Figures from the Office for National Statistics( ONS)showed【C2】______ spending fell by 1. 2% in the first three months of the year. People spent less on housing, household goods and services,【C3】______ those who went on holiday abroad also spent【C4】______ less.
Consumers tightened their belts【C5】______ the face of job losses, pay【C6】______ or freezes and sharply reduced City bonuses.

The data was【C11】______ as part of the ONS’s latest assessment of the UK economy, which【C12】______ that gross domestic product(GDP)shrank by 1.9% in the first quarter,【C13】______ sharpest decline since 1979. GDP stood 4.1%【C14】______ than a year ago, the biggest annual fall since 1980.

选项
A、instantly
B、simultaneously
C、significantly
D、actively
答案
C
解析
副词辨义。本题的关键在于分辨空格处所缺单词是修饰前面的动词spent还是后面的形容词less,由上文People spent less on housing…可推知,那些出国度假的人的开支应该减少得更显著些,即空格是修饰后面的形容词less。significantly“显著地”含义与此相符,故为答案。
