One of the bitterest and most time-worn debates in student onion bars up and down the country is resolved as academic research confirms that in financial terms at least, arts degrees are a complete waste of time.
Getting through university boosts students’ earnings by 25%, on a weighted average, or £220,000 over their lifetime, according to Professor Ian Walker of Warwick University--but if they study Shakespeare or the peasants’ revolt instead of anatomy or contract law, those gains are likely to be completely wiped out.
The government is about to allow universities to charge students up to £3,000 a year for their degrees, arguing that it’s a small price to pay compared with the financial rewards graduates reap later in life. But Prof. Walker’s research shows there are sharp variations in returns according to which subject a student takes.
Law, medicine and economics or business are the most lucrative choices, making their average earnings 25% higher, according to the article, published in the office for national statistics’ monthly journal. Scientists get 10-15% extra. At the bottom of the list are arts subjects, which make only a "small" difference to earnings--a small negative one, in fact. Just ahead are degrees in education--which leave hard pressed teachers an average of 5% better off a year than if they had left school at 18. "It’s hard to resist the conclusion that what students learn does matter a lot; and some subject areas give more modest financial returns than others," Prof. Walker said. As an economist, he was quick to point out that students might gain non-financial returns from arts degrees: "Studying economics might be very dull, for example, and studying post-modernism might be a lot of fun." [br] Law, medical and business graduates could earn 2% more than _______.
选项
A、education graduates
B、arts graduates
C、if they hadn’t studied at the university
D、the national average income
答案
C
解析
这一段中出现厂几个比较数字,考题要求找到这些数字的参照点。从该段第2句中的the list和第3句即可以确定这一段的数字都是比较大学毕业与18岁毕业(即没读大学)收入不同所得的结果。因此选项C正确。
