In the early 1450s cultural change in Europe fueled a growing
need for the rapid and cheap production of written documents.
Before this time, scribal monks hand-copied sacred texts for
centuries. But for the secular world began to develop and 【M1】______
distribute new forms of sacred texts, the scribes could not keep up
the demand. Johannes Gutenberg, a goldsmith and businessman 【M2】______
from southern Germany, foresees the profit-making potential for a 【M3】______
printing press that used movable metal type, and borrowed money
to develop that we know now as the modern printing press. He 【M4】______
developed his press by combing features of existed technologies: 【M5】______
textile, papermaking and wine presses.
Perhaps his most significant innovation, therefore, was the 【M6】______
efficient molding and casting of movable metal type. Gutenberg
designed a Latin print Bible which became his most famous
work. Despite of the dramatic success of his printing press, 【M7】______
Gutenberg managed to default on a loan and lost his whole printing
establishment. His techniques were made publicly and his creditor 【M8】______
won the rights to the proceeds from the Gutenberg Bibles.
In 1476, William Caxton set up England’s first printing
press. Caxton had been a prolific translator and found the printing
press to be a marvelousway to expand his mission of promoting
unpopular literature, the innovation of the printing press ultimately 【M9】______
influenced art, literature, philosophy and politics. Today,
print is thought of as one of the markers of key historical shifts in 【M10】______
communication, creating a social and intellectual transform.
【M1】
选项
答案
for改成as/because
解析
but for意为“倘使,假如”,用在此处显然文意不通,从上下文判断,此处应为表示原因的连词,but为转折,句意为:“但是由于世俗世界中开始出现和散布新形式的圣书,手抄本已跟不上需求”。for引导原因从句时,是不可以放在句首的,故将for改为as或是because。
