Migration is usually defined as "permanent or semipermanent change o f
residence".
"This broad definition, of course, would include a move across the street
or a cross a city. Our concern is with movement between nations, not with
internal mi gration within nations, although such movements often exceed
international movem ents in volume. Today, the motives of people who move short
distances are very s imilar to those of international migrants".
Students of human migration speak of "push" and "pull" factors, which
influe nce an individual's decision to move from one place to another. Push
factors are associated with the place of origin. A push factor can be as simple
and mild a matter as difficulty in finding a suitable job, or as traumatic as
war, or sever e famine. Obviously, refugees who leave their homes with guns
pointed at their heads are motivated almost entirely by push factors (although
pull factors do in fluence their choice of destination).
Pull factors are those associated with the place of destination. Most of
thes e are economic, such as better job opportunities or the availability of
good lan d to farm. The latter was an important factor in attracting settlers to
the Unit ed States during the 19th century. In general, pull factors add up to
an apparen tly better chance for a good life and material well?being than is
offered by th e place of origin. When there is a choice between several
attractive potential d estinations, the deciding factor might be a non?economic
consideration such as the presence of relatives, friends, or at least fellow
countrymen already establ ished in the new place who are willing to help the
newcomers settle in. Consider ations of this sort lead to the development of
migration flow.
Besides push and pull factors, there are what the sociologists call
"intervenin g obstacles". Even if push and/or pull factors are very strong they
still may b e outweighed by intervening obstacles, such as the distance of the
move, the tro uble and cost of moving, the difficulty of entering the new
country, and the pro blems likely to be encountered on arrival.
The decision to move is also influenced by "personal factors" of the
potential migrant. The same push?pull factors and obstacles operate differently
on diffe rent people, sometimes because they are at different stages of their
lives, or j ust because of their varying abilities and personalities. The
prospect of packin g up everything and moving to a new and perhaps very strange
environment may app ear interesting and challenging to an unmarried young man
and appallingly diffic ult to a slightly older man with a wife and small kids.
Similarly, the need to l earn a new language and customs may excite one person
and frighten another.
Regardless of why people move, migration of large numbers of people causes
confl ict. The United States and other western countries have experienced
adjustment p roblems with each new wave of immigrants. The newest arrivals are
usually given the lowest?paid jobs and are resented by native people who may
have to compete with them for those jobs. It has usually taken several decades
for each group to be accepted into the mainstream of society in the host
country.?
1. The author thinks that pull factors ?______?.?
A. are all related to economic considerations?
B. are not as decisive as push factors?
C. include a range of considerations?
D. are more important than push factors ?
2. People's decisions to migrate might be influenced by all the following
EXCEPT ______?.?
A. personalities?B. education?
C. marital status?D. abilities ?
3. The purpose of the passage is to discuss ______?.?
A. the problems of international migrants?
B. the motives of international migrants?
C. migration inside the country?
D. migration between countries ?
答案:
1. C) 根据第三段可知pull factors不仅和economic considerations有 关,还和non?economic
considerations有关,由此可排除选项A。选项B和D在文中没有提 及,故只有C为正确答案。?
2. B) 此题为细节题。根据第五段可知惟有education没有提及。
3. B) 此题为主旨题。通过阅读该文可知文章主要是讲述促使人们在国际 间移民的因素,这与选项B相符。
