问题     Like many of the protesters at Occupy Wall Street in New York, Amanda Vodola is young, underemployed and loaded with student debt. She spends her days running around, helping【C1】______the movement, and her evenings waiting tables at a restaurant in Brooklyn. Last spring, she graduated from Fordham University【C2】______a degree in English. "I grew up with this narrative that to get a good job I need to go to school," she says. But the job she has " is not enough to pay the bills. " And the bills she’s【C3】______most about are the ones tied to that narrative: the $ 30,000 she【C4】______in college loans.
    In November, when their six-month grace period runs【C5】______, Vodola and millions of other students who graduated in May have to start【C6】______their loans. Repayment requirements for private loans kick in regardless of whether【C7】______have found jobs. Since employment rates for recent college graduates have【C8】______in the past two years, as have starting salaries, the【C9】______of a sharp rise in student-loan delinquencies (到期未付) has led some economists to【C10】______that this could be the next financial crisis, rippling (波及) into the wider economy. Total US student-loan debt, which exceeded credit-card debt【C11】______the first time last year, is on track to【C12】______$ 1, 000 billion this year. That’s a nearly 8%【C13】______over last year.
    But neither these【C14】______nor the voices of students,【C15】______by debt, at protests in cities and on campuses【C16】______the nation are likely to keep the families of high school seniors【C17】______seeing a brand-name education as a【C18】______to a better life. They’ve long been told that higher education is an【C19】______in the future—even as the costs of college has【C20】______538% over the past 30 years. [br] 【C5】

选项 A、down
B、up
C、off
D、out

答案 D

解析 固定搭配。空格中需要填入副词与前面的runs构成固定搭配。由空格后的句意“沃多拉与其他五月份毕业的毕业生将不得不开始偿还贷款”可知,此处是说“他们的贷款还款宽限期即将到期”。冈此空格处心填入out,固定短语run out“用完,耗尽”符合题意。动词run与其他选项构成的固定短语run down意为“逐渐缩减,逐渐减少”;run up意为“领先,升起”;run off意为“跑掉,离弃”,均不符合句意,可以排除。
