【B12】
选项
A、however
B、for example
C、moreover
D、in comparison
答案
B
解析
空格内所填信息为插入语,本句Linens and stockings from Germantown, 12 ,were popular items.和上一句The fairs provided a means of bringing handmade goods…之间的关系,上一句说明了集市的功能——能带来诸多手工商品;本句则提及了具体的两种手工商品“亚麻制品和长袜(Linens and stockings)”是走俏的商品(popular items)。可见,本句是在用具体的事例来印证上一句的观点,因此选项[B]for example正确。
