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
E) anxious F) mug G) hardly H) remedy
I) realization J) dynamic K) resume L) tough
M) neglected N) drying O) flood [br] 【C2】
选项
答案 G
解析 空格位于主语与谓语之间，应为副词。结合上文的内容可知，当时的英国人不用担心失业．此句中such…that…引出一种结果。既然穷困时期那么遥远(a distant memory)，也就没有必要节俭了，因此，表否定含义的hardly符合句意。
