问题     The following issue is what we are going to discuss. Most of the people who【C1】______most often and【C2】______gloriously in the history books are great conquerors and generals and soldiers,【C3】______the people who really helped civilization【C4】______are often never mentioned at all. We do not know who first【C5】______a broken leg, or launched a seaworthy boat, or【C6】______the length of the year, or【C7】______a field; but we know all about the killers and destroyers. People think a【C8】______deal of them, so much so that【C9】______all the highest pillars in the great cities of the world you will find the figure of a conqueror or a general or a soldier.【C10】______I think most people believe that the【C11】______countries are those that have beaten in baffle the greatest number of other countries and ruled【C12】______them as conquerors. It is just possible they are, but they are not the most civilized. Animals fight’, so【C13】______savages. Then to be good at fighting is to be good【C14】______in which an animal or a savage is good, but it is not to be civilized. Even being good at getting other people【C15】______for you and telling them how to do it most efficiently--this【C16】______is what conquerors and generals have done—is not【C17】______. People fight to【C18】______quarrels. Fighting means killing, and civilized people ought to be able to find some way of settling their disputes other than【C19】______seeing which side can kill off the greater【C20】______of the other side, and then saying that that side which has killed most has won. And not only has won, but, because it has won, has been in the right. For that is what going to war means; it means saying that might is right.
【C18】
选项 A、stop
B、set
C、settle
D、avoid
答案C
解析 本题考查根据语境判断选项。settle quarrels意为：“解决争端”；stop quarrels意为：“停止争端”，avoid，quarrels意为：“避免争端”；set这个词的意思为：“安置，安排，放下”。我们不能说“放下争端”。纵观全句，我们认为还是“解决争端”更为贴切。故应选C。
