Traditional research has confronted only

问题 Traditional research has confronted only Mexican and United States interpretations of Mexican–American culture. Now we must also examine the culture as we Mexican Americans have experienced it, passing from a sovereign people compatriots with newly arriving settlers to, finally a conquered people—a charter minority on our own land.　　When the Spanish first came to Mexico, they intermarried with and absorbed the culture of the indigenous Indians. This policy of colonization through acculturation was continued when Mexico acquired Texas in the early 1800’s and brought the indigenous Indians into Mexican life and government. In the 1820’s United State citizens migrated to Texas, attracted by land suitable for cotton.　　As their numbers became more substantial, their policy of acquiring land by subduing native populations began to dominate. The two ideologies clashed repeatedly, culmination in a military conflict that led to victory for the United States. Thus, suddenly derived of our parent culture, we had to evolve uniquely Mexican-Mexican modes of thought and action in order to survive.Which of the following statements most clearly contradicts the information in this passage?A.While Texas was under Mexican control, the population of Texas quadrupled, in spite of the fact the Mexico discouraged immigration from the United States.B.Most Indians living in Texas resisted Spanish acculturation and were either killed or enslaved.C.By the time Mexico acquired Texas, many Indians had already married people of Spanish Heritage.D.Many Mexicans living in Texas returned to Mexico after Texas was annexed by the United States.
选项 A.While Texas was under Mexican control, the population of Texas quadrupled, in spite of the fact the Mexico discouraged immigration from the United States.

C.By the time Mexico acquired Texas, many Indians had already married people of Spanish Heritage.
D.Many Mexicans living in Texas returned to Mexico after Texas was annexed by the United States.
答案 B
解析 考察与原文内容冲突的选项，将每个选项取反，看是否在文中有定位。由文章第二段第一句：When the Spanish first came to Mexico, they intermarried with and absorbed the culture of the indigenous Indians可知，西班牙人与墨西哥人通婚，而墨西哥人也并没有抵制或者被残杀。B为正确答案。
