reasons. Since 1990, Britain has provided its dependencies with £ 153 million

选项
答案
has ∧ reversed:been
解析
弄清楚此句的意思是关键。most of the“dependant territories”require some fi- nancial support from Britain,与Britaindesired to acquire wealth from these countries相悖,所以应为has been re- versed被颠倒过来了。“reverse”为“to turn around to the opposite direction or position”颠倒。
