问题     As an immigrant to North American, you will need to ensure that employers and organizations such as colleges and universities properly recognize your international credentials. These may be trade certificates, but also educational qualifications such as degrees or diplomas, that you have completed or partially-completed.
    It is common for hiring personnel to have little or no training in evaluating an academic background earned outside of North America. But at the same time, employers see formal education as very important when hiring. Education is a hiring requirement for 60% of employment opportunities, but 40% of human resources staff say that if they do not know a lot about the value of documents attained elsewhere, they will not recognize them.
    Research has shown that sometimes immigrants start with a lower salary level than people who have completed their training in North America. You may want to apply for employment opportunities with companies whose staff understands your situation or more importantly, who know where to send you to get your North American credentials. If you need to complete your training in North America, apprenticeships leading to skilled trades are in high demand. Apprenticeship training is a hands-on program where about 10% is in a classroom setting at community colleges, and 90% of the training is on-the-job. The training involves working for an employer and earning income during the training period. Sometimes there is a limit of 5 years for training. You may be able to use this training toward college or university credits or education. There is a good potential for long-term job security after completion of apprenticeship training.
    If you earned your papers outside of North America, you will need to get them translated if you want to work or study. It is important for you that your education is assessed by an accredited assessment service when you are applying for jobs, and particularly if the job posting has an education requirement. As well, it is recommended that you include a copy of the report with your cover letter. It is suggested that you provide this information early and do not wait until the time you actually meet with the employer. Getting job interviews is more 50% of the whole process of securing employment; and with an evaluation report, you want to make sure that employers are screening you "in" rather than "out".
Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

选项 A、Hiring personnel is required to have training on evaluation of overseas academic background.
B、Compared with those immigrants, those who have educated in North America are offered a higher salary.
C、Formal education is as important as working experience.
D、Human resources staff view the value of all documents as a major requirement.

答案B

解析 选项A“招聘人员被要求接受如何评估海外学术教育背景的培训”。关键词为hiring personnel,定位于第二段第一句:招聘人员没有接受如何评估海外学术教育背景的培训很正常。可知表达有出入。选项C“正式教育与工作经验同等重要”。原文第二段第二句,雇佣者在招聘时重视正式教育背景.但并没有提及工作经验。选项D“人力资源部员工将所有资历证书的价值都视为一项重要指标”。根据关键词the value ofdocuments定位至第二段最后一句,40%的从事人力资源工作的人们并不认可那些,来自其他地区,价值不明的资历证书。选项B“与移民者相比,当地完成培训的人起薪更高”。原文对应至第三段第一句sometimesimmigrants start with a lower salary level than…“相比较那些在北美地区完成培训的人员薪资标准,有时移民的起薪要更低”。因此,正确答案是B。
