A wise man once said that the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing. So, as a police officer, I have some urgent things to say to good people.
Something has gone terribly【C1】________with our once proud American way of life. It has happened in the area of values. A key【C2】________is disappearing, and I think I know what it is: accountability.
Accountability isn’t hard to【C3】________. It means that every person is responsible for his or her actions and【C4】________for their consequences. Of the many【C5】________that hold civilization together—honesty, kindness, and so on—accountability may be the most important.
My job as a police officer is to impose accountability on people who【C6】________, or have never learned, to impose it on themselves.【C7】________as every policeman knows, external controls on people’s behavior are far less effective than internal restraints such as guilt, shame and【C8】________.
【C9】________, there are still communities—smaller towns, usually—where schools maintain【C10】________and where parents hold up standards that proclaim: "In this family certain things are not【C11】________—they simply are not done! "
Yet more and more, especially in our larger cities and suburbs, these【C12】________restraints are loosening. The main cause of this breakdown is a radical shift in【C13】________. Thirty years ago, if a crime was【C14】________society was considered the victim.
Now, in a shocking【C15】________it’s the criminal who is considered victimized: by his underprivileged upbringing, by the school that didn’t teach him to read, by the church that【C16】________to reach him with moral guidance, by the parents who didn’t provide a【C17】________home.
I don’t believe it. Many others in equally disadvantaged circumstances choose not to【C18】________in criminal activities. If we free the criminal, even partly, from accountability, we become a society of endless excuses where no one accepts responsibility for anything.
We【C19】________America desperately need more people who believe that the person who commits a crime is the one【C20】________it.
【C18】
选项
A、indulge
B、enter
C、engage
D、result
答案
C
解析
句子表示很多其他的人也处在同样不利的环境下,但是并没有选择去做犯罪的事情。C项engage,与in搭配“从事于,参与”,与criminal activities(犯罪活动)搭配合理。indulge in“沉溺于”(A项)语义过重,而且既然是沉迷犯罪活动,那就不属于个人能做的选择。B项enter也可意为“参加”,但是直接接宾语,不与m连用。result in“导致”(D项)表结果,前后并非因果关系。
