As Philadelphia grew from a small town into a city in the first half of the eighteenth century, it became an increasingly important marketing center for a vast agricultural hinterland.

【B14】
选项
A、merchants
B、farmers
C、government
D、citizens
答案
A
解析
本题要求考生根据上下文选择符合原文含义的名词。Because of the competition,retail 14 opposed these as well as the fairs.句中these指auctions,本句可理解为“由于竞争,零售……反对拍卖和集市”,选项[A]merchants(商人)和retail搭配最恰当;而且从后文可以看出,政府也曾试图取缔集市和拍卖,经济发展偏向于商人(on the merchants’side),从而印证了空格里的内容应该是merchants。
