【解析】

这是一篇记叙文，文章主要讲述作者20年后的生活。

1.

句意:作为一名记者，我认为我会见到很多有趣的人，因此我有更多的朋友。

invite邀请；meet见到；thank感谢。will后面用动词原形，根据“lots of interesting people, so I'll have more friends”可知此处用动词meet。故选B。

2.

句意：因为我的空余时间更少了，我养的宠物会少一些。

fewer更少的；more更多的；better更好的。根据“I'll have less free time”可知空余时间变少了，宠物养的更少，用比较级less。故选A。

3.

句意：而且我的公寓将对宠物来说不怎么好，因为它太小了。

useful有用的；good好的；harmful有害的。根据“it'll be too small”可知公寓小了对宠物不好，此处用形容词good。故选B。

4.

句意：工作日，我会穿精明的衣服。

before在……之前；after在……之后；during在……期间。根据“On the weekend”，可知此处指的是工作日，用介词during表示“在工作日期间”。故选C。

5.

句意：在周末，我会穿的不怎么精明但是我会更舒服。

but但是；so因此；or否则。“look less smart”和“be more comfortable”前后是转折关系，此处用连词but。故选A。
