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.
【C4】
选项 A、improve
B、develop
C、enhance
D、progress
答案A
解析 词汇题。词义辨析题。选项需和position(境况，地位，职位)搭配得当。improve“改善，增进”，如：The human rights situationhas been steadily improved in our country．我国的人权状况一直在稳步地得到改进。improve(their)position“改善境况”，搭配得当，且符合题意，为正确答案。develop“(使)发展，开发”，可做及物动词，如：Fresh air and exercise develop healthybodies．新鲜空气和运动能使身体健康。enhance“增加，提高”，指在价值、声望等上增强，如：Can we further enhance our competitiveness?我们能否进一步增强我们的竞争力?根据以上分析，此两项均不能与position搭配。progress为不及物动词，因此，首先从用法上就否定了其作为正确答案的可能；另外，其含义为“进步，前进”，指向更高或更好的阶段前进，稳定地改善，如：The land can be better made use of astechnology progresses．随着技术的进步，土地资源将被更好地利用。可见含义也与本题不符。
