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.

【C18】
选项
A、In other words
B、In a sense
C、By contrast
D、After ail
答案
A
解析
此题属于语篇连接题。前面一句假设了一种情况及其必然结果:巴市的各个方面,以1790年与1812年相比,其结果大致相同,下面是对这种结果的进一步解释,故选项[A]In other words (换句话说),起到了承上启下的作用,表明其对上文的解释关系。选项[B]In a sense 意为“从某种意义上说”;选项[C] By contrast 意为“相比较而言”,选项[D] After all意为“毕竟”。
