Also, the Dutch, English, Spanish, and French were beginning to【C2】______global empires.【C3】______and trade produced a【C4】______merchant class that helped to【C5】______an increasing desire for such【C6】______as wine, coffee, tea, cocoa, and tobacco. These merchants set a【C7】______of life aspired to by the wider populace.【C8】______the beginning of the 18th century, capital resources and banking systems were well enough established in Great Britain to【C9】______investment in mass-production【C10】______that would satisfy some of these middle-class aspirations.

选项
A、within
B、before
C、between
D、onto
答案
A
解析
选项A表示“在……之内”。根据上下文,从1740年到1793年之间不到100年的时间里,所以应填入“within”,即:“在后来的100年内”。而选项B“before在……之前”,选项C“between在……之间”,选项D“onto在……之上”均不符合题意。
