The American Revolution was not a revolution in the sense of a radical or total change. It was not a sudden and violent overturning of the political and social framework, such as later occurred in France and Russia, when both were already independent nations. Significant changes were ushered in, but they were both breathtaking. What happened was accelerated evolution rather than outright revolution. During the conflict itself people went on working and praying, marrying and playing. Most of them were not seriously disturbed by the actual fighting, and many of the more isolated communities scarcely knew that a war was on.
America’ s War of Independence heralded the birth of modern nations. One was Canada, which received its first large influx of English-speaking population form the thousands of loyalists who fled there from the United States. Another was Australia, which became a penal colony now that America was no longer available for prisoners and debtors. The third newcomer——the United States——based itself squarely on republican principles.
Yet even the political overturn was not so revolutionary as one might suppose. In some states, notable Connecticut and Rhode Island, the war largely ratified a colonial self-rule already existing. British officials, everywhere ousted, were replaced by a home - grown governing class, which promptly sought a local substitute for king and Parliament.
What will the paragraph following the passage most probably discuss?
选项
A、The transport of prisoners to Australia.
B、The creation of new state governments.
C、Events leading up to the American Revolution.
D、How Canada and the United States became friends.
答案
B
解析
文章最后一段的内容是围绕政治问题展开的,由此可推断出接下来可能要谈论的是相关或类似的话题,因此答案为B。
