The merging of diverse peoples into a common mass has produced tension among members of the minorities and the majority alike.
The Old Order Amish, who arrived on American shores in colonial times, have (29 in the modem world in distinctive, small communities.

In planting and harvest time one can see their bearded men working the fields with horses and their women hanging out the laundry in neat rows to dry.

全文翻译
小社区有其自身特点——那里的生活稳定且十分人性化——然而这种小社区正在消失。其中一些已经从地球表面(26)消失了,另一些正在慢慢消亡,但它们全都在接触(28)扩张的机器文明的过程中(27)经历了改变。
不同类型的人融入普通人群之中,同时造成了少数群体成员与普通大众成员之间的紧张。
阿米什人在殖民时期就来到了美国,他们在现代世界中以有特色的小社区形式(29)幸存下来。他们比其他人更成功地抗拒了同质化(30)过程。在播种和收获的季节,人们可以看见留着胡子的阿米什男人带着马匹在田间工作,阿米什女人把洗好的衣服挂得整整齐齐晾出来。很多美国人都曾在火车站和汽车(31)里见过带着黑色宽边帽子的阿米什男人,和穿长裙的阿米什女人。虽然阿米什人已经和(32)工业化的美国共存了250多年,但是他们努力淡化美国对他们的个人生活、家庭、社区和价值观造成的影响。
阿米什人经常被美国人(33)看作过去岁月的遗留,他们过着简单、刻板的生活,并将这种生活方式当作对不方便的、旧式习俗的献礼。人们认为阿米什人放弃了现代的(34)便利和追求成功、进步的美国梦。多数人不会因为阿米什人沿用古老方法做事而产生异议。在战争期间,阿米什人这种小心谨慎的不融合被美国大众所容忍,毕竟他们是(35)践行劳动和节俭美德的好农民。

详解详析
vanished。空格位于句子的谓语动词位置,在have之后,据此判断应填入动词的过去分词形式,且此动词应为不及物动词。根据句意“其中一些小社区已经从地球表面________了,另一些……”可知,答案为O.vanished“消失”。在备选项中,perceived意为“把……看作,认为”,survived意为“幸存,生还”,undergone意为“经受,经历”,均不符合文意,故排除。
