College students are to be offered year-long work experience positions in developing countries under plans to link the UK’s domestic policies with parts of the nation’s foreign aid budget. "Those who are lucky enough to be selected", says Janice Geller, a spokeswoman for the Department of International Finance, "will have the chance to work as apprentice engineers, project managers, and accountants."

Explanation:

Inverted commas are generally used to indicate a direct speech or words of a particular person. This means that any speech or words spoken by a person if given in the direct speech form, are to be enclosed within inverted commas.

The given passage has several incorrect uses of the inverted commas and also required addition in someplace. So, the corrected places are given as below-

1. Put inverted commas at the start of the speech by Janice Geller ("Those . . .)

2. Close the speech with end inverted comma (. . . selected", says Janice Geller).

3. Remove inverted commas at "a spokeswoman . . .

4. open inverted commas from "will have . . .

5. Close inverted comma after "accountants."

6. Remove end inverted comma after ". . . alone"

Thus, the final passage becomes-
