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.

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。
