Instructions
* Fill in the missing words into the blank fields
After  years  of  fretting  over  coming  shortages,  the  country  is  actually  facing  a    number  of  young  people  entering  engineering  and  technology-related  fields.  The  decline  is  growing  so    that  industry  has  begun  advertising  campaigns  intended  to  make  engineering  look  sexy  and  cool,  and  companies  are  slowly  starting  to  import  foreign  workers,  or  sending  jobs  to  where  the  engineers  are,  in  Vietnam  and  India.  It  was  engineering  prowess  that  lifted  this  nation  from  postwar  defeat  to  economic  superpower.  But  according  to  educators,  executives  and  young  Japanese  themselves,  the  young  here  are    more  like  Americans:  choosing  better-paying  fields  like  finance  and  ,  or  more  purely  creative  careers,  like  the  arts,  rather  than  following  their  salaryman  fathers  into  the  unglamorous  world  of  .
