Millennials (千禧世代) are taking telecommuting (远距离工作) to a whole new level. They view virtual foreign work experience as having equal career value to a true overseas working, a new report reveals. As a result, many are passing up foreign assignments that, in a global economy, could help them advance more quickly.
International experience ranks dead last among 15 factors that make a job attractive, according to Millennial Compass, a study of work-life attitudes by MSL Group. This would seem to come as a shock to an entire industry that has sprung up to facilitate overseas internships (实习) and work experience, as well as to global corporations that need boots on the ground in many different cultures. Still, while the younger generation of workers may prefer their iPad to a suitcase, don’t call them alienated.
Millennials say they are missing out on nothing. They believe they are gaining international experience through social media, personal networks and technology. Growing up in a world where the Internet has erased geographic boundaries, many young workers are confident in their ability to run business in a new way. As one respondent put it: "The place I get hung up on is the actual, physical overseas part of it. In such an interconnected world, I don’t necessarily think you need to literally travel across the ocean to get overseas experience."
We’ve known for years that this generation values work-life balance and a meaningful job experience, teamwork, and job mobility above rapid advancement. I respect these priorities and young workers who get the job done on their own terms. I also accept their ability to forge real bonds and relationships over the Internet. But for a group that came of age in a global economy, it seems odd that young folks would dismiss physical multi-cultural experience so readily.
The good news is that young Americans willing to tear themselves away from their family and friends for a few years can stand out and reap significant career benefits. In time, the millennial generation will be in charge and the companies they run may be more accepting of workers who see no difference between Skype and a handshake. But for now—not that Millennials care—this stay-in-my-comfort-zone attitude threatens to hold them back.
How does the author feel about young people willingly dismissing physical multi-cultural experience?
选项
A、It deserves to be respected.
B、It runs counter to global economy.
C、It is meaningful to their future advancement.
D、It is an odd way to forge personal relationships.
答案
B
解析
题干中的young people…multi-cultural experience与第4段最后一句末尾的that从句意思一致,该句说这种现象是seems odd“令人感到奇怪”。该句前半句则提到,这一代年轻人是在全球经济一体化环境下成长的,故可推断,作者认为年轻人的选择是奇怪的,因为这与全球经济一体化的情况并不相符,故B“这与全球经济一体化背道而驰”正确。
