问题     Most worthwhile careers require some kind of specialized training. Ideally, the choice of an【C1】______should【C2】______even before choice of a curriculum in high school. Actually, most people make several job choices during their working lives,【C3】______because of economic and industrial changes and partly to【C4】______their position. The "one【C5】______job" does not exist. Young people should【C6】______enter a broad【C7】______training program that will【C8】______them for a field of work rather than for a single job.
    Unfortunately many young people have to make career plans without benefit of help from a(n)【C9】______vocational counselor or psychologist. Knowing【C10】______about the occupational world, or themselves for that matter, they choose their lifework on a hit-or-miss【C11】______. Some【C12】______from job to job. Others【C13】______to work in which they are unhappy and【C14】______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,【C15】______both the relatively small proportion of workers in the professions and the extremely high educational and personal【C16】______. The imagined or real prestige of a profession or a "white-collar" job is no good reason for choosing it as life’s work.【C17】______, these occupations are not always well paid. Since a large proportion of jobs are in mechanical and manual work, the【C18】______of young people should give serious【C19】______to these fields.
    Before making an occupational choice, a person should have a general idea of what he wants out of life and how hard he is willing to work to get it. Some people desire social prestige, others intellectual satisfaction. Some want security; others are willing to take【C20】______for financial gain. Each occupational choice has its demands as well as its rewards.
【C11】
选项 A、chance
B、purpose
C、opportunity
D、basis
答案D
解析 词汇题。固定搭配词组的词义辨析。chance“偶然，或然性”，常用作by chance，如：I met him by chance．我偶然遇到了他。purpose“目的”，常用短语为on purpose，表示“为了，故意地”，如：He did it on pur—pose．他故意这样做的。opportunity“机会，时机”，常用短语有take the opponunity todo sth．，“抓住机会做某事”。basis“基础”，常用短语on…basis或on the basisof，意为“以……为根据，在……基础上”，如：Don’t evaluate a person on the basis ofappearance．不要以貌取人。本句为“在碰运气的基础上选定自己的终生职业”，因此，只有选项basis合题意。
