Employers fear they will be unable recruit students with the skills they need as the economic recovery kicks in, a new survey 67.reveals.
Nearly half of organisations told researchers they were already struggling to find 68.staff with skills in science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM), 69.while even more companies expect to experience 70.shortages of employees with Stem skills in the next three years.
The Confederation of British Industry and the vocational qualifications body EDI 71.surveyed6 94 organisations across the public and 72.private sectors, which together employ 2.4 million people.
Half are 73.concerned they will not be able to fill graduate posts in the coming years, while a third said they would not be able to 74.recruit enough employees with the right A-level skills.
"75.As we move further into recovery and businesses plan 76.for growth, the demand for people with high-quality skills and qualifications will 77.intensify," said Richard Lambert, director general, CBI.
"In the future, people with qualifications in science and maths will be particularly sought after, and firms say it is already hard to find people with the right 78.technical or engineering skills. The new government must make it a top 79.priority to encourage more young people to study science-related 80.subjects."
The survey found that young people would improve their job prospects 81.if they studied business studies, maths, English and physics or chemistry at A-level. The A-levels that employers82.rate least are psychology and sociology. And while many employers don't insist on a83.particular degree subject, a third prefer to hire those with a Stem-related subject.
The research 84.highlighted worries about the lack of progress in improving basic skills in the UK 85.workforce. Half of employers expressed worries about employees' basic literacy and numeracy skills, while the biggest problem is with IT skills, 86.where two-thirds reported concerns.

以下為上海新東方版四級(jí)完型解析。
此次四級(jí)完形填空的文章來(lái)自英國(guó)《衛(wèi)報(bào)》,講的是英國(guó)高級(jí)技術(shù)人才短缺的現(xiàn)象。
其中第74題答案“recruit”在原文中反復(fù)出現(xiàn),正符合昂立考前講座中給廣大學(xué)員強(qiáng)調(diào)的“原詞首選”原則。另外這篇文章近義選項(xiàng)特別多,第67題“reveals”和第71題“surveyed”都在表達(dá)研究的結(jié)果。第70題“shortage”也和原文they will unable to recruit相呼應(yīng)。
另外,有三分之一的選項(xiàng)都在考察固定的說(shuō)法,這一點(diǎn)我們也在昂立的四級(jí)課堂上給大家反復(fù)強(qiáng)調(diào)過(guò)。如,第79題top priority表示“首要任務(wù)”,第77題the demand will intensify表示“迫切需要”都是常見(jiàn)的固定搭配。
