文章
Pursuing a career is an essential part of adolescent development. "The adolescent becomes an adult when he __26__ a real job." To cognitive researchers like Piaget, adulthood meant the beginning of an __27__.
Piaget argued that once adolescents enter the world of work, their newly acquired ability to form hypotheses allows them to create representations that are too ideal. The __28__ of such ideals, without the tempering of the reality of a job or profession, rapidly leads adolescents to become __29__ of the non-idealistic world and to press for reform in a characteristically adolescent way. Piaget said: "True adaptation to society comes __30__ when the adolescent reformer attempts to put his ideas to work."
Of course, youthful idealism is often courageous, and no one likes to give up dreams. Perhaps, taken __31__ out of context, Piaget's statement seems harsh. What he was __32__, however, is the way reality can modify idealistic views. Some people refer to such modification as maturity. Piaget argued that attaining and accepting a vocation is one of the best ways to modify idealized views and to mature.
As careers and vocations become less available during times of __33__, adolescents may be especially hard hit. Such difficult economic times may leave many adolescents __34__ about their roles in society. For this reason, community interventions and government job programs that offer summer and vacation work are not only economically __35__ but also help to stimulate the adolescent's sense of worth.
空格位于'when he __26__ a real job'，主语为单数第三人称he，谓语需要一个动词（单三形式）。词库中唯一符合的动词是O. Undertakes（从事/承担）：'when he undertakes a real job'即'当他从事一份真正的工作时'，正与上句'becomes an adult'呼应——从事真实工作标志着步入成年。原选K. Occupation是名词，无法充当谓语，语法不成立。
27. 答案：K（Occupation）
空格位于'adulthood meant the beginning of an __27__'，不定冠词an后需接以元音音素开头的可数名词。全篇主题是'pursuing a career/vocation'标志成年，故填K. Occupation（职业）：'the beginning of an occupation'即'一份职业的开始'，与首句'Pursuing a career is an essential part of adolescent development'及下文vocation主线一致。原选H. Existence（存在）与职业主线不符，'beginning of an existence'语义空泛。
28. 答案：H（Existence）
空格位于'The __28__ of such ideals ... rapidly leads adolescents to become intolerant'，'The ___ of such ideals'作句子主语，需要名词且谓语为单数leads。填H. Existence（存在）：'The existence of such ideals'即'这些理想的存在'——正是过于理想化观念的存在本身导致青少年无法容忍非理想世界。原选C. Capturing（捕捉）作动名词主语时语义不通，'捕捉理想'与下文因果关系不搭。
29. 答案：J
此处需要一个形容词作宾语补足语，表示青少年对非理想化世界的态度。根据上下文，'leads adolescents to become __29__ of the non-idealistic world'，此处应填入'Intolerant'，表示青少年对非理想化世界的不容忍。
30. 答案：A
此处需要一个副词作状语，表示'True adaptation to society'发生的条件。根据上下文，'True adaptation to society comes __30__ when the adolescent reformer attempts to put his ideas to work'，此处应填入'Automatically'，表示一旦青少年尝试将他的想法付诸实践，对社会的真正适应就会自动发生。
31. 答案：N（Slightly）
空格位于'taken __31__ out of context'，需要一个表程度的副词修饰'out of context'。填N. Slightly（略微）：'taken slightly out of context'即'略微脱离上下文来看'，作者在让步——只是稍稍断章取义时，皮亚杰的话才显得严厉。原选I. Incidentally（顺便/偶然）无法与'out of context'搭配修饰程度，语义不通。
32. 答案：E
此处需要一个现在分词作宾语补足语，表示Piaget所强调的内容。根据上下文，'What he was __32__, however, is the way reality can modify idealistic views'，此处应填入'Emphasizing'，表示Piaget所强调的是现实如何修改理想化的观点。
33. 答案：M
此处需要一个名词作宾语，表示影响职业和职业可用性的时代背景。根据上下文，'As careers and vocations become less available during times of __33__',此处应填入'Recession'，表示在经济衰退时期，职业和职业变得不那么可用。
34. 答案：D
此处需要一个形容词作宾语补足语，表示青少年对社会角色的感受。根据上下文，'Such difficult economic times may leave many adolescents __34__ about their roles in society'，此处应填入'Confused'，表示困难的经济时期可能让许多青少年对社会角色感到困惑。
35. 答案：B
此处需要一个形容词作宾语补足语，表示社区干预和政府工作计划的经济价值。根据上下文，'For this reason, community interventions and government job programs that offer summer and vacation work are not only economically __35__ but also help to stimulate the adolescent's sense of worth'，此处应填入'Beneficial'，表示这些计划不仅在经济上有益，而且有助于激发青少年的价值感。
