The word "freedom" for many black Americans is
inextricably linked with the word "slavery." While it has 148 years【M1】______
since the Emancipation Proclamation, and 47 years since the
landmark Civil Rights Act, for many, the words of Martin Luther
King in his famous speech still ring real: "The Negro lives on a【M2】______
lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material
prosperity." Many black Americans still find themselves spiritually
and economically slaved on the figurative 21st-century plantation.【M3】______
Why is that still so? After all, for the last 47 years, our leaders
have passed on bill after bill ostensibly to free black Americans【M4】______
from the manacles of poverty and provide ever-stronger safety nets
for those disadvantaged. Because two very formidable forces have【M5】______
conspired over these last 47 years—almost the span of my
complete life—to shackle the economic freedoms and aspirations【M6】______
of the black community: liberal progressive policies, generally
supported by Democrats, and the socialist ideology espoused
by prominent blacks as Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson.【M7】______
This is always curious to me that black Americans typically【M8】______
vote Democrat, when it was a Republican president, Abraham
Lincoln, who issued the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863, and a
Republican from Ohio, Representative James Mitchell Ashley,
who came forth the bill to support an amendment to end slavery【M9】______
throughout the United States. Nearly 100 years late, when the【M10】______
initial Civil Rights Bill came before the full Senate in 1964, it was
a group of 18 Southern Democrats who argued most fervently
against its passage.
【M5】
选项
答案
Because—But
解析
语篇错误。由上下文语义判断,此句与前句应该是转折关系,而不是因果关系。前句提到美国领导人通过了一个又一个法案,以使美国黑人摆脱贫困的枷锁,并为弱势群体提供了更强大的安全网,本句则说两股强大的力量共同束缚着美国黑人的经济自由和远大抱负。前后形成鲜明的对照,故应该用表转折关系的连词替换Because。
