Graduation blues 走下神坛的天之骄子？ Ge Donghua looks tired. With a tough job market at the year-end it will be a tough Spring Festival. 葛东华（音译）看上去十分疲惫。年末就业市场的不景气，注定这个春节也不会好过了。 “Looking for a job is exhausting,” said the fresh graduate from Beijing University of Technology. “We have to condescend ourselves to giving up on ideal posts and accepting average jobs. It’sdepressing.” 今年刚刚从北京科技大学毕业的葛东华说：“找工作真的让人筋疲力尽，我们不得不屈从显示，放弃那些理想的工作，接受那些平淡无奇的职位，这太让人沮丧了。” Ge’s graduation blues is shared by the majority of his peers, according to the 2013 Blue Book ofChina’s Society released by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS). The report indicatesthat 70 percent of college graduates see themselves at the mid-lower or lower level in the socialstratification. 由中国社科院（简称CASS）发布的2013年《中国社会蓝皮书》显示，葛东华与大多数同龄人可谓同病相怜，纷纷遭遇毕业低谷。该报告显示，七成大学毕业生自认处于社会的中低层或者底层。 With a growing number of college graduates considering themselves to belong to the lower levelsof society, experts suggest that students lower their expectations of the job market. |
