Many people invest in the stock market hoping to find the next Microsoft and Dell. However, I know from personal experience how difficult this really is. For more than a year, I was (41) hundreds and sometimes thousands of dollars a day investing in the market.

It’s when all your stocks are losing and everyone is questioning your stock-picking (50) that you find out if you have what it takes to invest in the market. [br] (42)
选项
A、losing
B、retiring
C、getting
D、quitting
答案
D
解析
quit one’s job“辞职”,由后面的of buying a small apartment in Paris, of traveling around the world也可看出作者是想主动辞职而非被动失去工作、退休或者找工作。 lose one’s job“失去工作(被动)”;retire“退休”;get one’s job“找工作”。
