选项
A、fair
B、format
C、style
D、form
答案
D
解析
本题要求考生根据上下文选择符合原文含义的名词。Auctions were another popular13 of trade意为“拍卖是另外一种盛行的贸易……”。从该句中的another我们可以看出,auction是与上文所述内容并列的一种贸易活动,前文主要阐述了“集市贸易”,而且本段中多次出现“拍卖”和“集市”的并列结构(…these as well as the fairs.…to eradicate fairs and auc—tions),因此我们可以判断,拍卖和集市是并列关系,都属于贸易——。选项[D]form填人后符合语境要求,为正确答案。
