If you know exactly what you want, the best route to a job is to get specialized training. A recent survey shows that companies like graduates in such fields as business and health care who can go to work immediately with very little on-the-job training.
That’s especially true of booming fields that are challenging for workers. At Cornell’s School of Hotel Administration, for example, bachelor’s degree graduates get an average of four or five job offers with salaries ranging from the high teens to the low 20s and plenty of chances for rapid advancement. Large companies, especially, like a background of formal education coupled with work experience.
But in the long run, too much specialization doesn’t pay off. Business, which has been flooded with MBAs, no longer considers the degree an automatic stamp of approval. The MBA may open doors and command a higher salary initially, but the impact of a degree washes out after five years.
As further evidence of the erosion (销蚀) of corporate (公司的) faith in specialized degrees, Michigan State’s Scheetz cites a pattern in corporate hiring practices, although companies tend to take on specialists as new hires, they often seek out generalists for middle and upper-level management. "They want someone who isn’t constrained (限制) by nuts and bolts to look at the big picture," says Scheetz.
This sounds suspiciously like a formal statement that you approve of the liberal-arts graduate. Time and again labor-market analysts mention a need for talents that liberal-arts majors are assumed to have: writing and communication skills, organizational skills, open-mindedness and adaptability, and the ability to analyze and solve problems. David Birch claims he does not hire anybody with an MBA or an engineering degree, "I hire only liberal-arts people because they have a less-than-canned way of doing things," says Birch. Liberal-arts means an academically thorough and strict program that includes literature, history, mathematics, economics, science, human behavior—plus a computer course or two. With that under your belt, you can feel free to specialize. "A liberal-arts degree coupled with an MBA or some other technical training is a very good combination in the marketplace," says Scheetz.

David Birch claims that he only hires liberal-arts people because______.
选项
A、they are more capable of handling changing situations
B、they can stick to established ways of solving problems
C、they are thoroughly trained in a variety of specialized fields
D、they have attended special programs in management
答案
A
解析
本题属于细节推断题。文章提到David Birch是在最后一段,“I hire only liberal—arts people because they have a less—than—canned way of doing things”,这里的because 从句已经说出了原因,本题考查的就是对这句话的理解。“way of doing things”(做事情的方式),由此可以估计,原因大体上是某种特别的做事的方式,基本可以把C和D排除,因为它们与方式无关。“less—than-canned”,这是一个临时自造的词,字典里没有,我们只能通过分析它的构成来猜测意思。can除了作为情态动词表示“能够”之外,还可以作为实意动词表示“用罐头装”,这里是被动式,说明是实意动词形式,canned就是做成了罐头的意思。做事情时头脑像被装进罐头一样,说明是死脑筋、墨守成规。David Birch先生最不喜欢的就是这种人,反过来,他喜欢的就是脑筋灵活、思路开阔的人。A的说法与此一致,B的说法与此相反。所以应该选A。
