Baltimore was founded in 1729. For a generation it seemed no different from a dozen other small settlements【C1】______up at the head of the Chesapeake Bays. Its claim【C2】______distinction consisted of a blacksmith’s shop, flour【C3】______, and tobacco warehouse. Yet Baltimore was【C4】______for a more dynamic future than its slow beginnings seemed to【C5】______Spurred by an agricultural revolution in the Maryland and Pennsylvania countryside【C6】______dramatic disruptions in the Atlantic economy, Baltimore at mid-century began to【C7】______. By 1799 it had risen to become the new Republic’s fourth largest city with【C8】______to overtake the three still【C9】______: New York, Philadelphia and Boston.【C10】______the Baltimore village of the Jeffersonian era looked utterly unlike the colonial village from【C11】______it had emerged, the two shared more than it might be apparent【C12】______the first glance. Baltimore’s economy had expanded tremendously, to be sure, but the same forces that sparked【C13】______around 1750 continued to【C14】______it fifty years later.【C15】______the establishment of new government at the state level in 1776, national level in 1788, and【C16】______level in 1797, the same irritating issues continued to attack its politics.

【C15】
选项
A、In respect to
B、Given
C、Considering
D、Despite
答案
D
解析
此题属于语篇连接题。此句的前半句提到各级政府的建立,然而句子的意思却是令人困扰的问题动摇着其政治,根据逻辑推理,前面的短语和句子的主要成分应是一种让步关系,故选项[D] Despite (尽管)正确。选项[A] In respect to 意为“与……有关”;选项[B] Given 意为“鉴于”,例如:Given the time available to us,we will have to submit the report in draft form.选项[C] Considering 意为“鉴于,考虑到”,例如:You did very well to lift all those books considering how small you are.
