阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。     The British Isles consist of two large islands. One is called Ireland and 1 Britain. Britain, or Great Britain, is the larger one of these two islands, and it is 2 into three parts: Scotland, Wales and England.     The United Kingdom is that part of the British Isles3 by the Queen. It is made up of Scotland, Wales and England, that is, the 4 of Britain, and also about one sixth of Ireland, the northern part. The 5 of Ireland is self-governing. The 6 name of the United Kingdom is 7 "The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland".     England is8and richer than Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland，and has the most 9 of the United Kingdom, so people often use the 10 "England" and "English" when they 11 "Britain" and "British". This sometimes makes the Scots and the Welsh a little 12. The Scots in particular are very 13 of their separate nationality. The Welsh too do not 14 themselves as the English, and have a culture and 15 a language of their own.     Ireland became part of the United Kingdom in 1801, but for forty years the "Irish 16 "was the greatest headache of the United Kingdom. 17, Ireland was divided into two: Northern Ireland still 18 to the United Kingdom, and in 1922 the rest of Ireland 19 to found an Irish Free State，later called Eire and now the Republic of Ireland.     The Republic of Ireland does not regard itself as part of Britain, and is not now even a supporter of the Commonwealth of Nations. Unlike the major Commonwealth countries, it did not lift a finger to 20 British in the Second World War and now wants the whole of Ireland to be a republic. （1） A . the one B . the other C . another D . other （2） A . divided B . cut C . broken D . separated （3） A . watched out B . taken up C . defended against D . ruled over （4） A . half B . part C . most D . whole （5） A . smaller B . bigger C . rest D . island （6） A . correct B . true C . full D . last （7） A . so B . therefore C . likely D . perhaps （8） A . meaner B . wider C . poorer D . larger （9） A . colleges B . officials C . cities D . population （10） A . words B . names C . spellings D . pronunciations （11） A . say B . cover C . show D . write （12） A . angry B . cautious C . enjoyable D . lonely （13） A . proud B . tired C . fond D . careful （14） A . respect B . rank C . elect D . regard （15） A . ever B . even C . seldom D . never （16） A .
