What do dieting and energy policy have in common? The SnackWell effect. The name comes from those tasty little cookies that are【C1】______as being lower in fat and sugar.

Much like dieters eating too many SnackWell's, we can fail in our attempts to save energy and money. So resist the【C6】______to raise your thermostat (恒温器) after you buy a more efficient furnace: lower the temperature by a degree and shave another 1% off your heating bill.

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.
