The ideas of the pragmatists were considered【C3】______when they first appeared. To some critics, pragmatism’ s【C4】______to affirm any absolute standards carried negative implications for society. 【C5】______, pragmatists do not believe that a single absolute idea of goodness or justice exists, but【C6】______that these concepts are changeable and depend on the【C7】______in which they are being discussed. The【C8】______of these absolutes, critics feared, could result in a(n) 【C9】______in moral standards. The pragmatists’ denial of absolutes, 【C10】______, challenged the foundations of religion, government, and schools of thought. 【C11】______, pragmatism influenced developments in psychology, sociology, and many other schools and movements. 【C12】______political groups have also drawn【C13】______the assumptions of pragmatism, from the progressive movements of the early 20th century to later experiments in social reform.
Pragmatism is best【C14】______in its historical and cultural context. It arose during the late 19th century, a period of rapid scientific advancement【C15】______by the theories of British biologist Charles Darwin, whose theories【C16】______to many thinkers that humanity and society are in a【C17】______state of progress.

【C7】
选项
A、domain
B、vicinity
C、context
D、surrounding
答案
C
解析
domain领域,疆土;vicinity附近;context语境,背景;sur—rounding周围的事物。根据原文可知,此处表达的意思是各种概念被讨论的语境、背景,是一个抽象而非实质的含义,四个选项中只有context可以表示抽象的背景,其他三个词都是指具体的物理概念,与原文意思不符,故选C。
