问题   The ways of history are so intricate and the motivations of human actions
so complex that it is always hazardous to attempt to represent events cover 【M1】______
a number of years, a multiplicity of persons, and distant localities as the
expression of one intellectual and social movement; yet the historical process 【M2】______
which culminates in the ascent of Thomas Jefferson to the presidency   【M3】______
can be regarded as the outstanding example not only of the birth of a new
way of life but nationalism as a new way of life. The American Revolution  【M4】______
represents the link between the seventeenth century, in which modem England
became conscious of itself, and the awakening of modem Europe in the   【M5】______
end of the eighteenth century. It may seem strange that the march of history
should have to cross the Atlantic Ocean, but only in the North American 【M6】______
colonies a struggle for civic liberty lead also to the foundation of a new 【M7】______
nation. Here, in the popular rising for a "tyrannical" government, the fruits  【M8】______
were more than the securing of a free constitution. They included the growth   【M9】______
of a nation born in liberty by the will of the people, not from the roots
of common descent, a geographic entity, or the ambitions of king or dynasty.

dim past of history but before the eyes of the whole world. [br] 【M9】
选项
答案 free改成freer
解析 逻辑错误。根据上下文，constitution(宪法，国体)在反抗中有可能变得自由一些，而绝对不可能是“自由”，因为只要是国家，就必然不会出现所谓的free constitution。此处应该使用 freer，显然是在和句子前半句的tyrannical做对比。
