Many countries have a holiday to celebrate workers’ rights on or around May 1, but Labour Day in Canada is celebrated on the first Monday of September.
Canada’s Labour Day was【C1】______ celebrated in the spring but it was moved to the fall after 1894. The origins of Labour Day can be traced back to April 15, 1872, when the Toronto Trades Assembly organized Canada’s first significant【C2】______ for worker’s rights. The aim was to release the 24 leaders of the Toronto Typographical Union who were imprisoned for【C3】______ to campaign for a nine-hour working day. At this time, trade unions were still illegal and what they did was seen as a criminal conspiracy to【C4】______ trade. In spite of this, the Toronto Trades Assembly was already a significant organization and encouraged workers to form trade unions,【C5】______ in disputes between employers and employees and signaled the【C6】______ of workers.
There was【C7】______ public support for the demonstration and the authorities could no longer deny the important role that the trade unions had to play in the【C8】______ Canadian democratic society. A few months later, a similar demonstration was organized in Ottawa and passed the house of Canada’s first prime minister, Sir John Macdonald.
Later in the day, he appeared before the gathering and promised to【C9】______ all Canadian laws against trade unions. This happened in the same year and【C10】______ led to the founding of the Canadian Labour Congress in 1883.
A similar holiday, Labor Day is held on the same day in the United States of America, Canadian trade unions are proud that this holiday was inspired by their efforts to improve workers’ rights.
A) disrupt B) enormous C) lashed D) muttering
E) striking F) mediated G) originally H) perpetual
I) eventually J) emerging K) gesture L) mistreatment
M) abolish N) parade O) practically [br] 【C2】
选项
答案
N
解析
空格位于形容词之后,介词之前,应为名词。从下文可知加拿大劳动节起源于一场工人运动,填入此处的名词应与下一段第1句提到的demonstration同义,指一场“运动”或一次“罢工游行”,parade符合句意。
