A great deal of nonsense is written about the character of a
nation, chiefly because many observers, influenced by national
pride and prejudices, feeling irresistibly tempted to generalize 【M1】______
about everything. In a nation of many millions of people, there
bound to be many different kinds: rich and poor, clever and 【M2】______
stupid, good and bad, modest and conceited, patient and
impatient, honest and dishonest. However, a nation may develop a 【M3】______
sort of collective character in its politics and literature which is
not recognizable in individual people. Generalizations therefore
tend to be realistic, and should be made and accepted with 【M4】______
caution.
One word of warning is necessary. The British people take 【M5】______
up appointments in Asia and Africa are not fully typical of their
nation. For one thing, they and their families live a completely
different life from in Britain. For another thing, they are usually 【M6】______
specialists in one field or another. The average British person is
not a specialist, and because he can read and write he is not 【M7】______
particularly cultured in the intellectual sense. "Highbrow" is a
word very often used by the common people of Britain to
describe and condemn any form of intellectual culture.
Moreover, the great technical achievements of Europeans do not
mean that a European is basically more intelligent than an
African or Asian. The achievements are due to the handing
down and sharing of knowledge and organized training and 【M8】______
research rather than to mental superiority; and of course the
merely possession of, say, a motor-car or washing-machine and 【M9】______
the ability to operate it, do not require any understanding of how 【M10】______
it works.
