The word "freedom" for many black Americans is
inextricably linked with the word "slavery." While it has 148 years【M1】______
since the Emancipation Proclamation, and 47 years since the
landmark Civil Rights Act, for many, the words of Martin Luther
King in his famous speech still ring real: "The Negro lives on a【M2】______
lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material
prosperity." Many black Americans still find themselves spiritually
and economically slaved on the figurative 21st-century plantation.【M3】______
Why is that still so? After all, for the last 47 years, our leaders
have passed on bill after bill ostensibly to free black Americans【M4】______
from the manacles of poverty and provide ever-stronger safety nets
for those disadvantaged. Because two very formidable forces have【M5】______
conspired over these last 47 years—almost the span of my
complete life—to shackle the economic freedoms and aspirations【M6】______
of the black community: liberal progressive policies, generally
supported by Democrats, and the socialist ideology espoused
by prominent blacks as Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson.【M7】______
This is always curious to me that black Americans typically【M8】______
vote Democrat, when it was a Republican president, Abraham
Lincoln, who issued the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863, and a
Republican from Ohio, Representative James Mitchell Ashley,
who came forth the bill to support an amendment to end slavery【M9】______
throughout the United States. Nearly 100 years late, when the【M10】______
initial Civil Rights Bill came before the full Senate in 1964, it was
a group of 18 Southern Democrats who argued most fervently
against its passage.
【M10】
选项
答案
late一later
解析
词汇错误。late作副词表示“晚,迟”,later表示“以后”,此处的意思是“大约100年以后”,故应该用later,符合上下文语义。
