The British Empire was once home to third of the 【M1】 ________.

territories now themselves as British colonial subjects. 【M2】 ________.
Britain’s imperial expansion, which continued for 400 years,

It was with the granting of independence to India in 1947 Britain 【M5】 ________.
started to dismantle its empire. It was relative easy to give independence 【M6】 ________.

to remain beyond British rule. 【M8】 ________.
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
has ∧ reversed:been
解析
弄清楚此句的意思是关键。most of the“dependant territories”require some fi- nancial support from Britain,与Britaindesired to acquire wealth from these countries相悖,所以应为has been re- versed被颠倒过来了。“reverse”为“to turn around to the opposite direction or position”颠倒。
