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.

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.

E) striking F) mediated G) originally H) perpetual
I) eventually J) emerging K) gesture L) mistreatment
M) abolish N) parade O) practically [br] 【C10】
选项
答案
I
解析
空格在连词and之后,在谓语动词led to之前,故应为副词。led to与前面的happened为并列谓语,这两个动作在时间上有先后之分,且led to常用于引出事件的结果或结论,据此判断此处最佳选择是eventually。
