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、little
B、few
C、much
D、a lot

答案A

解析 本题测试修饰词。little意为“很少,几乎没有”,修饰不可数名词或动词,表示否定意思;few意为“很少数,几乎没有”,修饰可数名词,表示否定意思;much意为“许多,大量”,修饰不可数名词或动词,表示肯定意思;a lot意为“大量,许多”,修饰动词,表示肯定意思。根据前面句子中的“without benefit of help(没有……的帮助)”以及后面句子中的“…they are unhappy and for which they are not fitted.(他们的工作令其不愉快,他们也不适合这样的工作)”可知,所填之词应该是否定意思,所以选用C、D不对;根据句子可知,所填之词修饰的是动词,所以选用B也不对。应该选用little。
