    A young consultant’s life is tiring. A【C1】______ week starts before dawn on Monday, with a rush to the airport and a flight to wherever the client is based. He can expect to stay in hotels at least three nights a week, gorging on minibar peanuts and gloomily【C2】______ a distant lover. "It’s quite normal to spend a year living out of a suitcase," sighs one London-based consultant.
    So the job【C3】______"insecure overachievers"—a phrase widely 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 drop out within a few years and take more【C4】______ jobs elsewhere in the business world, where their experience and【C5】______ allow them to slot in several levels above their less-travelled counterparts.
    The elite consultancies have offices in big cities, which is where ambitious young people want to live. The best-paid jobs are in places【C6】______ 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. But consultancies benefit from it. They【C7】______ bright young things in the metropolis and then hire out their brains to firms in the sticks. This is one reason why consultants have to travel so much.
    The system【C8】______, more or less, for everyone. Firms in the provinces get to borrow talent they could not【C9】______ 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,【C10】______ enough sleep.
【C10】
选项
答案K
解析 空格处需填介词。空格前说“他们什么都有”，“他们”指“年轻咨询师”。但文章首句就提到年轻咨询师的生活是tiring“劳累的”，由此可以推知他们休息不足，即缺少足够的睡眠，故选except“除了”。
