1.答案 importance
解析 考查词性转换。句意:在考虑职业、职业发展甚至找工作时,我们通常会重视所谓的“硬技能”,即与我们执行特定任务或完成特定工作的能力直接相关的技能。attach importance to重视……,为固定搭配。
2.答案 that/which
解析 考查引导词。空处引导定语从句且在定语从句中作主语,先行词为skills,应用关系代词which或that。
3.答案 our
解析 考查代词。句意:这些技能是可以评估或衡量的,因为它们是我们获得学位、证书、专业知识、继续教育、职业培训等的结果。空处修饰名词,应用形容词性物主代词our表示“我们的”。
4.答案 to measure
解析 考查非谓语动词。句意:另一方面,“软技能”比“硬技能”更难衡量,因为它们通常不是来自学位或专业培训,而是来自生活经验、个性和态度。be hard to do sth很难做某事,measure意为“衡量”。
5.答案 but
解析 考查并列连词。not…but…不是……而是……,为固定句式。
6.答案 are called
解析 考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:它们被称为“人际技能”,因为它们通常以某种形式与我们如何与他人打交道或互动有关。此处描述客观事实,故用一般现在时;动词call和主语they构成逻辑上的动宾关系,应用一般现在时的被动语态;主语they为复数形式,故填are called。

解析 考查词性转换。此处作状语修饰动词relate,应用副词typically(通常)。
8.答案 mentioned
解析 考查非谓语动词。句意:一些通常提到的软技能包括创造力、团队合作、书面和口头沟通、管理领导、灵活性和组织能力。动词mention(提到)和谓语之间没有连词,应用非谓语形式;mention和主语soft skills构成逻辑上的动宾关系,且动作已完成,故用过去分词形式作定语。
