    "Young people ought not to be idle. It is very bad for them", said Margaret Thatcher many years ago. She was right: there are few worse things that society can do to its young than to leave them in uncertainty. Those who start their【C1】______ on the unemployment pension are more likely to have lower wages and more spells of joblessness later in life,【C2】______ they lose out on the chance to acquire skills and self-confidence in their formative years.
    Yet more young people are idle than ever. Depending on how you measure them, the number of young people without a job is nearly as large as the population of America.

选项
答案J
解析 空格处需要填入动名词词，与前面的reforming并列，表明two solutions的具体内容。这两个解决方法针对的是“企业抱怨找不到掌握合适技术的年轻人”的情况，找不到掌握合适技术的人，很可能是由于很多年轻人没有掌握合适的技术，也就是教育不行，所以此处应填入具有积极意义的词，词库中的improving“提高”代入后表示“提高教育水平”，符合语义逻辑。
