The【10】provided a means of bringing handmade goods from【11】places to would-be buyers in the city. Linens and stockings from Germantown,【12】, were popular items.
Auctions were another popular【13】 of trade. Because of the competition, retail【14】opposed these as well as the fairs.【15】governmental attempts to eradicate fairs and auctions were less than successful, the ordinary【16】of economic development was on the merchants’side, as increasing business specialization became the【17】of the day. Export merchants became differentiated from their importing counterparts, and specialty shops began to appear【18】general stores selling a variety of goods.

C、at all
D、after all
答案

解析
本题要求考生根据上下文选择符合原文含义的词组。本题空格内的词组体现了前后句间的逻辑关系,因此应该综合考虑语境内容。该段主旨句已经说明费城商户的繁荣原因之一是周边地区经济和人口的增长。简单地说——费城商业发展与周边发展有关。后一句详细阐述周边如何促进费城商业发展。文中They did their business, (19) ,in the capital city of the province,...to not only the governor-and his circle,but citizens from all over。the colony.可以简化为“它们______在省会城市(费城)经商可以上下兼顾”,可见在费城经商是上下兼顾的条件,D选项after all能体现出条件关系。因此,D选项after all正确。
