　　Intolerance is the art of ignoring any views that differ from your own. It __26__ itself in hatred,stereotypes, prejudice, and __27__. Once it intensifies people, intolerance is nearlyimpossible to overcome. But why would anyone want to be labeled as intolerance? Whywould people want to be __28__ about the world around them? Why would one want to bepart of the problem in America, instead of the solution?

　　There are many of the explanations for intolerant attitude, some __29__. childhood. It is likelythat intolerant forks grew up __30__ intolerant parents and the cycle of prejudice hassimply continued for __31__. Perhaps intolerant people are so set in their ways that they findit easier to ignore anything that might not __32__ to their limited view of life. Or maybeintolerant students have simply never been __33__ to anyone different from themselves. Butnone of these reasons is an excuse for allowing the intolerance to continue.

　　Intolerance should not be confused with disagreement. It is, of course, possible to disagreewith an opinion without being intolerant of it. If you understand a belief but still dont believein that specific belief, thats fine. You are __34__ your opinion. As a matter of fact, __35__dissenters (持异议者) are important for any belief. If we all believed the same things, we wouldnever grow, and we would never learn about the world around us. Intolerance does not stemfrom disagreement. It stems from fear. And fear stems from ignorance.
