W: Thanks. Oh, by the way, I'd like to get some information from you. You see, the conference I'm attending will be over early Wednesday, and I don't fly out until Thursday. Do you have any recommendations for sightseeing？
M: There's a great planetarium at our natural history museum. You might enjoy that.
W. I don't know—I don't think I want to do that. The city I come from has a good planetarium.
M: There are also some good art galleries downtown.
W: I'm more interested in doing something outdoors.
M: Oh, well, there's a beautiful waterfall called Crystal Falls not far from here.

M: Do you have a car, or will you be taking a bus？
W: I rented a car at the airport.

W: Yes, it was fantastic. Now I know why it is listed together with the Nile River as one of the great natural wonders of the world. Here, want to see the picture I took？
M: Oh, what a view! It is even bigger than I had imagined. I remember reading about the Grand Canyon and I think it said that it was formed suddenly when the earth's crust split open during an earthquake.
W: Well, not that quickly. Look, here is the picture of Colorado river. See way down at the bottom of the canyon, that fiver and its tributaries have been wearing the canyon floor away for ten million years.
M: Then the canyon is the result of swale erosion. I'll bet geologists have made some interesting discoveries here.
W: Not only the geologists, archaeologists have found the bones of extinct animals in caves in the canyon wails. In a cave one hundred and forty feet above the river, they found drift wood than dates back as far as thirty seven thousand years.
M: That means the river must have been a hundred and forty feet higher up when it carried the driftwood into the cave.
W: It's very possible, but of course who knows. The Grand Canyon is full of mysteries. Wouldn't you like to go to Arizona some day？
M: You bet I would.

Get a high school diploma, at least. Without that, you will be occupationally dead unless your name happens to be George Bernard Shaw or Thomas Alva Edison, and you can successfully dropout in grade school.
Get a college degree, if possible. With a B. A. , you are on the launching pad. But now you have to start to put on the brakes (刹车器，闸). If you go for a master's degree, make sure it is an M. B. A. , and is famous law of diminishing returns begins to take effect.
Do you know, for instance, that long-haul truck drivers earn more per year than full professors？ Yes, the average 1977 salary for those truckers was $ 24000. While the full professors managed to earn just $ 23030.
A Ph. D. is the highest degree you can get. Except for a few specialized fields such as physics or chemistry where the degree can quickly be turned to industrial or commercial purposes, if you pursue such a degree in any other field, you will face a dim future. There are more Ph. D. s unemployed or underemployed in this country than any other part of the world.
If you become a doctor of philosophy in English or history or anthropology or political science or languages or-worst of all-in philosophy, you run the risk of becoming overeducated for our national demands. Not for our needs, mind you, but for our demands.
Thousands of Ph. D. s are selling shoes, driving cars, waiting on table, and endlessly filling out applications month after month. They may also take a job in some high school or backwater college that pays much less than the janitor earns.
You can equate the level of income with the level of education only so far. Far enough, that is, to make you useful to the gross national product, but not so far that nobody can turn much of a profit on you.

A．will earn s lot of money
B．will lead a happy life
C．will become more intelligent
D．can meet the demands of society as a source of manpower
