As Philadelphia grew from a small town into a city in the first half of the eighteenth century, it became an increasingly important marketing center for a vast agricultural hinterland. Market days【1】the crowded city even more crowded, as farmers from within a【2】of 24 or more kilometers brought their sheep, vegetables, cider and other products for direct sale to the【3】. The High Street Market was continuously【4】throughout the period until 1736,【5】it【6】from Front Street to Third. By 1745 New Market was opened on Second Street. The next year the Callow Hill Market began【7】.
Along with market days, the【8】of twice-yearly fairs persisted in Philadelphia【9】after similar trading days had been discontinued in other colonial cities. 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.
One of the reasons Philadelphia’s merchants prospered was because the surrounding area was undergoing tremendous economic and demographic growth. They did their business,【19】, in the capital city of the province,【20】to not only the governor and his circle, but citizens from all over the colony.
选项
A、therefore
B、hardly
C、still
D、even
答案
D
解析
本题要求考生判断空格前后两个部分的逻辑关系。面对这种题目,一定要将空格前后的信息进行简化,从而排除干扰,突显前后的逻辑关系。文中the institution of twice-yearly fairs persisted in Philadelphia (9) after similar trading days had been discontinued in other colonial cities句子修饰成分繁杂,简要地理解为“费城的集市制度保留了下来,______在其他地方废止相似交易后(费城仍然保留该制度)”,或者更简单的理解为“费城保留,______其他地方废止后(费城仍然保留)”。可见此处需要填入加强语气的词。填入even可以起到加强语气的作用,意思是:甚至其他城市废除相似贸易日后,费城还保留了一年两次的集市制度。因此D选项even正确。
