Rarely和seldom意思都是“很少”(表频率),seldom更正式、更书面。
People rarely ask questions.
She was seldom seen in public.
Barely 也是“很少”的意思, 但否定意味是在“能不能”这个意思上。
She nodded, barely able to speak.

Hardly和scarcely意思都是“几乎不”或者“刚刚”(表程度)。例如:you hardly had time to do so-mething 意味着你几乎没时间做某事。相比之下scarcely更正式、更书面。
I hardly had time to ask her name.
We had scarcely arrived when he asked us to leave.
