Many countries have a holiday to celebrate workers’ rights on or around May 1, but Labour Day in Canada is celebrated on the first Monday of September.
Canada’s Labour Day was【C1】______celebrated in the spring but it was moved to the fall after 1894.

There was【C7】______public support for the demonstration and the authorities could no longer deny the important role that the trade unions had to play in the【C8】______Canadian democratic society. A few months later, a similar demonstration was organized in Ottawa and passed the house of Canada’s first prime minister, Sir John Macdonald. Later in the day, he appeared before the gathering and promised to【C9】______all Canadian laws against trade unions. This happened in the same year and【C10】______led to the founding of the Canadian Labour Congress in 1883.

答案
A
解析
空格在不定式标记to之后,应填入动词原形。空格所在句提到,当时工会所做的事情被视为“犯罪阴谋”,故空格的动词应带有消极含义。此处应选用disrupt,填入文中表示工会所做的事情被视为“妨碍贸易”的犯罪阴谋。
