San Francisco【S3】______into a city overnight because of the nearby discovery of gold in 1848. A【S4】______rush to California took place. Wagon trains plodded their【S5】______way across 2,000 miles of prairie and mountains, while hundreds of sailing vessels made the【S6】______hazardous trip around the Horn.

选项
答案
B
解析
空格处应填入名词,due to表明后面的不定式是导致该名词目前情况的原因,不定式是说“好天气、安逸的生活、好吃的食物和众多的旅游景点”,这些应该是导致城市繁华景象的原因,所以应选择popularity,同时排除干扰项“pollution污染”。
