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 2014 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 22-year-old 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【C7】______for a job—and living at home with her parents—ever since. She has had to sign 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) anxious E) flood I) neglected M) resume
B) available F) hardly J) painful N) searching
C) drying G) mostly K) realization O) skipped
D) dynamic H) mug L) remedy
【C4】
选项
答案
E
解析
由be about to do sth.结构可知,此处应为原形动词。由本段开头的But一词可推断本段提到的2014年的经济状况应与上一段提到的繁荣时期的经济状况相反,上一段提到当时人们可以随意换工作,这一段就应该说人们很难找到工作,由此可推断空白处应填flood,描述人多职位少的情况。
