Question

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。

For college students, graduation signals an exciting new beginning. 【1】 Many students wonder: What do I do now? What career is best for me? Most expert advice on choosing careers boils down to the following points.

Knowing Yourself

What are your interests? Abilities? Skills? 【2】 The results may surprise you! These can be useful, but they’re not the last word.

Investigating

Investigating occupations is much more difficult. For most people, there isn’t just one ‘right’ job, but several that could be satisfying. 【3】 Talk to people who have occupations that interest you. Find out what they like and dislike about their job.

【4】

Many people choose their careers because they believe strongly in a particular cause. Some might choose to work in areas like medicine, charity or environmental protection. Some have a strong interest in history or a love for the arts. 【5】 So in cases like these, the field is often chosen first, rather than the occupation itself.

【4】C

【5】G

【解析】

試題分析：本文屬于說明文，大學畢業(yè)生在選擇職業(yè)方面面臨很多困惑，作者對此提出了自己的建議。

【1】D 根據(jù)橫線后兩句Many students wonder: What do I do now? What career is best for me?很多大學畢業(yè)生都想知道：我們現(xiàn)在能做什么？什么樣的職業(yè)最適合自己？說明很多大學畢業(yè)生對于未來的生活很迷茫，不知道未來在哪里。所以D項“But it can also bring a lot of uncertainty and confusion.”畢業(yè)也會帶來很多的不確定和困惑，符合上下文串聯(lián)。

【2】A 根據(jù)橫線前句What are your interests? Abilities? Skills?你的興趣是什么？你的能力怎么樣？你的技巧如何？要想了解自己，可以對自己進行一次測驗。測驗的結果可以告訴我們自己的興趣、能力和技巧。橫線后一句The results may surprise you!說明本句應該使用A項“Try a self-assessment quiz.”嘗試自我檢測,了解自己的興趣和能力技巧等。

【3】E 根據(jù)橫線前一句For most people, there isn’t just one ‘right’ job, but several that could be satisfying.對于很多人來說，沒有一個正確的職業(yè)，但又好幾個讓人滿意的職業(yè)。那么如何從這幾個讓人滿意的職業(yè)中找到適合自己的職業(yè)？我們可以進行職業(yè)研究來縮小范圍，所以E項“Serious research helps narrow the possibilities”符合上下文的串聯(lián)。同時后一句Talk to people who have occupations that interest you.這是職業(yè)研究的一種方式。

【4】C 根據(jù)本段最后一句Invest some time and effort, and find the right career for you.可知我們要花時間和經(jīng)歷，找到適合自己的正確的職業(yè)。這是本段的中心句，選項中的C項“Finding your place.”找到你的位置符合本段中心思想。

【5】G 根據(jù)橫線前句Some have a strong interest in history or a love for the arts.一些人對歷史或藝術有很濃厚的興趣，那么他們最可能選擇與歷史及藝術有關的職業(yè)。故G項“Then they might think about education, museums or art production.”中的教育、博物館學以及藝術創(chuàng)作正是與歷史及藝術相關的職業(yè)。故G項符合上下文串聯(lián)。
