The British Empire was once home to third of the 【M1】______
world’s population. But, with the return of Hong Kong and its six
million inhabitants to China, only 180,000 people in 12 populated
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】______
maintain the British navy’s control of the seas. Today, that flow
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】______
to the larger colonies - indeed, most campaigned vigorously for self - rule—
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】______
territory ,Bermuda, wants to maintain its links with the UK. In
a referendum in 1995 voters overwhelmingly rejected dependence. 【M10】______
Bermuda is Britain’s oldest colony and it earns much of its income
through banking and other financial services. [br] 【M10】
选项
答案
dependence: independence。
解析
继续依据上下文的连贯,不难发现错误所在。“referendum”为“the submission of a proposed public measure or actual statute to a direct popular vote”投票权;“overwhelming”为“of defeating completely”压倒一切的;“reject”为“to discard as defective or usuless;oppose”反对。
