Most are still unwilling to cut these old ties, chiefly for financial
reasons. Since 1990, Britain has provided its dependencies with £ 153 million
in aid, and for many this money is a lifeline. Even Britain’s rich 【M9】 ________.
territory, Bermuda ,wants to maintain its links with the UK. In

选项
答案
to ∧ third:a or one
解析
这段文章选自Nick Square’s“Britain’s Distant Duty.”答题者应该避免只看错误存在处,结合上下文,理解全篇大意。“世界三分之一人口;为“a third of the world’s population.”“三分之一”为“fraction”,可以写为one third,or a third,故此处可有两种答案供参考。
