3.考查副词及上下文的呼应。thoroughly彻底的; mainly 主要的; entirely完全地; partly 部分地,在一定程度上。这是由and 连接的并列句,既然and 后面跟着partly,那前面肯定也是 partly。此句的意思是“……部分是因为经济和产业的变化,部分是因为想提高他们的地位。”故选D。
4.考查代词及上下文的呼应。its它的; his他的; their 他们的; our我们的。因为前面的主语是most people,所以对应的是their 他们的,故选C。
5.考查副词及上下文的呼应。therefore因此; since自从; furthermore而且; forever永远。
前一句意思是“理想的工作是不存在的。”后一句意思是“年轻人应该参加广泛的职业训练活动……。”这两句显然是因果关系。故 A正确。

考点:社会现象类短文。
点评:完形填空旨在测试考生的综合应用语言能力。因此,要做好“完形填空”,不仅要具备一定的词法、句法和惯用法等语法知识,而且还要具备阅读理解能力、综合分析能力和运用语言知识的实践能力。通览全文,了解大意,找出信息词。通览全文后,认真观察选项,瞻前顾后,仔细推敲,逐项选定。完成所有空档后,还要再次通读全文,看看这时的短文行文是否流畅,意义是否连贯,逻辑关系是否合理。复查时,可从语法入手,检查一下句子的时态、主谓一致、代词的性、数、格以及词语的搭配等是否正确。凡遇疑点,必须根据文章的中心思想,从意义、语法的角度来仔细权衡,加以改正,弥补疏漏。
