解析这里考查定语从句。句意：在有些国家，白人用残忍的手段进行统治。名词countries 后跟了一个定语从句，countries还原到从句中做状语，所以用where来引导；同时根据下句“there are countries where the black man protests by____fire to cities and by looting and pillaging(抢夺)”，countries后跟了一个where引导的定语从句，而且这两句为并列句，由此也进一步确定答案为where。 (2) 解析:这里考查固定短语，set fire to意为“放火，点燃”。句意：有些国家，黑人则在城市中以放火、抢劫和掠夺来抗议。 (3) 解析:这里考查固定短语。句意：而双方的重要人物，虽然在其他方面显得很理智，也按捺不住起身辩护___暴力活动仿佛它是合法的解决措施，四个选项，in favor of意为“支持，赞同”，in memory of意为“纪念”，in spite of意为“尽管”，in need of意为“需要”。从上下文的语境来看，in favor of比较贴合语境。 (4) 解析:这里考查介词。句意：而双方的重要人物……也按捺不住起身辩护支持暴力活动，仿佛它是合法的解决措施，像其他解决措施一样。从上下文来看，like“像”比较贴合语境。 (5) 解析:这里考查固定搭配，fill A with B意为“用B塞满A，A充满了B”。句意：真正使人感到可怕的，真正使你充满绝望的，是认识到往往在关键时刻我们根本没有取得任何进步。 (6) 解析:这里考查名词。句意：真正让我们害怕的，让我们失望的是我们意识到在关键时刻，我们使用暴力实际上没有任何的____。四个选项，progress意为“进展，进步”，decision 意为“决定”，point意为“点，意义”，sense意为“感觉，意义”。分别代入，progress 比较符合语境。 (7) 解析:这里考查名词。句意：人类整个有记录的____表明那些无休止的暴力没有教给我们任何东西。四个选项system意为“体制，系统”， history意为“历史”，range意为“范围”，business意为“生意，事务，公司”。四个选项分别代入，history比较符合语境。 (8) 解析:这里考查名词。句意：人类整个有记录的历史表明那些无休止的暴力没有教给我们任何东西。我们还不明白____不能解决任何问题，只会让问题更尖锐。由此可知，空白处应填入的是violence，所以答案为B。 (9) 解析:这里考查动词。句意：恐惧、流血和灾难没有____。四个选项中，deal意为“处理”，have意为“有，让”，mean“意味”，want意为“想要”，根据语境可知mean比较符合语境。 (10) 解析:这里考查动词。句意：我们阴郁地沉思于战争的硝烟以及追问到底什么打击了我们，没有什么解决措施能____早晨。这里用的是比喻的语言，light the morning本意“点亮清晨`实际是指“给冲突带来光明”，所以正确答案为A。 (11) 解析:这里考查动词。句意：那些真正____解决措施在哪里的人发现很难让人听他们的意见。四个选项中，suggest意为“建议”，demand意为“要求”，consider意为“考虑”，know意为“知道”，根据语境，四个选项中know最符合语境。 (12) 解析:这里是考查被动语态，所以选择by。句意：他们受自己人的蔑视，得不到他们的信任，甚至受自己人的迫害。 (13) 解析:这里考查形容词。句意：如果把用于____行动的一半的力气用于好的方面。根据语境，显然是把那些投入暴力行动的力气用在好的方面，所以答案为C。 (14) 解析:这里考查固定短语。句意：如果我们努力去____贫民窟，努力改善生活条件，努力给所有人提供良好的教育和就业。四个选项，look up意为“仰望，查阅”，get up意为“起床”，take up意为“从事，占据”， clear up意为“清理，整理”，根据语境，clear up 比较贴合语境。 (15) 解析:这里考查动词。句意：我们就不必走那么长的路____解决方法。四个选项中，只有arrive和laugh可以搭配at，arrive at意为“达到，到达”，laugh at意为“嘲笑”，显然正确答案为D。
