问题     A young consultant’s life is tiring. A【C1】______week starts before dawn on Monday, with a rush to the airport and a【C2】______to wherever the client is based. He can【C3】______to stay in hotels at least three nights a week, gorging on minibar peanuts and gloomily texting a(n) 【C4】______lover. "It’s quite【C5】______to spend a year living out of a suitcase," sighs one London-based consultant.
    So the job【C6】______to "insecure overachievers" —a phrase【C7】______used in the industry—"who are always worried that they haven’t done enough work," jokes a consultant. Some 60-65% of consultants are recent college-leavers. Most【C8】______out within a few years and take more settled jobs elsewhere in the business world, 【C9】______their experience and contacts【C10】______them to slot in several levels above their less-travelled【C11】______ .
    The elite consultancies have offices in big cities, which is where【C12】______young people want to live. The best-paid jobs are in places【C13】______London and New York. Such cities are also where the culture and dating opportunities are richest.
    Such attitudes are frustrating for firms in Portsmouth or Peoria. 【C14】______consultancies benefit from it They【C15】______bright young things in the metropolis and then hire out their brains to firms in the sticks. This is one【C16】______why consultants have to travel so much.
    The system【C17】______, more or less, for everyone. Firms in the provinces get to【C18】______talent they could not【C19】______hire. And young consultants get to experience life in the real world before returning to the capital to party with their friends at the weekend. They have it all,【C20】______enough sleep.
【C5】
选项 A、irregular
B、moderate
C、extreme
D、normal
答案D
解析 living out of a suitcase是一个固定用法，意为“忙于奔波”，由上文可知，年轻咨询师一整年到处奔波是常态，故选D项normal“平常的”。A项irregular"不规则的”；B项moderate“有节制的，适度的”；C项extreme“极端的”。
