In 1600 London and Amsterdam each had populations of more than 100,000, and twice that number【C1】______in Paris. Also, the Dutch, English, Spanish, and French were beginning to【C2】______global empires.【C3】______and trade produced a【C4】______merchant class that helped to【C5】______an increasing desire for such【C6】______as wine, coffee, tea, cocoa, and tobacco. These merchants set a【C7】______of life aspired to by the wider populace.【C8】______the beginning of the 18th century, capital resources and banking systems were well enough established in Great Britain to【C9】______investment in mass-production【C10】______that would satisfy some of these middle-class aspirations.
The Industrial Revolution【C11】______in England, because that nation had the technological means, government encouragement, and a large and varied trade【C12】______. The first factories【C13】______in 1740, concentrating on【C14】______production.

This use of punched cards inspired the British mathematician Charles Babbage to attempt to【C19】______a calculating machine based on the same principle. Although this machine never became fully practical, it【C20】______the great computer revolution of the 20th century." [br] 【C18】
选项
A、discovered
B、nominated
C、introduced
D、miniaturized
答案
C
解析
选项C表示“介绍;引进”。根据原文意思:“在纺织过程中,其中一个最重要的新发明是Joseph Jacquard在1801年引进到法国的。”所以选“introduce”。而选项A“发现”,选项B“提名;任命”,选项D“使……小型化”均不符合原文意思。
