There is a new revolution going on in Chilean society recently.【B1】_________The government is tackling the problem of teenage pregnancy by handing out morning-after pills to 14-year olds without their parents’ permission. A bill to allow terminally ill patients to choose a "merciful death" was recently introduced to the legislature, and there is growing momentum behind calls for a civil-union law that would extend the legal benefits of marriage to gay and unmarried heterosexual couples. The legal system is struggling under the weight of divorce suits—Chile only legalized divorce in 2004. In a society traditionally ruled by men, the President and half of her cabinet are women.
【B2】_________________
"This is the ideology of liberation from taboos, blocks, burdens and traumas that promises happiness for all. A happiness that never arrives" says Gonzalo Rojas, a law professor, columnist and self-declared supporter of former dictator General Augusto Pinochet. He summarizes the new social ethic as "I demand, the State grants, society accepts, and critics stay away," and he likens it to the "me" generation of the United States in the 1970s. He feels sorrow what he sees as the failure of the sustained economic growth promoted by Pinochet’s radical economic reforms to produce equivalent moral development.
【B3】___________________
He condemns liberals for wanting to put education and health under state control and for leaving personal morality to the individual.
【B4】____________________
Eugenio Tironi, an influential sociologist, sees it, perhaps ironically, as the outcome of Pinochet’s own economic liberalization policies. As prosperity grew, the society first rid itself of the General’s authoritarian rule, and then began to tackle some of the conservative shackles on personal freedom. Chilean society itself had become more liberal, he says. "What conservative society would dare elect as president a woman, a leftist, a victim of human rights violations, and an annulled mother?"
【B5】______________________
The Church remains a moral beacon for the nearly 80% of Chileans who call themselves Catholic, but even for many of them, its discourse is sometimes at odds with their lifestyles.
But even as a wave of social changes animates debates in the media, school board meetings and Sunday family lunches, a recent opinion survey by the MORI organization suggests Chile’s values may not be quite as liberal as the recent trends suggest. "People are more accepting of alternative lifestyles, but most regard their family and traditions as the most important, and oppose abortion," says Cristobal Huneeus, research director of MORI Chile.
[A] Nor is Rojas alone voice of despair. "This agenda goes against the fundamental values of the Christian Western society," says Marco Antonio Gonzalez, director of Fundacion Jaime Guzman E., a right-wing think tank.
[B] Her economics may be pretty conventional, but in the social sphere, Chile’s agnostic, no-longer-married-mother President Michele Bachelet is revolutionizing this traditionally conservative Catholic country.
[C] The institution most challenged by the new wave of social liberalization is the Catholic Church, which resisted the passing of a divorce law two years ago and has decried the availability of morning-after pills to teenagers.
[D] The liberals counter that the social changes being challenged from the right are products not of any government agenda, but simply of the increased personal freedom brought to Chile by economic growth and globalization.
[E] The way Chileans relate to authority has changed too. Their relationship now is horizontal rather than vertical.
[F] The Bachelet administration has canvassed expert and citizen opinion in the course of recent efforts at education and welfare reform.
[G] Hardly surprising, then, that right-wing conservatives see Bachelet’s government as a threat to traditional values.
【B1】
选项
答案
B
解析
第一段开头即提到智利国内正进行一场新改革(a new revolution…),而空格后又给出了改革的几个方面及总统的介绍。故此空应与这两者有关,B符合此条件。B介绍了总统米歇尔.巴切菜特的一些情况,并说明她正进行革命(revolutionizing),这与空格后的内容联系密切。同时,B开头的Her实际上指代的就是智利,与前文衔接。故本题选B。
