They drive hybrid cars, if they drive at all, shop at local stores, if they shop at all and pay off their credit cards every month, if they use them at all.
They may have【C1】______income, but they live below their means, in a conscious effort to tread【C2】______on the earth.
They are a new breed of "generation" , Young and Wealthy but Normal, or Yawns.
The acronym(首字母缩略词)comes from The Sunday Telegraph of London, which noted that an increasing number of rich young Britons are【C3】______aware, concerned about the environment and given less to【C4】______than to giving money to charity.
Yawns sound dull, but they are the new movers and shakers, their【C5】______big and bold. They are men and women in their 20s, 30s and 40s who want nothing less than to【C6】______the world and save the planet.
Take Sean Blagsvedt, who【C7】______from Seattle to India in 2004 to help build the local office of Microsoft Research. Moved by young children begging on the streets, Blagsvedt quit Microsoft and【C8】______two networking sites, babajob. com and babalife. com, to link India’s vast pool of【C9】______workers with the people who need labor. The larger goal—to reduce【C10】______.
The high-tech world has produced some Yawns, but more and more are appearing in every walk of life. In fact, Yawns are a subset of a growing global movement of the eco-socially aware.
A)change
B)consciously
C)consuming
D)crucial
E)desires
F)disposable
G)dreams
H)launched
I)lightly
J)moved
K)overturn
L)potential
M)poverty
N)socially
O)tracked
【C6】
选项
答案
A
解析
空格位于不定式to的后面,与save the planet中的动词save构成并列,故空格中应填入动词原形。上文说,这群被称作Yawns的人有着远大的梦想,再根据本句中and后的并列短语推测,他们想要做的是改变世界和拯救地球,故空格中应填入change“改变”。备选的动词原形overturn意为“推翻”,不符合文意,故排除。
