问题    The loudest outcry about poverty seemed to come in the wealthiest country by far in the world. According to most calculations, 【S1】most of that period the United States had a standard of living well 【S2】Europe’s and many times above the world 【S3】. Yet protests about grinding poverty, hunger, and dreadful need 【S4】more from the United States than from countries with one-fortieth of their living 【S5】. An annual per capita income of about 500 dollars is 【S6】of much of Africa and Asia and not a little of South America. It would seem strange to these people that American radicals demand a 【S7】from an American commitment to the far comers of the globe so that the money thus saved can be spent 【S8】the standard of living of 【S9】Americans. What this last point suggests is not so much that human 【S10】are never to be satisfied though this is doubtlessly true, and the American suburbanite (郊区居民) 【S11】of his second car and his color TV suffers just as 【S12】as an African farmer in need of a second cow and a screen door. Rather, it suggests the 【S13】of contemporary breach of social 【S14】—the emancipation of the individual self. People have learned to consider any 【S15】to personal fulfillment as a(n) 【S16】insult. They have greatly expanded the circle of self-awareness. They no longer accept sharp limitations on individual desires in the 【S17】of the group. The amount of potential human discontent has always been 【S18】—misery, failure, misfitting, bitterness, hatred, envy 【S19】telling. It has usually failed of 【S20】, and in the past it was accepted passively as being beyond help.
