语法填空

    When choosing a career, you should consider all the aspects of a job. Some jobs may seem very dull but are very important to society, others can appear very exciting but are (actual) very difficult and boring. One example is the so-called ‘glamorous job' of being a model or  actor. Would you like  (be) famous, wear diamonds, go to parties and relax on cushions in private jets or helicopters? In reality, these people have to spend long hours travelling, with all their (luggage) packed in suitcases or trunks, and only a very small number of them are successfully. Many actors, actresses and models hold ordinary, (glamorous) jobs, often  (work) as waiters and waitresses, in order to support  (they). Meanwhile, those who are successful and famous have to deal with constant media attention. They are also  huge pressure to appear young and beautiful. Most actors and models are always on a diet, and many have had painful operations to make their faces and bodies look more attractive. It does not seem that glamorous now, does it? Maybe a career as a local grocer (be) a better option.
