问题    Emily wanted to see other people. Stuart had enjoyed a string of short-term relationships but realized that he needed more commitment. After years of uncertainty and making do, Fiona decided to follow her heart. Most found the decision emotional and stressful and felt guilty. Some worried that they were being superficial—but freely admitted they were leaving for the money.
   The stress of ending their relationship with an academic research career was difficult for these young scientists and others. Most of them, after a while, realized that they had made the right decision. Still, a few later regretted what they decided had been a toohasty exit, and wanted to patch things up. Such is life.
   【F1】Most importantly, all these people believe that they have learned from the experience and want to help others—people like you—who might be experiencing or considering a break-up. Their advice is the same as that offered by friends, family and advice columnists for centuries: if you’re not happy, then it’s not right.
   【F2】Produced by the Careers Research and Advisory Centre in Cambridge, UK, with help from others, the report What Do Research Staff Do Next? analyses survey responses of hundreds of former full-time academic researchers from across Europe who left to pursue other careers. Forget the redundant cliches. These were no "failures" or people who "couldn’t cope with the pace". More than three-quarters of them had published as a principal author and one-fifth had published a paper in a high-impact journal. One-quarter had managed to secure a competitive grant.
   Nor were they wide-eyed youngsters, rudely put in their place by the reality of the workplace. Most were in their thirties and almost one-third had a decade’s experience. 【F3】They changed their minds for three main reasons: they wanted better long-term prospects, they wanted more job security and they were no longer prepared to be employed on short-term and fixed contracts.
   In most cases, they got what they wanted. More than four in five were satisfied in their new jobs. Many had managed to stay in touch with science, and worked in a related function such as administration, outreach or publishing.
   Science should wish them well.【F4】As Nature has pointed out a regular flow of bright highly trained and scientifically literate workers heading into the wider world can only benefit society and science. 【F5】It is time to normalize these sideways steps, and for universities, senior scientists and research funders to accept and embrace the different paths that young researchers choose to follow. In most cases, the survey shows that these scientists were not forced out: they made an active choice to head elsewhere. And the outside world was delighted to have them.
【F1】
选项
答案无论如何，他们都认为自己从转行的经历中学到了很多，并且想用自己的经验去帮助那些正准备转行或者想要尝试其他工作的人——这才是最重要的。
解析 ①本句为复合句，主句含有并列的两个谓语。主句主语all these people指代上文提到的那些“转行的科研人员”。②主句第一个谓语believe后接宾语从句。在该宾语从句中，learn from表示“从……中学习”，the experience指他们从转行这件事得到的经验。③主句第二个谓宾结构中，破折号之间的内容是同位语，补充说明others；该谓宾结构后接一个定语从句；在这个定语从句中，experience作动词表示“经历”,consider表示“考虑”，break-up通常指情侣分手，这里比喻“放弃科研工作、转行”；might be experiencing or considering a break-up表示“可能正准备转行或者考虑要转行”。
