问题     It is clear that we are rapidly becoming a global culture. New forms of information technology, intercontinental travel, and the complex nature of economics are all elements in such a change. Japan, an ancient 【C1】________culture, now dominates the West economically while its own traditional【C2】________is rapidly becoming【C3】________in the process.
    It does not take a great deal of analysis to see the vast interchanges of cultural influences in the world today. The thirst for【C4】________fashions, popular music, and the other demands of consumer culture【C5】________great inroads in non-Western lands while the West seeks out everything from the religious traditions of the East【C6】________the art and music these countries produce. In the field of【C7】________, to cite one conspicuous example, contemporary readers seek books【C8】________those of the West. Latin American authors, as well as those from Africa and Asia, now find appreciative audiences. A【C9】________culture does not mean a unitary or "one world" culture. It does mean that people are increasingly aware of the diversity of culture. World events enter our living rooms so that things that may once have been【C10】________of as distant【C11】________now greet us immediately and in color. We may watch those events on a television made in Japan while wearing clothes sewn in Thailand and shoes made in Hungary while snacking【C12】________food grown in Mexico. Such an economic interdependence reflects the reality of a global banking system, the globalization of the economy, and the increasing【C13】________of information and information technologies.
    【C14】________has this shrinking of distances (and attitudes) become more clear than in the academic debates over what constitutes a liberal【C15】________education today. Is it possible (or desirable) to have the Western core of humanities【C16】________the center-piece of a curriculum? The place of non-Western and non-traditional cultures as part of the general【C17】________of a student is hotly argued in educational circles. The very fact of that discussion【C18】________to the emergence of a global consciousness with a continued shrinking of parochial attitudes. The【C19】________that such globalization is hotly debated only emphasizes the profound nature of the【C20】________taking place in our culture. [br] 【C4】
选项 A、strange
B、Oriental
C、orthodox
D、Western
答案 D
解析 while的前后分句表示对比的关系，后半句说的是西方学习东方，所以“东方人对于西方时尚、流行音乐和其他消费者文化的渴求”应该是前半句表达的内容，所以选D。
