问题     Tight-lipped elders used to say, "It’s not what you want in this world, but what you get." Psychology teaches that you do get what you want if you know what you want and want the right things.
    You can make a mental blueprint of a desire as you would make a blueprint of a house, and each of us is continually making these blueprints in the general routine of everyday living. If we intend to have friends to dinner, we plan the menu, make a shopping list, decide which food to cook first, and such planning is an essential for any type of meal to be served.
    Likewise, if you want to find a job, take a sheet of paper, and write a brief account of yourself. In making a blueprint for a job, begin with yourself, for when you know exactly what you have to offer, you can intelligently plan where to sell your services.
    This account of yourself is actually a sketch of your working life and should include education, experience and references. Such an account is valuable. It can be referred to in filling out standard application blanks and is extremely helpful in personal interviews. While talking to you, your could-be employer is deciding whether your education, your experience, and other qualifications will pay him to employ you and your "wares" and abilities must be displayed in an orderly and reasonably connected manner.
    When you have carefully prepared a blueprint of your abilities and desires, you have something tangible to sell. Then you are ready to hunt for a job. Get all the possible information about your could-be job, make inquiries as to the details regarding the job and the firm. Keep your eyes and ears open, and use your own judgement. Spend a certain amount of time each day seeking the employment you wish for, and keep in mind: Securing a job is your job now. [br] When you have carefully prepared a blueprint of your abilities and desires, you have something_____.
选项 A、definite to offer
B、imaginary to provide
C、practical to supply
D、desirable to present
答案 A
解析 本题中，B、C、D三项都与文意不符。从文章最后一段的内容可知，精心制订好了你的才干和愿望计划后，你就有了具体的东西可推销了；这样，你就可以寻找工作了。据此可知，制订好了自己的才干和愿望计划后，你就可以向可能的雇主提供确切的东西了。A项的“确切的东西可以提供”与文中的“you have something tangible to sell(有了具体的东西可推销了)”的意思相符，因此A项为正确答案。
