问题    Students graduating from colleges today are not fully prepared to deal with the" real world". It is my belief that college students need to be taught more skills and information to enable them to meet the challenges that face everyone in daily life. The areas in which students need training are playing the credit game, planning their personal financial strategy, and consumer awareness.
   Learning how to obtain and use credit, cardsis probably the most valuable knowledge a young person can have. Credit card is a dangerous tool that can be of tremendous help if it is handled with caution. Having credit cards can enable people to obtain material necessities before they have the money to purchase them. But unfortunately, many young people get carried away with their handy plastic credit cards and awake one day to find they are in serious financial debt. Learning how to use credit cards properly can be a very difficult and painful lesson indeed.
   Of equal importance is learning how to plan a personal budget. People have to know how to control money; otherwise, it can control them. Students should learn how to set aside their money for living expenses, insurance, savings, and so forth in order to avoid the" Oh, no ! I’ve no money and I don’t get paid again for two weeks!" anxiety conditions.
   Along with learning about credit and personal financial planning, graduating college students should be trained as consumers. The consumer market today is flooded with a variety of products and services of varying  quality and prices. A young person entering the" real world" is suddenly faced with difficult decisions about which product to buy or whose services to engage. He is usually unaware of such things as return policies, guarantees, or repair procedures. Information of this sort is vital knowledge to everyday living.
   For a newly graduated college student, the" real world" can be a scary place to be when he or she is faced with such issues as handling credit, planning a budget, or knowing what to look for when making a purchase and whom to purchase it from. Entering this" real world" could be made less painful if persons were educated in dealing with these areas of daily life. What better place to accomplish this than in college?  
Students suffer from anxiety conditions because ______.
选项 A、they do not have their parents’ financial support
B、they are worded that they don’t get paid on time
C、they run out of money and can’t cover their living expenses
D、they can’t afford to buy insurance for themselves
答案C
解析 由题干anxiety conditions可定位到第三段最后一句的后半部分avoid“Oh，no! I’ve no money and I don’t get paid again for two weeks!”anxiety conditions，意思是避免处于“没钱了，要两个星期之后才会发工资”的窘况。[C]他们花光了钱，没钱支付生活开销了，与原文的意义一致，因此选[C]。[A]、[B]、[D]与文意不符。
