The United States of America is a country made up of different races. The original Americans were the Indians. The so-called white men who then reached the new continent were mostly from England. But many came from other countries like France and Germany.
One problem in America is discrimination. When newcomers came to the U. S. A. , they found they were discriminated against, first the Irish and Italians, later the blacks. At last almost every group could escape this discrimination except the blacks. Believe it or not, the worst discrimination today is towards the Indians.
One reason why the Indians are discriminated against is that they have tried to keep their identity. But they are not the only people who have done so. The Chinese have Chinatown in New York and the Japanese have their Little Tokyo in L. A. and the Dutch have their enclosed settlement in Pennsylvania. The Dutch live separately for religious reasons rather than keeping together for their identity.
All races helped make the United States a great country. Many people still come from other countries to help America grow. A good example is the American project that let a man walk on the moon. It was a German scientist who was most responsible for doing that. It is certain that in the future the U.S.A. will still need the help of people from different races to remain a great country.
26. Where did most of the first white people in the U.S.A. come from?
27.Which group of Americans is discriminated against the most?
28.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
选项
A、Germany.
B、Holland.
C、France.
D、England.
答案
D
解析
细节题。本文介绍美国种族歧视的现象。听短文之前,通过浏览选项得知本题问的是地点,听的时候要对地点特别敏感,一听到“The so-called white men who then reached the new continent were mostly from England”就可在D这个选项旁做好标记,但是要作出正确的选择,必须抓住句中的关键词mostly(主要地,大部分),因为随后你会听到“But many came from other countries like France and Germany”,可是,为何不能选择A或c呢?因为关键词mostly告诉我们,来到这块新大陆的白人尽管有法国人、德国人,但是绝大多数的是来自英格兰的白人,所以正确答案为D。
