2.副词辨析。根据上下文出现的两个对应副词Ideally (理想地),Actually(实际上)可知两句存在对立关系.含有转折意义。

3.副词辨析。A彻底地;B主要地;C完全地;D部分地;前半句陈述现象,后半句分析原因。根据下文的partly to improve,可知D正确。

4.形容词辨析。根据上下文可知这里的their是指前面提及的most people。

5.上下文串联。根据句意“因此,年轻人应该……广泛灵活的培训计划”.

6.词义辨析。由后文的“一个领域的工作”和“某项工作”,可知年轻人参加培训的目的是为了“适应”工作.因此B为答案。fit sb.for意为“使适合”。

7.上下文串联。所填的词应与work对等呼应

9.上下文串联。由Unfortunately可知空格处应填表否定意义的词,know little about表示“对……知之甚少”

10.名词辨析。名词basis与介词on连用。

11.动词辨析。others…则为另一种现象,应与drift相反,即死抱着不喜欢的工作,选D。

12.代词辨析。这里的it指代前面的an occupation。

13.动词辨析。根据句意可知是没有认识到…,忽视了…

14.名词辨析。专业性职业领域对教育和个人能力要求相对较高,requirements“要求”符合。

15.上下文串联。前两句讲选择职业时的常见错误,此处句意顺承上文,应填入否定词,表示有声誉的职业和白领职业并不能成为择业的原因。

16.副词辨析。空格后面一句话继续对这样的选择予以否定.表达的是一种递进关系,有逗号隔开。

17.上下文串联。根据句意可知大部分年轻人要认真考虑这些领域。

18.名词辨析。空格所在的句子与前面的句子构成因果关系(since).故空格处填入的词大意思应为“考虑,思考”,

19.上下文串联。由he wants与life可知,是“从生活中想得到的”之义.故选B。

20.名词辨析。由一些人希望有安全感和另一些人想得到金钱上的回报,可推知填入的词应与security“安全”相反,故选C。take risks“冒风险”。
