The United States government’s support of slavery was based on an overpowering practicality. Before America even had a history it was busy creating a【B1】ethnic class for it to look down【B2】. The history of black people in the United States begins with the birth of【B3】. African Americans were【B4】not just as a lower class of people, but simply as property, creating an【B5】for equality that may never【B6】Slaves were subjected to the poorest of living【B7】, whippings not uncommon, and often having tight knit families, mothers and daughters, fathers and sons split when sold【B8】from each other. Early slave resistance was often to the effect of【B9】property, running away or just working【B10】but sometimes went as far as killing masters and burning【B11】buildings. In some instances masters were fast to【B12】themselves from this by making lower class whites overseers, hoping they would【B13】the brunt of the slave’s【B14】. The United States would eventually【B15】in the great pressure placed on it to【B16】slavery. With slavery ended black and white people were able to live together as【B17】. Some would say that this is still not the fact, since oppression(压迫)of【B18】people did not end until today and widespread discrimination against them was constant.【B19】slavery remained in the memories of African Americans, they still lived in fear from race related【B20】.

选项
A、richer
B、superior
C、lower
D、poorer
答案
C
解析
语义衔接题。根据后半句的look down的字面意思“俯视”可知,美国忙于建立的种族阶层应该是比较低的阶层,而且是和现有的阶层比,所以用比较级,应该选lower。richer“更富有的”;superior“上等的”与句意相矛盾。poorer“更贫穷的”,文中并没有指出现在的这个阶层贫穷。
