Answer

If I said 'Drinking beer is a man's trade, one must keep in practice' I would be jokingly referring to my beer drinking as a man's right or prerogative by calling it a 'job' and I would use 'one must keep in practice' to justify my doing it repeatedly.

Answer

You must work hard in order to make your dream come true. 你只有勤奋努力，才能梦想成真。<<>> One must work hard in order... true. 一个人只有勤奋努力，才能梦想成真。

Answer

Let's come to your second question here as it is easier: the word "one" here refers to "a woman", according to the context. (Flirting is a woman's trade, one must keep in practice.)
As to your first question, "someone's trade" (roughly) means something that he or she depends on for a living. So, according to this sentence, the speaker thinks that a woman depends on flirting for a living, so she must keep practicing it.
I hope this can help you understand.
