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 elements 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, Asia, and India, 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] 【C3】
选项 A、popularized
B、humanized
C、westernized
D、generalized
答案 C
解析 语境搭配参照注释91和92；根据上下文分析：日本自己的传统文化在这一过程中正迅速地成为——。所填之词应与“在经济上支配着西方”意义相对，因此应填“westernized”，表示：而日本自己的传统文化在这一过程中正迅速地(变得)西化。因此C为答案。
