【解析】

试题分析：这篇文章主要讲述了寻找工作的途径。首先可以到社区里寻找，社区里通常有一些招聘信息贴出；或者看报纸来获取招聘信息；还可以在网上寻找；另外一种有效方式是通过大学来找工作；还有一些专家也会帮助别人来寻找工作。

1.联系前后文，此句为：就像走进社区看通知牌一样简单。Walk into走进，句中用动名词形式作宾语。

2.根据后文where people can put small signs telling what kind of service they need or can provide.在哪里人们可以看到一些通知，告诉他们需要什么服务或能提供什么服务。故此处填area，区域，范围。

3.结合后文，此句为：这些服务包括照看小孩或清洁服务。Care for照看，句中要用动名词形式caring。

4.这里讲到了网络找工作，此句为：另外一种流行的的找工作方法是网络。Popular流行的，受欢迎的。

5.结合前后文，此句为：Craigslist网站说他们每个月会受到200万个新工作。Receive收到，句中动词要用第三人称单数形式receives。

6.这里讲到了通过大学来找工作，此句为：另外一种有用的方法是通过大学或学院。Through通过，介词。

7.结合前后文，此句为：当然，找工作需要你知道你想做什么工作。Require要求，句中主语是单数，故谓语动词用第三人称单数形式requires。

8.结合前后文，此句为：这本书自从在1970年首次出版就帮助很多人来选择职业。Choose选择；help sb. do sth帮助某人做某事，后接动词的原形。

9.结合前后文，此句为：Susan W. Miller在洛杉矶有一家叫加利福利亚职业服务公司。Own有，动词，由于主要是单数，所以谓语动词用owns。

10.结合前后文，此句为：她说她的工作帮助别人寻找工作，首先帮助他们认识到自己的优点、目标和兴趣。Interest兴趣，可数名词，句中用复数形式interests。
