Megan Silsby earned a biology degree last month from Virginia Tech, and she considers herself a full-time worker even though she hasn't landed a job in this rough economy. Every day at 8 a.m., Silsby, 22, heads to a basement office in her parents' home in Chantilly, Va. All day, she searches the Internet for openings, applies for jobs, and follows up with phone calls. She has applied for more than 80 jobs, with no luck so far.B. The national unemployment rate rose to 8.2% in May as Silsby was graduating as one of the 2.6 million who got bachelor's, master's or doctoral degrees in the school year now ending. The non-partisan (无党派的) Economic Policy Institute called their labor market "grim" and said that over the previous year, unemployment among college graduates younger than 25 had averaged 9.4%, with an additional 19.1% in jobs for which they were overqualified.C. Polls show Americans in their early 20s are pessimistic about immediate job prospects but say a life at least as good as their parents' is not only possible, but likely. A Harvard University Institute of Politics survey in March and April found that more than three out of four college students expect to have a somewhat or very difficult time finding a job. And 45% expect student loans to affect their financial circumstances "a lot" after they graduate.D. Their pessimism is based on the experiences of the 20-somethings just ahead of them. A Rutgers University study this spring of about 400 graduates who received bachelor's degrees from 2006 to 2011 found that 51% were working full time. The rest were in graduate school, unemployed, working part time or no longer in the job market. One in four was living with parents. Those who got jobs beginning in 2008, the height of the Great Recession, earned a starting salary, on average, 10% less than those graduates who entered the job market in 2006 and 2007, according to the Rutgers survey. All this has happened as the total amount of student loan debt in the USA surpassed $900 billion.E. Labor Secretary Hilda Solis says the level of student debt concerns her and acknowledges that the job market "is very competitive" for college graduates. However, she says the recession has reconfirmed the value of having a college degree in a globally competitive job market. And she argues that things are looking up. Citing Labor Department statistics, she says that at the beginning of the recession, there were seven applicants for every job opening. Now, she says, there are 3.4.F. Some recent graduates say they have landed jobs by starting early, networking, taking multiple internships and breaking through Internet screens with personal connections. "Many Millennials are missing the main point with their first job," says Jim Davis, who landed a job at a Des Moines marketing firm right out of Drake University last year. "It should be a focus during college to attain experience – job shadows, internships – and build their networks. Part of this falls on universities as well, pushing degrees instead of experience."G. There is little doubt that the resilience (恢复力；适应力) of recent college graduates is "being tested as they struggle with student debt, a slow job market that offers few toeholds in their chosen careers and fears about a lack of preparation for global labor market competition," says Carl Van Horn, director of Rutgers' Heidrich Center for Workforce Development, who conducted the survey of graduates since 2006. "The reality is that even though they are striving for stability, they won't find it," Van Horn says, citing global competition for jobs. "For the foreseeable future, the labor market will remain volatile (反复无常的) , and that will be their experiences. My gut feeling is that this will mark this group of people for a long period of time in the way they approach things – their concerns about job security, their anxiety – in the same way that the Depression marked people through that period."H. The economy has forced young Americans "into a whole different perspective", says Ashley Dell, 27, who has two master's degrees – one in pop culture and the other in business administration – but has been unable to get a foothold in academia, where she'd like to eventually be a college dean. In Wauseon, Ohio, she works as a manager for a national office supply company that she would not identify. She lives with her mother and says she and her friends are delaying settling-down questions on careers and parenthood. "That is going to impact our generation," Dell says. "We will have children later in life."I. In this tough environment, some college-educated applicants are second-guessing their choices of majors, too. "I am optimistic that I am going to find a job, but if I could go back and do it all over again, I would specialize in a certain degree field", such as agriculture or finance, says Brett Lutmer, who recently received a master's degree in sports administration and leadership from Augustana College in Sioux Falls, S.D. He applies for an average of one or two jobs a day. "To be honest, I am looking just for a job to get experience," he says.J. Some are going back for a second career after failing to launch a first. Amber Morris, 26, of Shreveport, La., has not been able to find a job in her field since she got a biology degree from Louisiana State University-Shreveport in 2008. She lives at home, is thankful she got her first degree without debt and has cobbled part-time jobs at a state disabilities office and at a casino. In job interview after job interview in her field, employers want experience. "I have a degree, but I can't do anything with it," Morris says. So she is going back to nursing school in the fall and will work her way through, even if it takes longer. She says she has read too many stories about kids with big loans and no job. Morris has readjusted her expectations. "I thought I would be on my own by now, would already have my career," she says.1. American youths have to change their views on life because of gloomy economic situation.2. A graduate with biology degree failed to find a job in her field because she was short of working experience to which all employers attach much importance in this field.3. According to an official in the Department of Labor, the fierce job market is changing for the better.4. Silsby believed she could find a job as she expected even though she failed in numerous of attempts to apply for jobs.5. According to Carl Van Horn, owing to the changeable and competitive job markets as well as student debt, recent graduates may face serious challenges and lack the sense of safety.6. Some graduates would reconsider and choose a certain major good for finding a job if they could start their college education again.7. The gloomy labor market didn't put some graduates with high degrees at an advantage in seeking new jobs.8. Some graduates benefited from attaining working experience by means of taking numerous internships and earlier preparation for looking for jobs.9. Graduates during the height of the Great Recession accepted lower pay in their new jobs.10. Surveys show that in a long run, it is likely for young Americans at their 20s to live as good life as their parents.
