问题     Social change is more likely to occur in societies where there is 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 speed up 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 (无名争辩的).
    Within a society, social change is more 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 in values; in less basic and less emotional aspects of society than in their opposites; in form rather than in substance (本质); and in elements that are acceptable to the culture rather than in a strange element.  
In a society ______ is less likely to have changes.
选项 A、where people are quite similar in many ways
B、which is full of disagreements
C、which has worldly interest
D、where there is mixture of different kinds of people
答案A
解析 推理判断题。文章一直在讲述什么样的社会最有可能发生社会变化。一般社会中差别越多，不同的观点越多，各种各样的兴趣也就越多，那么社会发生改变的可能性就会越大，因此最不可能发生变化的应该是人们具有极大相似性的社会。从文章第一句也可得出本题的答案。
