參考答案

【正確答案:C】

詞匯題。homogenizing 出現(xiàn)在文章第一句話中(In spite of “endless talk of difference, " American society is an amazing machine for homogenizing people),in spite of 意為“盡管,不管”,表示 讓步,所以介詞短語(yǔ)In spite of endless talk of difference和逗號(hào)后面的句子是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。因 此,homogenizing和deference的意思相反, 表示“使統(tǒng)-,使一致”的意思。因此最接近的含 義是C選項(xiàng)。
