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.

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.

What is certain is that this【C17】______is a danger to the nation.

A、invisible
B、inaccurate
C、impossible
D、independent

解析
上文提到,白人认为对他们的歧视超过了对黑人的歧视,而上一句的现实是黑人仍旧是美国人当中最贫困、最受隔离以及失业率最高的群体,因此可推断白人对这种现实的无视,故选A项invisible“看不到的”。
