Social change is more likely to occur in societies where there is a mixture of different kinds of people than in societies where people are similar in many ways. The simple reason for this is that there are more different ways of looking at things present in the first kind of society. There are more ideas, more disagreements in interest, and more groups and organizations with different beliefs. In addition, there is usually a greater worldly interest and greater tolerance in mixed societies. All these factors tend to promote social change by opening more as of life to decision. In a society where people are quite similar in many ways, there are fewer occasions for people to see the need or the opportunity for change because everything seems to be the same. And although conditions may not be satisfactory, they are at least customary and undisputed.
Within a society, social change is also likely to occur more frequently and more readily in the material aspects of the culture than in the non-material, for example, in technology rather than in values; in what has been learned later in life rather than what was learned early; in the less basic and less emotional aspects of society than in their opposite; in the simple elements rather than in the complex ones; in form rather than in substance; and in elements that are acceptable to the culture rather than in strange elements.
Furthermore, social change is easier if it is gradual. For example, it comes more readily in human relations on a continuous scale rather than one with violent changes. This is one reason why change has not come more quickly to Black Americans as compared to other American minorities, because of the sharp difference in appearance between them and their white counterparts. [br] According to the passage, which of the following is true within a society?
选项
A、Social change is less likely to occur in technology than in values.
B、What people learned in their early times tends to change quickly.
C、The basic and emotional aspects of society tend to slow down social change.
D、Strange elements are likely to quicken social change.
答案
C
解析
细节题。原文说社会变迁更容易经常发生在物质领域而不是非物质领域,并举例说in technology rather than in values:in what has been learned later in life rather than what waslearned early,因此A、B选项错误。还说in the less basic and less emotional aspects ofsociety than in their opposite,这说明基本的和感情上的东西会减缓社会变迁,所以C选项是正确的。
