There is a commonly held view that the only way to get (0) decent pay increase is to move on: to go out into the job market and find someone (31) is prepared to pay you a figure more in line (32) the talents you can offer. Whilst changing employers from time (33) time is something we probably all need to do to advance our careers in the directions we want them to take, it is nevertheless an activity that carries quite definite risks. Irrespective of (34) well we research prospective employers, a new job is still largely a step into the unknown . It may turn (35) to be a good move or it could prove to be a complete disaster : most of us (36) had experience of both. The point here, though, is that changing employers is not something we want to be doing all the time and certainly not (37) time we feel the urge for better pay . We’d (38) taking more risks than we needed to just to achieve a pay rise. Getting a pay rise should always be viewed (39) a serious business.

　　答案及解析

　　关于加薪的文章，教你怎么样实现加薪。这道题目不难，但是抛开题目，单说文章里谈的加薪的方法，各位还是要辩证的看。要想人生第一份工作就找到自己满意的，是挺难，可是以加薪为目的跳槽，也未必是什么明智的好办法。

　　31题，太明显的定语从句，前面是someone，那么当然填入表示人的关系代词who。

　　32题，in line with，和什么一致，固定搭配，在中级的选词版完型里常考到这个词组。这句的意思是，找个一个愿意给你提供和你才能更加一致的薪水的人。

　　33题，from time to time，时不时的。changing employers from time to time，时不时的换老板。

　　34题，Irrespective of，同regardless of一样，后面接让步状语从句，不管我们对可能的雇主研究的多么好，新的工作都是一个未知数。用how well。

　　35题，turn out to be，固定用法。

　　36题，换工作，要么是个好的举措，要么将成为灾难。而我们大多数人这两种经历都有。有这种经历，是过去完成时，用have+done。

　　37题，理解前后文意思。换老板不是件我们经常愿意做的事情，并且也不是一想要加薪就要换老板。用every time，表示每次要加薪就准备换老板。

　　38题，这题有点难度，考验人的语法功底。首先这个句子是虚拟语气，We’d是we would的缩写，而不是we had。是表示对将来的假设，我们要承担更多的风险。所以用would be。

　　39题，比较明显的，view as，将什么视作什么。

　　40题，和circumstance相关的词组，很容易想到under/on some circumstance，在某种情况下。
