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 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.

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in a conscious efforts to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”,因此答案为[I]。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。
