In 1600 London and Amsterdam each had populations of more than 100,000, and twice that number【C1】______in Paris. Also, the Dutch, English, Spanish, and French were beginning to【C2】______global empires.【C3】______and trade produced a【C4】______merchant class that helped to【C5】______an increasing desire for such【C6】______as wine, coffee, tea, cocoa, and tobacco. These merchants set a【C7】______of life aspired to by the wider populace.【C8】______the beginning of the 18th century, capital resources and banking systems were well enough established in Great Britain to【C9】______investment in mass-production【C10】______that would satisfy some of these middle-class aspirations.
The Industrial Revolution【C11】______in England, because that nation had the technological means, government encouragement, and a large and varied trade【C12】______. The first factories【C13】______in 1740, concentrating on【C14】______production. In 1740 the majority of English people wore woolen garments, but【C15】______the next 100 years the rough, often waterlogged and unhealthy woolens were【C16】______by cotton—especially after the【C17】______of the cotton gin(轧棉机)by Eli Whitney, an American, in 1793.

This use of punched cards inspired the British mathematician Charles Babbage to attempt to【C19】______a calculating machine based on the same principle. Although this machine never became fully practical, it【C20】______the great computer revolution of the 20th century."
【C1】
选项
A、resided
B、assembled
C、removed
D、abandoned
答案
A
解析
选项A表示“(永久性地)居住”。根据文章一致性原则,“reside”与文章第一句中提到的“life生活”构成呼应。而选项B“集合,集会;装配,组装,涉及对象为人,强调为了明确的目的(使)一群人有组织地聚集到一起”和选项D“放弃;(不顾责任、义务等而)遗弃,抛弃”是本题的干扰,选项C“搬迁,移动,把本处于某一位置或地位的人或事移向一个新的地方”与原文意思相反,不符合题意。
