【C1】______some nineteenth century New Yorkers said "Harlem", they meant almost all of Manhattan above Eighty-sixth Street. Toward the end of the century,【C2】______, a group of citizens in upper Manhattan—【C3】______perhaps, to【C4】______a closer and more【C5】______sense of community—designated a section that they wished to have known as Harlem. The chosen area was the Harlem【C6】______Blacks were moving in the first decades of the new century as they left their old settlements on the middle and lower blocks of the West Side.
As the community became predominantly Black, the【C7】______word "Harlem" seemed to lose its old meaning. At【C8】______it was easy to forget that "Harlem"was【C9】______the people from Holland, and【C10】______for most of its three centuries—it was first settled in the sixteen hundreds—it had been【C11】______by White New Yorkers. "Harlem" became synonymous【C12】______Black life and Black style in Manhattan. Blacks living there used the word【C13】______they had coined it【C14】______—not only to【C15】______their area of residence but to express their【C16】______of the various qualities of its life and atmosphere. As the years passed, "Harlem"【C17】______an even larger meaning.

By 1919, Harlem’s population had grown by several thousand. Some of the new arrivals merely lived in Harlem; it was New York【C19】______they had come to, looking for jobs and for all the other legendary opportunities of life in the city. To others who migrated to Harlem, New York was merely the city in which they found themselves: Harlem was exactly【C20】______they wished to be [br] 【C17】
选项
A、assume
B、assert
C、assemble
D、assign
答案
A
解析
词义辨析题 assert是“肯定,断定”;assume指“开始具有某种(品质或形象等)”,强调的是一个从无到有的发展过程;assemble是“集合,聚集,收集”;assign是指分配给某人一部分工作去做或一份东西去使用。此处指“Harlem”这个词具有更广泛的含义,故选A。
