It was she, a Baltimore【C1】________ , who published the first official copies of the Declaration, the first copies that included the names of its signers and【C2】________ announced the support of all thirteen colonies.
Mary Goddard first got into printing at the age of twenty-four when her brother opened a printing shop in Providence, Rhode Island, in 1762. When he【C3】________ to get into trouble with his partners and creditors, it was Mary Goddard and her mother who were left to run the shop.

During the American Revolution, Mary Goddard continued to publish Baltimore’s only newspaper, which one historian【C9】________ was "second to none among the colonies".

选项
答案
J
解析
词义辨析题。根据词性,此处填入动词过去式。根据后面to do的结构,可选项有declared“宣布”,appeared“显现”,claimed“声称”,proceeded“开始”。结合后句get into trouble with his partners…“与合伙人发生纠纷”,以及下文中的follow her brother…again可推测玛丽的弟弟开始陷入逆境,故选proceeded。
