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.

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。
