问题      Most worthwhile careers require some kind of specialized training. Ideally, therefore, the choice of an【1】should be made even before the choice of a curriculum in high school. Actually, however, most people make several job choices during their working lives,【2】because of economic and industrial changes and partly to improve their position. The "one perfect job" does not exist. Young people should【3】enter into a broad flexible training program that will fit them for a field of work rather than for a single【4】.
     Unfortunately, etent vocational counselor or psychologist. Knowing【5】about the occupational world, or themselves for that matter, they choose their lifework on a hit-or-miss basis. Some drift from job to job. Others【6】to work in which they are unhappy and for which they are not fitted.
     One common mistake is choosing an occupation for its real or imagined prestige. Too many high-school students--or their parents for them--choose the professional field,【7】both the relatively small proportion of workers in the professions and the extremely high educational and personal【8】. The imagined or real prestige of a profession or a "White-collar" job is no good reason for choosing it as life’s work. Moreover, these occupations are not always well paid. Since a large proportion of jobs are in mechanical and manual work, the【9】of young people should give serious consideration to these fields.
     Before making an occupational choice, a person should have a general idea of what he wants【10】and how hard he is willing to work to get it. Some people desire social prestige, others desire intellectual satisfaction. Some want security; others are willing to take risks for financial gain. Each occupational choice has its demands as well as its rewards.

选项 A、job
B、way
C、means
D、company

答案A

解析 本题测试异义名词。job意为“职业,工作”,指作为某人的手艺、行业或职业的工作;way意为“方式,方法”,指习惯的生活或行为方式;means意为“手段,方法”,指做事的手段或工具,可以指具体的东西,也可以指抽象的意念;company意为“公司,商号”,指商业企业。根据前面的a field of work(许多种工作)以及空格前的a single可知,前后都是指工作,所以应该选用job。
