  托福阅读句子插入题:Characteristics of Roman Pottery

  ■Only rarely can we derive any “real” quantities from deposits of broken pots. ■However, there is one exceptional dump, which does represent a very large part of the site’s total history of consumption and for which an estimate of quantity has been produced. ■On the left bank of the Tiber River in Rome, by one of the river ports of the ancient city, is a substantial hill some 50 meters high called Monte Testaccio. ■It is made up entirely of broken oil amphorae, mainly of the second and third centuries A.D. It has been estimated that Monte Testaccio contains the remains of some 53 million  amphorae, in which around 6,000million liters of oil were imported into the city from overseas, imports into imperial Rome  were supported by the full might of the state and were therefore quite exceptional----but the size of the operations at  Monte Testaccio, and the productivity and complexity that lay behind them, nonetheless cannot fail to impress. This was a society with similarities to modern one----moving goods on a gigantic scal, manufacturing high-quality containers to do so, and occasionally, as here, even discarding them on delivery.(Characteristics of Roman Pottery)

  Look at the four squares [■] that indicate where the following sentence could be added to the passage.

  That is because residents of a city did not usually discard used pottery at the same site over a long period of time.

  Where would the sentence best fit?
