问题     Cultural pluralism is the dynamic by which minority groups participate
fully in the dominant society, yet maintain its cultural differences. A plu- (1)______
ralistic society is one where different groups can interact while showing a
certain degree of tolerance for one another, where different cultures can co
exist without major conflicts, and where minority cultures are encouraged to
upholding their customs. (2)______
    A Jewish philosophy professor, Horace Kallen, coins the term "plural- (3)______
ism" in the early 1900s. He was proud in his country, and concerned for his (4)____
beliefs and the beliefs of immigrants. He did not want to be assimilated by
the majority. He felt that various distinguished cultures could offer a great (5)______
contribution to progress than a single culture could.
    Cultural pluralism is incompatible with biblical teaching to some extent. (6)______
The Bible does teach absolute truth and claims exclusivity. This isn’t to say
that anything outside the Bible is false. Take, for example, Confucius’ rule:
"Do not do to others what you would not have them to do to you." Obvi- (7)______
ously this is compatible with the Bible—it is a Biblical teaching! Another
example: the rule of gravity is not mentioned in the Bible but is true. These (8)______
two rules are mentioned in places apart from the Bible and yet can coexist
with Christian philosophy. The Bible does teach, however, that any doctrine
that contradicts to the Bible is false. The Bible tells us that murder is wrong, (9)______
so Christians must be intolerable of murder. (10)______
(6)
选项
答案incompatible — compatible
解析 孤立地看句子“Cultural pluralism is incompatible with biblical teaching to some extent．”看不出任何错误，但是，正如前面所述，八级改错解题时一定要有全篇观，作为这一段的主题句，它的关键词incompatible是否和下文相符呢?读下去就会发现这一段实际上是在说文化多元性实际上和圣经的思想是一致的。所以必须把incompatible改成它的反义词compatible。
