C. ambiguous              F. consolidated                I. concomitants
选项
答案B，D，G
解析 空格(i)：
- 方程等号：but also也…，同义重复。
- 强词和对应：工作机会的增加很缓慢，这是史无前例的，同时导致衰退的局面也是空格(i)的。强词without precedent指向空格(i)，依据but also取同，空格(i)应填入表示“史无前例”的词。heartening鼓舞人心的，atypical不寻常的，ambiguous模糊不清的，答案选B。
空格(ii)：
- 方程等号：句号，同义重复。
- 强词和对应：第二句话说股票市场下跌，投资也下跌。由于二、三两句之间顺承，第三句表达的应该还是负面意思。大量谣言空格(ii)了公众信任，因此空格(ii)应填入一个负向词。weaken削弱，illuminate阐明，consolidate加固。答案选D。
空格(iii)：
-方程等号：despite，反义重复。
-强词和对应：despite表示句内转折，所以空格(iii)应填入与mild相反含义的词，所以填入一个负向词。counterforce负面力量，stimulant刺激，concomitant伴随而来的事物，答案选G。
