From the beginning, this nation welcomed people______. [br]
In 1963, this man, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., expressed his vision in the famous speech, "I Have a Dream." But the dream-rooted in the American Dream wasn’t really new. From the beginning.this nation of immigrants welcomed people desiring freedom and a new start. However, the coming together of different races and ethnic groups created some tensions. The early Americans (except for the native "Indians" were almost all white Europeans. As more immigrants arrived, European groups fit into society easily. Others found it more difficult.
Black people were the only "immigrants" who didn’t choose to come to America. For hundreds of years, Africans were taken from their homes to be slaves in the New World. Even George Washington and Thomas Jefferson had slaves. The phrase "all men are created equal" didn’t apply to blacks in their day. The end of the Civil War finally brought freedom to the slaves in 1865, but blacks still had a lower position in society. Many Southern states practiced segregation to "keep blacks in their place." Blacks and whites went to different schools, ate at different restaurants, even drank from different water fountains.
选项
A、didn’t get freedom
B、had the same position as the whites
C、were segregated in some states
D、couldn’t work with the whites in the same company
答案
C
解析
注意题干是说Civil War之后,在听的时候注意这个字眼后的内容。Civil War出现在文章比较后部分:南北战争后,黑人仍然只有较低社会地位, “Many Southern states practiced segregation to keep blacks in theirplace.”所以选C。文中提及Civil War brought freedom to the slaves,所以A是错误的。南北战争后,黑人虽然得到自由,但是地位仍比白人低下,所以B也不对。D:没有说到黑人、白人能否在同一个公司工作,也不选。
