【解析】

1.名詞辨析。指出“大多數(shù)重要的職業(yè)都需要一定的專業(yè)培訓(xùn)”，故此空應(yīng)指對(duì)“職業(yè)”的選擇。

2.副詞辨析。根據(jù)上下文出現(xiàn)的兩個(gè)對(duì)應(yīng)副詞Ideally (理想地)，Actually(實(shí)際上)可知兩句存在對(duì)立關(guān)系．含有轉(zhuǎn)折意義。

3.副詞辨析。A徹底地；B主要地；C完全地；D部分地；前半句陳述現(xiàn)象，后半句分析原因。根據(jù)下文的partly to improve，可知D正確。

4.形容詞辨析。根據(jù)上下文可知這里的their是指前面提及的most people。

5.上下文串聯(lián)。根據(jù)句意“因此，年輕人應(yīng)該……廣泛靈活的培訓(xùn)計(jì)劃”．

6.詞義辨析。由后文的“一個(gè)領(lǐng)域的工作”和“某項(xiàng)工作”，可知年輕人參加培訓(xùn)的目的是為了“適應(yīng)”工作．因此B為答案。fit sb．for意為“使適合”。

7.上下文串聯(lián)。所填的詞應(yīng)與work對(duì)等呼應(yīng)

8.介詞辨析。根據(jù)上下文可知這里應(yīng)該使用否定詞與Unfortunately形成呼應(yīng)。

9.上下文串聯(lián)。由Unfortunately可知空格處應(yīng)填表否定意義的詞，know little about表示“對(duì)……知之甚少”

10.名詞辨析。名詞basis與介詞on連用。

11.動(dòng)詞辨析。others…則為另一種現(xiàn)象，應(yīng)與drift相反，即死抱著不喜歡的工作，選D。

12.代詞辨析。這里的it指代前面的an occupation。

13.動(dòng)詞辨析。根據(jù)句意可知是沒(méi)有認(rèn)識(shí)到…，忽視了…

14.名詞辨析。專業(yè)性職業(yè)領(lǐng)域?qū)�教育和個(gè)人能力要求相對(duì)較高，requirements“要求”符合。

15.上下文串聯(lián)。前兩句講選擇職業(yè)時(shí)的常見錯(cuò)誤，此處句意順承上文，應(yīng)填入否定詞，表示有聲譽(yù)的職業(yè)和白領(lǐng)職業(yè)并不能成為擇業(yè)的原因。

16.副詞辨析�？崭窈竺嬉痪湓捓^續(xù)對(duì)這樣的選擇予以否定．表達(dá)的是一種遞進(jìn)關(guān)系，有逗號(hào)隔開。

17.上下文串聯(lián)。根據(jù)句意可知大部分年輕人要認(rèn)真考慮這些領(lǐng)域。

18.名詞辨析。空格所在的句子與前面的句子構(gòu)成因果關(guān)系(since)．故空格處填入的詞大意思應(yīng)為“考慮，思考”，

19.上下文串聯(lián)。由he wants與life可知，是“從生活中想得到的”之義．故選B。

20.名詞辨析。由一些人希望有安全感和另一些人想得到金錢上的回報(bào)，可推知填入的詞應(yīng)與security“安全”相反，故選C。take risks“冒風(fēng)險(xiǎn)”。
