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.
【C2】
选项 A、up
B、on
C、over
D、on
答案C
解析 词汇题。惯用法题。介词over常用来表“高于……，在……之上”的含义，可指位置、地位、职权、势力等，如：He ruled overthe kingdom and，of course，he had the finalsay．他统治这个王国，当然他有决定权。此处指高于他人的权威，因此，此选项为正确答案。up做介词时也可表“高处”，但主要指位置的高度，即从一个较低处走向一个更高处，如：He went up the hill alone．他独自一人往山上走去。on表方位，一般指在某物体的表面上。to一般表朝向某个目标或方位。此两个选项都不能表达句意。
