问题     In any society, no matter how【C1】______, some individuals have authority【C2】______others, at least within a limited sphere. Obedience is particularly relevant as societies get more【C3】______, where the spheres【C4】______authority can be【C5】______, become much more differentiated. Teachers assign homework, doctors order intravenous feedings, and policemen stop automobiles【C6】______pupils, nurses, and motorists generally【C7】______. Their obedience is based on an【C8】______recognition that the persons who【C9】______the orders are operating within their【C10】______domain of authority. If this domain is【C11】______, obedience is unlikely. Policemen can’t order motorists to【C12】______lists of irregular French verbs or to【C13】______two aspirins and go to bed.
    Some tendency to obey authority is a vital cement that holds society together; without it, there【C14】______chaos. But the atrocities of this century — the slaughter of the Armenians, the Nazi death camps — give terrible proof that this disposition to obedience can also become a corrosive poison that destroys our sense of humanity. Some of these atrocities could not have been 【C15】______【C16】______the obedience of tens or hundreds of thousands and the acquiescence of many more. How could such obedience have come【C17】______? Attempt to answer this question has focused on【C18】______of the two factors. One【C19】______the personality structure of the blindly obedient individual; the other emphasizes the【C20】______situation in which the obedient person finds himself.
【C7】
选项 A、work
B、do
C、follow
D、obey
答案D
解析 篇章题。上下文理解题。本句从不同方面对一个问题——命令与服从的关系进行了说明，所涉及的人物一方面为教师等，另一方面为学生等；教师这方的人物order(命令)，那么与之相对的人物的行为一定为obey(服从)。而且接下来的一句中随即就出现了obedience，更是明确了两者之间的这种关系。obey可做不及物动词，文章此处为不及物动词用法，因此，无论从句意上还是用法上来说，都符合题意，为正确答案。work表“工作，劳动”。do是一个弱化了的动词，可表很多动词的意义，但主要表对某一动作、行为的执行。因此，此两项均与旬意不符。follow也可表“服从”，但为及物动词，后面必须跟宾语，如：follow therules遵守规则。因此，也不能选。
