Ironically, in the United States, a country of immigrants, prejudice and discrimination(歧视) continue to be serious problems. There was often tension between each established group of immigrants and each succeeding group. As each group became more financially successful, and more powerful, they excluded newcomers from full participation in the society. Prejudice and discrimination are part of American history; however, this prejudicial treatment of different groups is nowhere more unfair than with black Americans.
Blacks had distinct disadvantages. For tile most part, they came to the "land of opportunity" as slaves and they were not free to keep their heritage and cultural traditions. Unlike most European immigrants, blacks did not have the protection of a support group; sometimes the slave owners separated members of the same family. They could not mix easily with the established society either because of their skin color. It was much difficult for them to adapt to the American culture. Even after they became free people, they still experienced discrimination in employment, housing and education and even in public facilities.
Until the twentieth century, the majority of the black population lived in the southern part of the United States. Then there was a population shift to the large cities in the North. Prejudice against blacks is usually associated with the South. Slavery was more common there and discrimination was often easier to see.
In the 1950s and 1960s, blacks fought to gain fair treatment, and they now have legal protection in housing, education, and employment. Because their neighborhoods are segregated(隔离), many blacks feel that educational opportunities are not adequate .for their children. Busing children from one neighborhood to another is one solution to inequality in education. Naturally, all parents want the best possible education for their children. The situation of blacks is better today than it was in the 1950s, but racial tension continues. Time will be the genuine solution to the problem of race. [br] By "busing children from one neighborhood to another is one solution to inequality in education", the author means______.
选项
A、black children are slow in learning in their own neighborhood
B、black children can’t enjoy adequate education
C、black children are severely discriminated in their own neighborhood
D、black children are required to receive an education of a different culture
答案
B
解析
语义理解题。题干的意思是“用校车将一个社区的孩子送往另一个社区去上学是解决教育不平等问题的一种方法”,这句话的上文讲到“Because their neighborhoods are segregated... for their children.” (黑人社区是隔离开的,所以许多黑人感到对孩子们来说教育机会是不够的。)由此可见,作者提出教育不平等问题的解决方法,也就表明黑人孩子享受不到好的教育。
