Social change is more likely to occur in societies where there is mixture of different kinds of people than in societies where people are similar in many ways. The simple reason for this is that there are more different ways of looking at things present in the first kind of society. There are more ideas, more disagreements in interest, and more groups and organizations with different beliefs. In addition, there is usually a greater worldly interest and greater tolerance in mixed societies. All these factors tend to speed up social change by opening more areas of life to decision. In a society where people are quite similar in many ways, there are fewer occasions for people to see the need or the opportunity for change because everything seems to be the same. And although conditions may not be satisfactory, they are at least customary and undisputed (无名争辩的).
Within a society, social change is more likely to occur more frequently and more readily in the material aspects of the culture than in the non-material, for example, in technology rather in values; in less basic and less emotional aspects of society than in their opposites; in form rather than in substance (本质); and in elements that are acceptable to the culture rather than in a strange element.
The expression "greater tolerance" means" ______ ".
选项
A、greater willingness to accept social change
B、quicker adaptation to changing circumstances
C、more respect for different beliefs and behaviors
D、greater readiness to agree to different opinions and ideas
答案
A
解析
语义理解题。此题关键在于理解tolerance在上下文的意思。上文提到,某些由不同种类的人构成的社会更易发生变化,其原因是在这些社会中存在more ideas,more disagreements in interest和more groups and organizations with different beliefs。可见这些社会中的人们对一些不同的想法和行为更宽容,更尊重,因此A“更愿意接受社会变化”为正确答案。
