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.

选项
答案
F
解析
空格位于谓语may have之后,宾语income之前,故应填入形容词修饰income。but转折句指出,他们却过着低于自己财富水平的生活,暗示前半句说的是他们有足够的收入,disposable income意为“可支配的收入”,故空格处应填入disposable“可支配的,可使用的”,因此答案为[F]。备选的形容词中,crucial意为“重要的,关键的”,potential意为“潜在的”,均不符合文意,故排除。
