As the merchantman class expanded in the eighteenth century North 1.______.
American Colonies, the silversmith and the coppersmith businesses rose
to serve it. Quite a few silversmiths were available in New York or Boston 2.______
in the late seventeenth century, but in the eighteenth century they could
be found in all main colonial cities. No other colonial artisans rivaled the 3.______
silversmiths’ prestige. They handled the most expensive materials and
possessed direct connections to prosperous colonial merchants. Their
products, primarily silver plates and bowls, reflected their exalting status 4.______
and testified for their customers’ prominence. Silver stood as one of the 5.______
surest ways to store wealth at a time after neighborhood banks existed. 6.______
Unlike the silver coins from which they were made, silver articles were
readily identifiable. Often formed to individual specifications, they always
carried the silversmith’s distinctive markings and consequently could be
traced and retrieved. Customers generally secure the silver for the silver
object they ordered. They saved coins, took them to smiths, and discussed
the type of pieces they desired. Silversmiths complied to these requests 7.______
by melting the money in a small furnace, adding a bit of copper to form
a stronger alloy, and cast the alloy in rectangular blocks. They hammered 8. ______
these ingots to the appropriate thickness by hand, shaped them and pressed
designs into them for adornments. Engraving was also done by hand. 9.______

选项
答案
exalting——exalted
解析
本题为非谓语动词误用。exalt为及物动词,exalt sb.to sth.表示把某人提拔到某个岗位上;exalt sb./sth.意为高度赞扬。此处修饰的名词为status,只能充当exalt的宾语。而非主语,表示崇高的社会地位,因此exalt需转化为表示被动态的过去分词。
