The great chariot of society, which for so long had run down the gentle slope of tradition, now found itself powered by an internal combustion engine. Transactions and gain【1】a new and startling【2】force.
What forces could have been【3】powerful to smash a comfortable and【4】world and institute in its place this new society? There was no single massive【5】It was not great events, single adventures, individual laws, or charming【6】which【7】about the economic revolution. It was a process of internal growth.
First, there was the gradual emergence of national political【8】in Europe. A second great current of change was to be found in the slow decay of the religious spirit under the【9】of the skeptical, inquiring, humanist views of the Italian Renaissance. Still another【10】current lies in the slow social changes that eventually【11】the market system possible. In the【12】of this change, power naturally began to gravitate into the hands of those who understood money matters—the merchants.

选项
A、lure
B、cause
C、reply
D、reason
答案
B
解析
“cause原因,起因”,往往指的是客观原因,有客观根据,符合题意。最大的干扰项为选项D“reason原因,理由”,但reason一般指的是主观推理,未必是客观事实,而前文的force则是客观因素,因此不合题意,而选项A“lure吸引力,诱惑力,魅力”和选项C“reply回答,答复”均不符合题意。
