Small communities, with their distinctive character—where life is stable and intensely human—are disappearing. Some have【C1】______from the face of the earth, others are dying slowly, but all have【C2】______changes as they have come into contact with an【C3】______machine civilization. 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【C4】______in the modem world in distinctive, small communities. They have resisted the homogenization【C5】______more successfully than others. 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.

A)accessing I)progress
B)conveniences J)respective
C)destined K)survived
D)expanding L)terminals
E)industrialized M)undergone
F)perceived N)universal
G)practice O)vanished
H)process [br] 【C5】
选项
答案
H
解析
空格位于整个句子的宾语部分,据此判断应填入名词。根据句意“阿米什人比其他人更成功地抗拒了同质化——”可知,H)process“过程”符合语境,为正确答案。在备选项中,conveniences意为“便利”,progress意为“进步”,terminals意为“终端”,均不能与homogenization搭配使用,故排除。
