The world’s first institution of its kind was founded in 1753, based on the collections left to the nation by Sir Hans Sloane, a wealthy doctor who had made it clear that he expected them to be open to public view. A committee of eminent(著名的)trustees was【C1】______to organize the museum in a 17th-century mansion called Montagu House, bought with【C2】______raised by a public lottery, and late in 1758 the trustees decided to open to the public, though as David Wilson makes clear in his history of the museum, they had reservations about who should be let in. There were【C3】______doubts about servants and members of the lower classes, whose presence could offend visitors from【C4】______up the social ladder. No drunks were welcome, and for the collections’ safety it was provided that visitors must be shown【C5】______by the museum’s officers and not allowed to walk through the rooms【C6】______.
The number of visitors in the early years【C7】______to some 12 000 people a year, who came to see the antiquities from Aztec Mexico to Ancient Egypt to India and Japan, the classical statues, the natural history and geological【C8】______, the manuscripts and drawings, coins and medals. The Egyptian mummies(木乃伊)particularly【C9】______early visitors. Reputable scholars were allowed to work in the reading rooms. In the early days they included the philosopher. Purchases and【C10】______swiftly augmented(增加)the collections and the museum was well on its way.
A)alone F)gifts K)noble
B)assembled G)grave L)prevented
C)assigned H)higher M)ran
D)belongings I)items N)round
E)fascinated J)money O)simply
【C1】
选项
答案
B
解析
动词辨析题。分析句子结构可知,空格处或填入形容词作was的表语,或填入动词的过去分词与was构成被动语态。上句指出出,Hans Sloane爵士希望将自己的收藏品向公众开放。所以,为了遵从他的遗愿,一众受托人——筹划这座博物馆。结合选项可知,assembled"集合"符合句意,故为正确答案。
