) I: }0 R* R- Y7 w% l4 J% p) @0 K& O: i' {　　In some countries where racial prejudice is acute, violence has been taken for granted as a means of solving differences; and this is not even questioned. There are countries________(1) the white man imposes his rule by brute(粗暴的) force; there are countries where the black man protests by________(2) fire to cities and by looting and pillaging(抢劫). Important people on both sides, who would appear to be reasonable men, get up and calmly argue in________(3) of violence as if it were a legitimate(合法的) solution, ________(4) any other. What is really frightening, what really________(5) you with despair, is the realization that when it comes to the crunch(关键时刻) , we have made no actual________(6) at all. We may wear collars and ties instead of war-paint, but our instincts remain basically unchanged. The whole of the recorded________(7) of the human race, that tedious documentation of violence, has taught us absolutely nothing. We have still not learnt that________(8) never solves a problem but makes it more acute. The shear horror, the bloodshed and the suffering________(9) nothing. No solution ever comes to________(10) the morning after when we dismally(阴郁的) contemplate the smoking ruins and wonder what his us.
　　The truly reasonable men who________(11) where the solutions lie are finding it harder and harder to get a hearing. They are despised, mistrusted and even persecuted________(12) their own kind because they advocate such apparently outrageous things as law enforcement. If half the energy that goes into________(13) acts were put to good use, if our efforts were directed at ________(14) up the slums and ghettos(贫民窟), at improving living-standards and providing education and employment for all, we would not have gone a long way to________(15) at a solution.
