题目分析：
本题中有一个平行制造者not…but…。其所连接的两者需要在逻辑上和语形上保持一致。

选项分析：

A选项：not…but…为习语，不是not…rather…；as a sign that households were pressed for cashand forced to borrow和a sign of confidence by households在语法上不平行。

B选项：not…yet习语错误同(A)。

C选项：not as a sign和but a sign在语法上不对等，应该是not as a sign和but as a sign。

D选项：Correct.本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。其中，they could safely handle new debt身前省略的that，实则这是一个宾语从句，可以把were confident看为一个谓语动词。

E选项：首先，but后添加also是有问题的。also的意思是“也”，它是一个语气助词，通常表示和前句“同方向”的事物，例如，not only A, but also B. 我们知道，该复合句中，A和B的关系是“递进”，即，A和B两者是同方向的。在本选项中，households were pressed for cash and forced toborrow和they could safely handle new debt之间是转折关系，即，两者并非同方向，不应该在but后加also。
其次，本选项在were confident的身后是一个介词短语，该介词短语的核心词是ability。在选项(D)中，该部分是一个从句，核心词是谓语动词handle。但从逻辑上，无论是对能力有信心，还是对handle这件事有信心都说的通，因此这一点不同没有什么错误。
再次，safely是副词，应该就近修饰动词handle，即，应改为：
households were confident in their ability to safely handle new debt.
