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.

选项
A、Hence
B、But
C、Since
D、Thus
答案
B
解析
上半句是“黑人认为种族歧视还在继续”,下半句是“白人认为这个问题已或多或少得到了解决”,前后句是一种转折关系,表明了黑人与白人看法的分歧,故选B项But。
