Explanation:

La pregunta trata sobre completar un texto relacionado con el movimiento de bibliotecas públicas y el legado de Franklin. La opción A ("sweep the nation in subsequent centuries") es lógica porque el texto menciona que el esfuerzo innovador sentó las bases para el movimiento de bibliotecas públicas más amplio, lo que implica que se extendió por la nación en siglos posteriores. Las otras opciones (B: cierre rápido, C: limitado a Filadelfia, D: colección privada) no encajan con la idea de un movimiento público y de largo plazo.

Answer:

A. sweep the nation in subsequent centuries
