After the world suffered major crises in 2008, the concept of risk management has gained【C4】______ in international development. The links between risk, livelihoods and poverty are all too clear. Mounting evidence shows that【C5】______ shocks—above all, health and weather shocks and economic crises—play a major role in pushing households below the poverty line and keeping them there.

选项
答案
G
解析
此处需填入副词,修饰动名词responding。转折词instead of表明此处讲救灾人员不应该做的事,根据句意“救援人员和决策者应采取行动预防此类罕见的灾难性事件,而不能到了危急关头才……应对”,simply符合句意。
