The word "brick" did not appear in the English language before the 15th century. Bricks 【C1】______ have been known in Britain before then, but they were not【C2】______ enough to be mentioned by any writer. We know that they were used in ancient Egypt, in India, and in the Roman【C3】______; they were used again in parts of Europe; but there is a strange【C4】______ in the history of brick-making which left Britain, at【C5】______, without bricks for building for several hundred years. When they did arrive in Britain, it was in a very【C6】______ way.
In the 15th century, Britain’s wool trade was【C7】______ flourishing, and shiploads of wool were exported to other countries, among them, Germany and Holland. These ships would have had to return empty, 【C8】______ their captains were able to pick up a【C9】______ cargo, and no captain likes an empty ship. For【C10】______ thing, it is difficult to【C11】______ in stormy weather; for another thing, it is a great waste of space. So【C12】______ than return home with an empty ship, the captains would【C13】______ up with anything, and at about this time, somebody had the idea of loading the home-bound ships with【C14】______. These were already being used【C15】______ in Holland and Germany, where the brick-makers were anxious to sell their surplus【C16】______.
These bricks must have been a godsend to the builders of London and southeast England. There was very【C17】______ building stone in that part of the country, and stocks of good building【C18】______ were running【C19】______. Bricks were first used for the big houses of rich people living in the countryside, and only later for town houses and 【C20】______ cottages.

B、because
C、until
D、while
答案
A
解析
本题考点为虚拟语气。
(1)句式分析。
原句是由and连接的并列句,前一个分句These ships would have had to return empty,______their captains…cargo是一个复杂句,该句的主句与从句之间缺乏一个引导状语从句的引导词。从主句的谓语would have had可见,该句为虚拟语气。
(2)句意判断。
本段所说的是船只返航时的状态。从主语可知,作者表达的是,船只不得不空着返航。
依据上下文,该句意为“如果船长不能找到货物,船只就不得不空着返航”。
【知识拓展】语法拓展:虚拟语气表假设的用法。
①动词的过去时形式表示与现在事实或者过去事实相反的主观愿望。
e.g.If only I had the book.
我要是有这本书就好了。
I wish I had bought roses.
我要是买了玫瑰花就好了。
②情态动词过去时表假设意义。
e.g.If you should give me a hand,do let me know.
如果你能帮我一把,务必让我知道。
