答案解析
文章大意
本文讨论的是政府对年轻人的支持计划。现在的年轻人面临着一个不确定的未来。在21世纪刚刚来临时，他们满以为，只要接受了良好的教育和广泛的培训，就一定台有一个美好的未来。但10来年过去了，由于一些无法控制的原因，他们的教育与就业梦想都已瓦解。对此，社会应承担起相应的责任，“对年轻人的正面引导”就是政府近来推行的、旨在联合各方力量给年轻人提供积极帮助和支持的行动计划。
答案详解
1．unless→if语篇错误。原句在逻辑上解释不通。通过上下文我们可以推断。作者要表达的意思是“在21世纪刚刚来临时，他们以为。如果接受了良好的教育和广泛的培训，就一定舍有一个美好的未来”，故将unless改为if。
2．with→with词汇错误。take up with意为“开始与……来往，开始产生兴趣”，与此处的the wide range of training opportunities搭配，解释不通。
take up意为“开始从事，占用，占据”，用在此处表示“接受广泛的培训机会”。
3．with→to词汇错误。face up to是固定短语，意为“勇敢面对”。着要与with搭配，则常用于be faced with的结构。
4．economical→economic词汇错误。经济危机应译为economic crisis，而economical的意思为“经挤的，节约的，合算的”，用在此处，不符合上下文的意思。
5．∧wing→the词汇错误。wait in the wings是固定短语，意为“时刻准备着”。
6．responsible→irresponsible语法错误。该段第一句告诉我们“成年人总是以抱怨年轻人的种种不是来作为消遣”，暗示了成年人对年轻人总是给予负面评价，而且从本句的nuisances，rioters两词来看，此处也应该是一个表贬义的词，故改为irresponsible。
7．movement→move词汇错误。movement意为“运动，活动，动向”，不符合上下文的意思，而move作名词时，有“动作，步骤，措施“的意思，此处与make搭配使用，表示“采取……行动或措施”。
8．call→calls语法错误。此句的主语positive for youth是某一项活动的名称，是一个单数意义的词组，所以谓语动词也应该用单数形式。
9．employers→employees词汇错误。对于商家来说，年轻人应该是他们未来的雇员，而不是雇圭。
10. wasting→wasted语法错误。此处wasting是分词短语作后置定语，而waste与fund之间是被动关系，表示“被浪费在……上的资金”，故改为过去分词形式。
