grammar problem

Hi there everyone!!

I have an important exam tomorrow and I have a question about the correctness of one sentence. It says 'There's nothing about the one profession that automatically qualifies you for the other(...)" My doubt is about the use of "the one" there... I am practising the CLOZE type exercises and I came across this one in particular with the gap being "There's nothing about the--------profession". The text previously compared two different professions, so both of them are mentioned before.

Can anyone help me please with this?

Thanks a lot,

Serge

It's correct to use "the one" there. You can use "the one" and "the other" or you can use "the former" and "the latter". CJ
