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.
【C20】
选项 A、social
B、physical
C、psychological
D、mental
答案A
解析 篇章题。上下文理解题。本句中的重要路标词“One…；the other…”表明所谈为两个因素。其中一个因素为“个人的性格结构”(personality structure)，那么另一个就应该侧重于他们所处的社会环境，因此，social“社会的”符合题意，为最佳答案。physical意为“物质的，身体的”，如：Weshould improve our physical environment．我们应该改善我们的物质环境。psychological意为“心理的”，指心灵或情感的，或由其引起的，如：the psychological aspects of aproblem一个问题的心理诸方面。mental意为“精神上的，智力的，心理的”，如：Now greater importance should be attachedto the mental life of。human beings．现在我们应更加重视人的精神生活。其他几个选项都和个人的特殊情况相联系，与前面指出的个人的“个性结构”或多或少都有重叠之处，因此，均不是最佳答案。
