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,
was motivated by the desire to acquire the wealth, and to 【M3】 ________.

of wealth has reversed and most of the "dependent territories", 【M4】 ________.
as these colonies are known, require some financial support from Britain.
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】 ________.

but the small dependencies ,which were less economically viable, preferred 【M7】 ________.
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】 ________.

答案
beyond:under
解析
前面的意思理解了,这一处应该很容易被发现为“在英国统治之下”,because these less-economically-capable dependencies need support from Britain。
