20、 law(3)A study suggests that the United States needs to work on training and keeping scientists. Since 1980, the number of jobs that need science and engineering (S&E) knowledge has increased. And each year in the US, the number of jobs that need S&E skills increases by 5%. In the next 20 years, man
21、y talented people with S&E knowledge will retire, because more than half of them now are in their 40s or older and 30% of them are 55 or older. Therefore, to have enough talented people, universities need to train students in S&E. Yet fewer and fewer students are choosing jobs in S&E. In other words
22、, there are not enough new talented people to take the place of the retiring ones, so there will be a gap in the future. In the past, the US filled this gap with foreign talented people. These people came to the US to study and got their doctorates (博士学位) from American universities. Many of them liv
23、ed in the US to use their science skills . In 2001, foreign talented people not more than half of the doctorates in S&E in this country. But the US cant only depend on foreign talented people.

As it turned out, the experience I got at the
29、hospital taught me the opposite: my future was not in vet medicine. However, there is one particular Saturday morning that taught me something maybe more important. The hospital was in the middle of one of the poorer sections of the city and we often had people come in who could just only pay for th
