The United States became a rich industrial nation toward the end of the 1800s. There were more goods, more services, more jobs, and a higher【S1】______of living. There was more of everything, including problems. ’One problem was monopoly(垄断)-- that is, be the only seller of a certain line of【S2】______or a service. In some cases, several companies that manufactured the same product would agree not to【S3】______with one another. They would all agree to charge the same price. These arrangements made it impossible for【S4】______to shop around for lower prices for certain products.
Some people decided that【S5】______corporations had too much power and controlled too many markets. Because of their wealth and power, they could see to it that governments passed laws【S6】______to them. Many people believed that monopoly and price fixing were bad for customers and bad for the country so that they should be broken up.
【S7】______, the national government and some states passed laws that placed limits on corporations and big companies. These laws made it illegal for companies to make agreements to charge only a certain price. Later on the【S8】______government forced monopoly to be broken up. Such laws and government actions didn’t【S9】______do away with monopolies. Nor did they stop the growth of huge corporations. But they did【S10】______that American people had decided that some of the changes that had occurred were harmful.
A)favorable I)compete
B)finally J)huge
C)national K)products
D)entirely L)standard
E)show M)look
F)cooperate N)most
G)customers O)special
H)anywhere
【S7】
选项
答案
B
解析
根据文法和篇章知识,我们知道这里缺少一个插入语。插入语,也称作独立成分,通常表示上下文的逻辑关系或表示说话人的态度。上文说到"Many people believed...”(许多人认为统一价格对顾客和国家都是不利的,本句说到“... national government and some states passed laws...”(联邦政府和部分的州通过了法律……)。可见前者和后者构成因果关系。根据逻辑关系以及方框内的选项,我们可以确定[B] finally(最后)符合要求。
