Historians have only recently begun to note the increase in
demand for luxury goods and services took place in eighteenth-century【M1】______
England. McKendrick has explored the Wedgwood firm’s remarkable
success in market luxury pottery; Plumb has written about the rapid【M2】______
increase of provincial theater, musical festivals, and children’s toys
and books. While the fact of this consumer revolution is hard in doubt,【M3】______
three key questions remain: Who were the consumers? What were their
motives? And what were the effects of the new demand for luxuries?
An answer to the first of these has been difficult to obtain. Since【M4】______
it has been possible to infer from the goods and services actually
produced that manufacturers and servicing trades thought their【M5】______
customers wanted, only a study of relevant personal documents
written by actual consumers will provide a precise picture of who
wanted what We still need to know how large this consumer market
was and how far down the social scale the consumer demand of luxury【M6】______
goods penetrating. With regard to this last question, we might note that【M7】______
Thompson, while rightly restoring laboring people to the stage of
eighteenth-century English history, has probably exaggerated the
opposite of these people to the sudden attacks of capitalist consumerism【M8】______
on general; for example, laboring people in eighteenth-century【M9】______
England ready shifted from home-brewed beer to standardized beer【M10】______
produced by huge, heavily capitalized breweries.
【M8】
选项
答案
opposite→opposition
解析
词汇错误。根据下文人们自己在家酿酒的例子,此处应该用opposition表示人们对资本主义消费思想的“反对,抵抗”,而opposite作名词时意思是“对立的事物”,与句意不符。
