C.individual Americans can influence the economy in multiple ways

参考答案

C

答案解析

【设题处】并列处设题
【解析】选[C]。分析本段内容可知,首句即是主题句,后面的句子属于developing sentences,是具体说明主题句的内容。末段首句指出,在混合型经济中,个人不仅可以通过作为消费者进行的选择引导经济,也可以通过为出台经济政策 的官方投票来引导经济,[C](个人可以通过多种方式影响经济)表述正确,故为答案。[A]中的individual citizens与原 文的consumers不符;[B]片面地夸大了the government的作用;[D]与本段末句的后半句意思相反。

2 Questionsare based on the following passage.
  Social change is more likely to occur in societies where there is a mixture of different kinds of people than in societies where people are similar in many ways. The simple reason for this is that there are more different ways of looking at things present in the first kind of society. There are more ideas, more disagreements in interest, and more groups and organizations with different beliefs. In addition, there is usually a greater worldly interest and greater tolerance in mixed societies. All these factors tend to promote social change by opening more as of life to decision. In a society where people are quite similar in many ways, there are fewer occasions for people to see the need or the opportunity for change because everything seems to be the same. And although conditions may not be satisfactory, they are at least customary and undisputed.
  Within a society, social change is also likely to occur more frequently.and more readily in the material aspects of the culture than in the nonmaterial, for example, in technology rather than in values; in what has been learned later in life rather than what was learned early; in the less basic and less emotional aspects of society than in their opposite; in the simple elements rather than in the complex ones; in form rather than in substance; and in elements that are acceptable to the culture rather than in strange elements.
  Furthermore, social change is easier if it is gradual. For example, it comes more readily in human relations on a continuous scale rather than one with violent changes. This is one reason why change has not come more quickly to Black Americans as compared to other American minorities, because of the sharp difference in appearance between them and their .white counterparts.The following factors tend to promote social change except___________
A.different kinds of people
B.different points of view
C.different interests
D.different conditions
A.more respect for different beliefs and behaviors 
B.quicker adaptation to changing circumstances
C.greater willingness to accept social change
D.greater readiness to agree to different opinions and ideas
