选项 A、Likewise
B、Furthermore
C、Whereas
D、Even though
答案 B
解析 语篇衔接题。上文提到“黑人们能够找到的工作主要局限于家政和农耕”；本句说“自由黑人可以做的工作主要在波士顿、费城、纽约这几所城市”；显然，这两句之间是递进关系：不仅工种受限，而且连地域也受限。因此，引导递进关系的[B]Furthermore“此外，另外”为正确答案。[A]Likewise“同样地”，表示相似性的比较，与原文不符，应排除；[C]whereas“然而”，为连词，而本句要求填入副词，所以该项无论从语法上还是从意义上，都不符合要求；[D]Even though“尽管”，与原文意义不符。
