19.  Every course of studies must lead somewhere: i.e. to a bigger wage ______. The demand for skilled personnel far exceeds the supply and big companies compete with each other to recruit students before they have completed their studies. Tempting salaries and "fringe benefits" are offered to them.
【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】 近义名词辨析。packet“小包裹”，wage packet“工资袋”，用在句中是指人们在意学习的课程是否能够带来更多的收入，故B符合语境。package“包裹”，既可以指大的包裹，例如邮包，也可以指小一点儿的包，但不与wage一起使用；baggage“行李”；socket“插座”，均不符合句意。
