   Maybe unemployment isn’t so bad after all. A new study says that having a demanding, unstable and thankless job may make you even unhappier than not having a job at all.
   Given that a paid position gives workers purpose and a structured role, researchers had long thought that having any job would make a person happier than being 【C1】______. That turns out to be true if you move into a high-quality job—but taking a bad job is 【C2】______ to mental health.
   Australian National University researchers looked at how various psychosocial work attributes affect 【C3】______. They found that poor-quality jobs—those with high demands, low control over decision making, low job 【C4】______ and an effort-reward imbalance—had more adverse effects on mental health than joblessness. Moving from unemployment to a job with high psychosocial quality was associated with 【C5】______ in mental health, the authors said. Meanwhile, the mental health of people in the least-satisfying jobs declined the most over time—and the worse the job, the more it affected workers’ welfare.
   These findings 【C6】______ the importance of employment to a person’s welfare. Rather than seeking a new job, the study suggests, people who are unemployed or 【C7】______ in lousy work should seek new positions that offer more security, autonomy and a 【C8】______ workload. But that’s a lot easier said than done. Perhaps employers could be persuaded to be more mindful of the mental health of their workers—happier employees are a joy to their employers. "The 【C9】______of work conditions," the researchers noted, "may incur a health cost, which over the longer term will be both 【C10】______ and socially counterproductive."
【C9】
选项
答案D
解析 空格位于定冠词The和介词of之间，由此判断空格处填入名词。上文提到，不好的工作不利于员工的精神健康，结合后面的may incur a health cost可知，这里需要一个表消积含义的词，词库中的limitation和erosion可作为备选。limitation“限制”的语义太泛，有些工作环境的限制不一定就影响员工健康，而erosion放入句中表示“工作环境的恶化”，这就势必对健康有影响，因此选D。
