Social change is more likely to occur in societies where there is a mixture of different kinds of people than in societies where people are similar in many ways. The simple reason 1

this is that there are more different ways of looking at things 2 in the first kind of society. There are more ideas, more 3 in interest, and more groups and organizations with different beliefs. 4 , there is usually a greater worldly interest and greater tolerance in 5 societies. All these factors tend to promote social change by 6 more areas of life to decision. In a society where people are quite 7 in many ways, there are fewer occasions for people to see the 8 or the opportunity for change because everything seems to be the 9 . And although conditions may not be satisfactory, they are 10 customary and undisputed.

Within a society, social change is also 11 to occur more frequently and more readily in the material 12 of the culture than in the non-material. For example, in technology rather than in 13 . in what has been learnt later in life rather than in what was learned 14 .

in the less basic and less emotional aspects of society than in their 15 . in the simple elements rather than in the 16 ones. in form rather than in 17 . and in elements that are acceptable to the culture rather 18 in strange elements.

Furthermore, social change is easier if it is 19 . For example, it comes more readily on human relations on a continuous 20 rather than one with sharp dichotomies (一分为二,对分). This is one reason why change has not come more quickly to Black American as compared to other American minorities, because of the sharp difference in appearance between them and their white counterparts.
