Racial Prejudice

In some countries where racial prejudice is acute，violence has been taken for granted as a means of solving differences；and this is not even questioned．There are countries【51】______the white man imposes his rule by brute(粗暴的)force；there are countries where the black man protests by【52】______fire to cities and by looting and pillaging(抢劫)．Important people on both sides，who would appear to bereasonable men，get up and calmly argue in【53】______of violence as if it were a legitimate(合法的) solution，【54】______any other．What is really frightening，what really【55】______ you with despair，is the realization that when it comes to the crunch(关键时刻)，we have made no actual【56】______at all．We may wear collars and ties instead of war-paint，but our instincts remain basically unchanged．The whole of the recorded【57】______of the human race，that tedious documentation of violence，has taught us absolutely nothing．We have still not learnt that【58】______never solves a problem but makes it more acute．The sheer horror，the bloodshed and the suffering【59】______nothing．No solution ever comes to【60】______the morning after when we dismally(阴郁地) contemplate the smoking ruins and wonder what hit us．

The truly reasonable men who【61】______where the solutions lie are finding it harder and harder to get a hearing．They are despised，mistrusted and even persecuted【62】______their own kind because they advocate such apparently outrageous things as law enforcement．If half the energy that goes into【63】______acts were put to good use，if our efforts were directed at【64】______up the slums and ghettos(贫民窟)，at improving living-standards and providing education and employment for all，we would not have gone a long way to【65】______at a solution．
