The unstable economy caused <u>lots of people to lose their jobs.</u>

The correct answer is c. a drastic increase in unemployment.

Explanation: "The unstable economy casued a drastic increase in unemployment" is a paraphrase of the original sentence. Using the word "unemployment" instead of the phrase "people to lose their jobs" gives the sentence a more formal tone.
