In a new study released by Pew, researchers find that while Millennials—people who were born after 1981—are back to the pre-recession era unemployment levels of 7.7% , they haven’t been able to establish themselves as adults in other ways, like owning a home or getting married.
Richard Fry, an economist and lead author of the study, describes the situation as Millennials’ "failure to launch. "Fry told TIME,"The group that was hit the hardest—young adults—are now getting full-time jobs and earnings are tracking upwards. But the surprise is that with the recovery in the labor market, there are fewer young adults living independently. "
When the recession hit, young people moved back into their parents’ house in droves, unemployed and without much hope for any future work. The thought process was that once the economy improved and Millennials returned to work, they’d scoot out of their parents’ lair. But that hasn’t been the case, and economists aren’t sure why.
About 42. 2 million 18-to-34 year olds are living away from home this year; 2007’s numbers were just above 2015’s independent young adult population at 42. 7 million. There are a few common characteristics of these Millennial householders; they are more likely to be women(72% compared to their male counterparts)and college-educated(86% of those with bachelor’s degrees were living independently compared to 75% of the same peer group holding only a high school education). Fry points to women getting in permanent romantic relationships earlier that either lead to marriage or cohabitation as the cause of this gender difference.
The consequences of Millennials still living at home go far beyond the household dynamics of adult children being at home with parents. Consider the housing sector, which has not recovered from the 2008 economic tumble. If more young adults had decided to take on home ownership, the economy may have improved more.
So how are Millennials most likely living if they’re not living at home? Probably with a roommate, or doubled up with a fellow adult who is not their spouse or partner, data suggests.
But having a roommate or living at home have real demographic effects for the future, Fry says. He goes back to two key facts: that people living independently tend to be better educated and that college educated people tend to delay marriage or not marry at all(though even Millennials with a high school education are not getting married as much as they used to). That means that less educated Millennials are facing consequences in not just the job market, but beyond.
Which of the following is the best title for the text?
选项
A、Young Adults Are in a Dilemma
B、Millennials Now Have Jobs but Still Live with Their Parents
C、Time for Millennials to Move out of Their Parents’ House
D、Better-Educated Millennials Are More Likely to Live Independently
答案
B
解析
主旨题。着眼全文,通篇都在讲述一个事实,即Millennials now have jobs but still livewith their parents“现在千禧一代已经找到工作,但仍然和父母住在一起”,[B]项就是全文的主要内容,也是该篇文章的主旨大意。[A]选项“年轻人处在进退两难的境地”在文中并没有体现,可排除。[C]选项过于武断,并且文章中并没有表达类似观点,可排除。[D]选项只是文中谈到的一个方面,可排除。
