42.The topic of China's "slash youth"(斜杠青年) has become hot on social media recently,drawing attention to the different pursuits(追求) of the younger generation. The slash youth means those who refuse to be accepted by just one personal identity(身份).They like to present themselves as different identities,such as a nurse and model,a teacher and excellent singer,and an engineer and band player.Rather than comfortable life,they pursue meaningful achievement. A different career can make them develop new experiences and talents.What's more,they can get other people's recognition(承認) and they can have a sense of satisfaction themselves. A study on "slash youth" published in the China Youth Research magazine talks about the background of this phenomenon(現象):with part of modern society's usual organization and stability norms(穩(wěn)定的規(guī)范) are broken,flexible labor(靈活的勞動力) markets has appeared.Young people also face the difficult time of self-development,including the sense of powerlessness,lost sense of value in the job,which forces them to re-find the meaning of work. "The slash life shows that our society is changing better and better in some ways,and it welcomes everyone's self-development," said Shi Yanrong,an associate researcher from Tianjin Academy of Social Sciences. "Young people no longer have to depend on work and money for their sense of self-development.They would like to create their own identities." The researcher added that against the background that people have different interests and are willing to pay for these interests nowadays,the slash life of the youth would drive the growth of a new economy(經濟) and its development.
