问题     Back in the carefree days of the Noughties boom, Britain’s youngsters were swept along by the buy-now-pay-later culture embraced by consumers up and down the country. During a decade of near-full employment, many【C1】______quickly from one job—and one credit card—to another, and rainy days were such a distant memory that they【C2】______seemed worth saving for.
    But with the supply of cheap credit【C3】______up and a generation of school and university leavers about to【C4】______the recession-hit job market, thousands of young people with no memory of the early 1990s recession are shocked into the【C5】______that the world of 2009 is very different.
    Katie Orme, 19, who lives in Birmingham, says she has decided never to get a credit card after seeing the problems that her parents and 22yearold sister have had with debt—just one of the【C6】______lessons that she has had to learn.
    Orme finished her A-levels a year ago, and has been searching for a job—and living at home with her parents—ever since. She has had to【C7】______on to support herself and is now on a 12-week internship(实习期)at the Prince’s Trust to improve her【C8】______The Trust says that the number of calls from【C9】______people such as Orme has shot up by 50% over six months. "It’s so hard to get a job at the moment," she says, "it’s better to go and get more qualifications so when more jobs are【C10】______you will be better suited."
    A)sign B)skipped C)available D)mostly

选项
答案 N
解析 结合句首的with和空格后的介词up推知此处应为动词的分词形式。词库中可与up搭配的分词只有drying一词，drying up表示低利率信贷供给日趋“枯竭”，这正好体现了2009年的经济状况已大不如之前，故drying为本题答案。
