According to most calculations,【C1】______ most of that period the United States had a standard of living well【C2】______ Europe’s and many times above the world【C3】______ .

It would seem strange to these people that American radicals demand a【C7】______ from an American commitment to the far comers of the globe so that the money thus saved can be spent【C8】______ the standard of living of【C9】______ Americans. What this last point suggests is not so much that human 【C10】______ are never to be satisfied though this is doubtlessly true, and the American suburbanite (郊区居民)【C11】______ of his second car and his color TV suffers just as 【C12】______ as an African farmer in need of a second cow and a screen door. Rather, it suggests the【C13】______ of contemporary breach of social【C14】______ —the emancipation of the individual self.

The amount of potential human discontent has always been【C18】______ —misery, failure, misfitting, bitterness, hatred, envy【C19】______ telling. It has usually failed of【C20】______ , and in the past it was accepted passively as being beyond help. [br] 【C18】
