Students are graduating with a variety of skills and interests, but often find themselves U U 4 /U /Uwhen it comes to choosing an ultimate career goal.In a study, Schwartz observed decision-making among college students during their U U 5 /U /Uyear. Based on answers
26、 to questions regarding their job-hunting U U 6 /U /Uand career decisions, he divided the students into two groups: “maximizers“, who consider every possible option, and “satisficers“, who look until they find an option that is good enough.You might expect that the students who had undertaken the mo

Schwartz found that while maximizers U U 8 /U /Ubetter-paying jobs than satisficers on average, they werent as happy with their decision.The reason why these people feel U U 9 /U /Uis that a

Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.Minority ReportAmerican universities are accepting more minorities t
40、han ever. Graduating them is another matter.ABarry Mills, the president of Bowdoin College, was justifiably proud of Bowdoins efforts to recruit minority students. Since 2003 the small, elite liberal arts school in Brunswick, Maine, has boosted the proportion of so-called under-represented minority
41、students in entering freshman classes from 8% to 13%. “It is our responsibility to reach out and attract students to come to our kinds of places,“ he told a NEWSWEEK reporter. But Bowdoin has not done quite as well when it comes to actually graduating minorities. While 9 out of 10 white students rou
42、tinely get their diplomas within six years, only 7 out of 10 black students made it to graduation day in several recent classes.B“If you look at who enters college, it now looks like America,“ says Hilary Pennington, director of postsecondary programs for the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, which h

Now it stands 10th. For the first time in American hi
44、story, there is the risk that the rising generation will be less well educated than the previous one. The graduation rate among 25- to 34-year-olds is no better than the rate for the 55- to 64-year-olds who were going to college more than 30 years ago.DStudies show that more and more poor and non-wh
45、ite students want to graduate from collegebut their graduation rates fall far short of their dreams. The graduation rates for blacks, Latinos, and Native Americans lag far behind the graduation rates for whites and Asians. As the minority population grows in the United States, low college graduation
46、 rates become a threat to national prosperity.EThe problem is pronounced at public universities. In 2007 the University of Wisconsin-Madisonone of the top five or so prestigious public universitiesgraduated 81% of its white students within six years, but only 56% of its blacks. At less-selective state schools, the numbers get worse. During the same time frame, the University of Northern Iowa graduated 67% of its white students, but only 39% of it
