That sounds like a【C3】______thing, but as a recent study has shown, too many choices can make us confused, even paralyzed【C4】______indecision. "That’s particularly true【C5】______it comes to the work place," says Barry Schwartz, an author of six books about human behavior. Students C6】______with a variety of skills and interests, but often find themselves【C7】______when they are to choose an ultimate career【C8】______In a study, Schwartz observed decision-making among college students【C9】______their senior year.
Based on answers to questions【C10】______their job hunting strategies and career decisions, he divided the students into two groups: maximizers, who【C11】______every possible option, and satisficers, who look until they find an option that is good enough. You might【C12】______that the student who had undertaken the most【C13】______search would be the most satisfied with their final decision, but it【C14】______that’s not true. Schwartz found that while maximizers ended up【C15】______better-paying jobs than satisficers on【C16】______they weren’t【C17】______happy with their decision. The reason why these people feel less satisfied is that a world of possibilities may also be a world of【C18】______opportunities. When you look at every possible option, you【C19】______to focus more on what was given up than what was gained. After surveying every option, a person is more acutely【C20】______of the opportunities they had to turn down to pursue just one career.

选项
A、tastes
B、flavors
C、varieties
D、styles
答案
B
解析
语义衔接题。根据上文的意思,有时我们面临的选择太多,以至于眼花缭乱。在吃冰激凌时,冰激凌往往有多种口味(flavors)供人选择,如:香草味(vanilla),巧克力味(chocolate)等等。taste表示“(酸甜苦辣等)味道”;variety表示“品种”;style意为“风格”。
