问题 Career Competition
Not so long ago almost any student who successfully completed a university degree could find a good career quite easily. Companies toured the academic institutions, competing with each other to select graduates. However, those days are gone, even in I-long Kong, and nowadays graduates often face strong competition in the search for jobs.
Most careers organizations highlight three stages for graduates to follow in the process of securing a suitable career: recognizing abilities, matching these to available jobs and presenting them well to possible employers.
Job seekers have to make a careful assessment of their own abilities. One area of assessment should be of their academic qualifications, which would include special skills within their subject area. Graduates should also consider their own personal values and attitudes. An honest assessment of personal interests and abilities such as creative skills, or skills acquired from work experience,should also be given careful thought.
The second stage is to study the opportunities available for employment and to think about how the general employment situation is likely to develop in the future. To do this, graduates can study job and position information in newspapers, or they can visit a careers office, write to possible employers for information or contact friends or relatives who may already be involved in a particular profession. After studying all the various options, they should be in a position to make informed comparisons between various careers.
Good personal presentation is essential in the search for a good career. Job application forms and letters should, of course, be filled in carefully and correctly, without grammar or spelling errors.Where additional information is asked for, job seekers should describe their abilities and work experience in more depth, with examples if possible. They should try to balance their own abilities with the employer's needs, explain why they are interested in a career with the particular company and try to show that they already know something about the company and its activities.
When graduates go to an interview, they should prepare properly by finding out all they can about the possible employer. Dressing suitably and arriving for the interview on time are also important. Interviewees should try to give positive and helpful answers and should not be afraid to ask questions about anything they are unsure about. This is much better than pretending to understand a question and giving an unsuitable answer.
According to Paragraph 4, graduates should()

选项 A.find a good position and then compare it with other careers.
B.ask friends or relatives to secure them a good job.
C.get information about a number of careers before making comparisons.
D.study the opportunities and the kinds of training that will be available.

答案C

解析细节题。题干:根据第四段,大学毕业生应该____。短文第四段中作者指出大学毕业生要通过各种渠道了解就业信息,然后再在各个职业之间进行研究和比较。所以C选项是正确答案。A选项“找到一个好的职位,然后再与其他的职业相比较”,是对文章内容的曲解,原文是说they should be in a position to make informed comparisons between various careers,这里position意为“形势,情形”,而不是一个职位;另外作者建议大学毕业生通过朋友和亲戚只是了解就业信息,而不是B选项“确保得到一份好工作”:而D项中文中没有提到。
