【答案解析】[解析] 29-31
Most Americans enjoy moving from one place to another.They are always in constant motion.For example,they often drive their automobiles 120 to 160 kilometers away just to have dinner with a friend or even fly to Europe just for watching a football match.In some states,only one house out of five has people living in it for more than five years.One maybe born in one city,and go to school in another.He may finish his middle school education in two or three cities,and then attend a college far across the country. When he has entered business,he may possibly move from job to job.Moving from job to job,which is called“job-hopping”,is a very common practice in the United States.Job—hopping does good to workers, because every chance to change a job gives them an opportunity to move up to a higher position and to get better pay.And)ob—hopping also gives employers,bosses and managers the chance to benefit from the new ideas and skills that different people bring to their firms and factories.It is quite common for an American to change his job four or five times in his life.
