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. Market days【1】the crowded city even more crowded, as farmers from within a【2】of 24 or more kilometers brought their sheep, vegetables, cider and other products for direct sale to the【3】. The High Street Market was continuously【4】throughout the period until 1736,【5】it【6】from Front Street to Third. By 1745 New Market was opened on Second Street. The next year the Callow Hill Market began【7】.
Along with market days, the【8】of twice-yearly fairs persisted in Philadelphia【9】after similar trading days had been discontinued in other colonial cities. The【10】provided a means of bringing handmade goods from【11】places to would-be buyers in the city. Linens and stockings from Germantown,【12】, were popular items.
Auctions were another popular【13】 of trade. Because of the competition, retail【14】opposed these as well as the fairs.【15】governmental attempts to eradicate fairs and auctions were less than successful, the ordinary【16】of economic development was on the merchants’side, as increasing business specialization became the【17】of the day. Export merchants became differentiated from their importing counterparts, and specialty shops began to appear【18】general stores selling a variety of goods.
One of the reasons Philadelphia’s merchants prospered was because the surrounding area was undergoing tremendous economic and demographic growth. They did their business,【19】, in the capital city of the province,【20】to not only the governor and his circle, but citizens from all over the colony.
选项
A、command
B、order
C、recommendation
D、sequence
答案
B
解析
本题要求考生根据上下文选择符合原文含义的名词。本题看似考词义辨析,其实不然;本题考查的是固定搭配the order of the day,填入B选项order后,该句就清楚的解释经济发展路线偏重于商家的原因——商业分化被提上了议事日程。因此B选项正确。
