1． 【C1】
正确答案：J
解析：根据句子结构可知，空格处缺少动词作定语从句的谓语。空格所在处意为“自由职业者，就像在体育运动中一样，指的是行为不受任何约定______的人”，联系上文commitments一词，在备选动词中只有restrict“”在含义上与其吻合，故J项为答案。
2． 【C2】
正确答案：G
解析：根据空格后的名词jobs可推断，此处缺少形容词。结合上文提及的自由职业以及行为不受等可推断，自由职业所包括的是“无固定薪酬制的”工作，故G项unsalaried“无固定薪酬的”为答案。
3． 【C3】
正确答案：A
解析：根据空格前的receive health care可推断此处缺少名词作宾语。根据常识可知，health care属于能够领到 “津贴”的一种情况，故A项benefits为答案。
4． 【C4】
正确答案：F
解析：根据空格后的名词clients可知，该处应填入形容词。由空格所在句中的clients和a variety of projects可知，multiple“多的，多种的”符合文意，故F项为答案。
5． 【C5】
正确答案：H
解析：由空格前的定冠词the可知，该空缺少一个名词作that引导的从句的主语。结合空格后had grown to 44 million（已经增长到4400万）可推知，H项number“数量”为答案。
6． 【C6】
正确答案：I
解析：根据句子结构可知，该空应填入动词的过去分词与get构成被动语态，且该词可以与for搭配。结合句意“美国人渴望通过更自由、更灵活、更多的方式使他们的专业技能获得______”可推知，I项paid“支付”符合文意，故为答案。

11． 【C1】
正确答案：G
解析：由句子结构可知，空格处所填单词和后面的in the path一起作saw的宾语补足语。lying的动词原形为lie，表示“位于；平放”，空格所在处意为“他们看见路上放着一双旧鞋”，因此答案为G项lying。
12． 【C2】
正确答案：F
解析：空格位于was后，因此空格处应填入一个分词或形容词。根据前面的poor mall和后面的in a field close by可知，该处想要表达的意思是“被雇用在附近的田地里工作的一个穷人”，所以选F项employed“雇用”。

17． 【C7】
正确答案：B
解析：由句子结构可知，此处应填入名词，和wonder并列作主语。由句意可知，那位穷人发现钱币后感到非常惊讶，下文中的his surprise was doubled也强调了惊讶，因此答案为B项astonishment“惊讶，惊异”。备选的名词中，scare表示“使惊恐”，但原文并无此意，所以排除。

As for specific actions, I suggest that blood should be checked as a 【C5】______ part of a youngster’s yearly physical. It should contain at least 11 grams iron per 100 milliliters of blood for a girl and at least 12 grams for a boy. If it is any lower, the physician probably will 【C6】______ an easily absorbed iron supplement.
