问题    By 1830 the former Spanish and Portuguese colonies had become independent nations. The roughly 20 million【C1】______of these nations looked【C2】______to the future. Born in the crisis of the old regime and Iberian Colonialism, many of the leaders of independence【C3】______the ideals of representative government, careers【C4】______to talent, freedom of commerce and trade, the【C5】______to private property, and a belief in the individual as the basis of society.【C6】______there was a belief that the new nations should be sovereign and independent states, large enough to be economically viable and integrated by a【C7】______set of laws. On the issue of【C8】______of religion and the position of the Church,【C9】______, there was less agreement【C10】______the leadership. Roman Catholicism had been the state religion and the only one【C11】______by the Spanish crown.【C12】______most leaders sought to maintain Catholicism【C13】______the official religion of the new states, some sought to end the【C14】______of other faiths. The defense of the Church became a rallying【C15】______for the conservative forces. The ideals of the early leaders of independence were often egalitarian, valuing equality of everything.

【C11】

选项 A、allowed
B、preached
C、granted
D、funded

答案A

解析 语义衔接题。本句意为:罗马天主教一直是国教,是西班牙王室准许的唯一宗教。此句与前一句中的“宗教自由”相对。由此句中的only可推断,西班牙王室只承认罗马天主教。各个选项中只有allowed有“允许”之意,故为正确答案。C项granted表示“准予,给予”,为强干扰项,但其所接的间接宾语应当是该动作发出者能力范围或自身特点所拥有的东西。此句中, “天主教”并非源自西班牙王室,故而王室无法赋予他人某种宗教,故C项不合适。因此,A项正确。
