant pair of scissors. with blades thicker than my father's body. If he didn't feed those terrifying blades just right, he risked serious injury. "Why don't you hire someone to do that for you?" Mom asked Dad one night as she bent over him and rubbed his aching shoulders with a strong smelling liniment. "Why don't you hire a cook?" Dad asked, giving her one of his rare smiles.
Many years later, during my first daily visit, after drinking the juice my father had squeezed for me, I walked over, hugged him and said, "I love you, Dad." From then on I did this every morning. My father never told me how he felt about my hugs, and there was never any expression on his face when I gave them.
1.The author's father always prepared a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice for him because ____.
A. that was the author's favorite
B. he was sure the author would be thirsty
C. the author was always complaining
D. that was a gesture of love
2.The author's father didn't hire a helper because ____.
A. his job was too dangerous
B. his job required high skills
C. he wanted to save money
D. he was not good at communicating with others
3. We may infer from the passage that ____.
A. the author's father lacked a sense of humor
B. the author quite understood his father as time went on
C. the author's father didn't love him very much
D. the author's father was too strict with him
4. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. I just couldn't understand my father
B. My father never loved me
C. Silent fatherly love
D. My hard-working father
