possessed direct connections to prosperous colonial merchants. Their
products, primarily silver plates and bowls, reflected their exalting status 4.______
and testified for their customers’ prominence. Silver stood as one of the 5.______
surest ways to store wealth at a time after neighborhood banks existed. 6.______
Unlike the silver coins from which they were made, silver articles were
readily identifiable. Often formed to individual specifications, they always

traced and retrieved. Customers generally secure the silver for the silver
object they ordered. They saved coins, took them to smiths, and discussed
the type of pieces they desired. Silversmiths complied to these requests 7.______

a stronger alloy, and cast the alloy in rectangular blocks. They hammered 8. ______
these ingots to the appropriate thickness by hand, shaped them and pressed

选项
答案
exalting——exalted
解析
本题为非谓语动词误用。exalt为及物动词,exalt sb.to sth.表示把某人提拔到某个岗位上;exalt sb./sth.意为高度赞扬。此处修饰的名词为status,只能充当exalt的宾语。而非主语,表示崇高的社会地位,因此exalt需转化为表示被动态的过去分词。
