C., is quick to explain why he took a yearlong break from his job. “I was pretty burned out after practicing medi

34、cine for 26 years. I needed a recharge.” So he took a “gap year”, from July 2011 to June 2012, to explore things like ancient buildings, antique restoration, archaeology and traditional Eastern medicine, in locations including Alaska, Nepal and Romania.“Taking a break from work is an excellent way f

35、or adults to go into a new career or refresh an old one,” said Holly Bull, president of the Center for Interim (過渡時(shí)期) Programs in Princeton, N, J., which sets up gap-year programs. The group works mainly with college-age students, but it has also served older adults since it was formed 28 years ago.

36、 “In recent years, mid-career breaks have been gaining more interest,” she said. A report on adult gap years published this year by a market research company also described the potential American market for gap years as a “sleeping giant.”“A gap year is a challenge for the older individual to step o

37、ut of a comfort zone and take a risk. I enjoyed that side most.” said Dr. Sinar, who kept a daily blog about his experience. His time studying Eastern medicine “reaffirmed(再次肯定) the reasons I went into health care,” said Dr. Sinar, who returned to practice medicine at his old job, although he works

38、fewer days. “I use those experiences to provide my patients with more care,” he added. “And I listen better than I did before.”George Garritan, chairman of the Department of Leadership and Human Capital Management at New York University, certainly agrees with Dr. Sinar. He said a gap-year experience

39、 could be worthwhile for employees and companies. For employees, investing in themselves and improving skill sets is a move that will benefit throughout their career. He added that returning employees feel refreshed and have given more thought to their career. For companies, offering unpaid leaves m

40、akes good sense for attracting and keeping talented employees.“My hope is that this takes off,” Dr. Garritan said. “Were all thinking, Whats my next act?”59.

43、f New York, it was treated as a national event and even international media took notice. Like the situations in other cities carrying out the program, bike-sharing in New York allows a subscriber to “borrow” a bike from one of hundreds of locations in the city, use it, and return it to another locat

44、ion at the end of the journey.The United States may be a little late to the game, but the business of European-style bike share isnt that old to begin with.
