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 20 s, 30s and 40 s 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 I)lightly
B)consciously J)moved
C)consuming K)overturn
D)crucial L)potential
E)desires M)poverty
F)disposable N)socially
G)dreams O)tracked
H)launched
【C2】
选项
答案
I
解析
空格位于动词tread与介词短语on the earth之间,故应填入副词修饰tread。前一句说这些人有足够的收入,却过着低于自己财富水平的生活,介词短语表目的,说明他们这样做是为了有意识地“轻踩大地”,可以引申理解为:为了保护地球。故空格处应填入lightly“轻轻地”。备选的副词中,consciously意为“有意识地”;socially意为“社会地,在社会中”,均不符合文意,故排除。
