【B19】
选项
A、for all
B、above all
C、at all
D、after all
答案
D
解析
本题要求考生根据上下文选择符合原文含义的词组。本题空格内的词组体现了前后句间的逻辑关系,因此应该综合考虑语境内容。该段主旨句已经说明:费城商户的繁荣原因之一是周边地区经济和人口的增长。简单地说费城商业发展与周边发展有关。后一句详细阐述周边如何促进费城商业发展。文中They did their business, 19 ,in the capital city of theprovince, …to not only the governor and his circle, but citizens from all over the colony. “他们……在省会城市(费城)经商不仅迎合地方管理层,还能做全殖民地区百姓的生意”,选项[D]after all(毕竟)能体现出条件关系。
