Is anti-white bias a problem? A new study says whites think discrimination against them is a bigger problem than anti-black bias. They feel threatened by "【C1】______racism".
In what some have called the new post-racial era, what constitutes discrimination is【C2】______. A new study has found that Americans think significant progress has been made in the fight【C3】______anti-black bias. But white Americans【C4】______that progress as coming at their【C5】______and that anti-white bias has become a more【C6】______social problem than anti-black bias. White Americans see blacks’ progress as a(n) 【C7】______of their status.
Is this finding surprising? Do we see this view【C8】______in government policies or court decisions? If so, how?
Our recent research【C9】______that white and black Americans agree that bias against blacks was【C10】______in the 1950’s and 1960’s. And many Americans support the march【C11】______full and equal rights for all.【C12】______when blacks see such racism as continuing, whites【C13】______to see it as a problem that has been more or less "solved".
Many whites now believe that it’s anti-white bias that’s on a rise, to the point where it’s even more【C14】______than anti-black bias.
Why would the perception of anti-white bias have increased【C15】______among whites, particularly in recent years? The answer is still【C16】______. What is certain is that this【C17】______is a danger to the nation In fact, for all the gains of the civil rights movement, blacks【C18】______among the poorest, most isolated and most unemployed of all Americans. But such reality is【C19】______to white fellow citizens who are【C20】______instead by fantasies of competitive vic-timhood.
【C18】
选项
A、keep
B、hold
C、maintain
D、remain
答案
D
解析
四个选项都有“保持,维持”的意思,但A项keep与B项hold不能和后面的among搭配。maintain和remain的意思及用法都很接近,具有很大的干扰性,但C项maintain是及物动词,句型是“主语+maintain sth.”,即通过另一事物或作用使其保持不变。而remain是不及物动词,句型是“sth.remains+表语”,即事物自身维持不变。由于空格前的主语是blacks,指的是黑人自身的情况,所以用D项remain“保持”。
