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] 【C7】
选项
答案
E
解析
空格位于单数名词America之前,据此判断应填入形容词。备选项中只有E)industrialized“工业化的”能修饰America,为正确答案。本句含义为“阿米什人已经和工业化的美国共存了250多年”。在备选项中,destined意为“注定的”,respective意为“各自的”,universal意为“全体的,普遍存在的”,均不符合语境,故排除。
