Passage Three
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following
passage.
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
areas 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
thecomplex 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.
following
factors tend to promote social change except ____.
A) different kinds of people B)
different points of view
C)
different interests D) different conditions
expression
“
greater tolerance
”
(Line 8,Para.1) refers to
“
____
”
.
A)
more respect for different beliefs and behaviors
B) quicker adaptation to changing
circumstances
C) greater willingness to
accept social change
D) greater
readiness to agree to different opinions and ideas
33. According
to the passage, which of the following is TRUE
within a society?
