问题 Which of the following best states the main idea of the passage? [br] The passage supports which of the following statements about the Mexican American community?
选项 A、In the 1960’s the Mexican American community began to incorporate the customs of another ethnic group in the United States into the observation of its own ethnic holidays.
B、In the 1960’s Mexican American community groups promoted ethnic solidarity primarily in order to effect economic change
C、In the 1960’s leader of the Mexican American community concentrated their efforts on promoting a renaissance of ethnic history and culture
D、In the 1960’s members of the Mexican American community were becoming increasingly concerned about the issue of voting rights.
E、In the 1960’s the Mexican American community had greater success in mobilizing constituents than did other ethnic groups in the United States.
答案 D
解析 Since the question asks which statement is supported by the passage, you must read the information about the Mexican American community in order to answer. The best answer is D because voting rights is characterized as an emerging issue –an issue of increasing concern. Choice A can be eliminated because Cinco de Mayo and other ethnic holidays are not characterized as having been combined. Choice B can be eliminated because no mention is made of economic change as a motivation for ethnic solidarity. Choice C is incorrect because the passage suggests that ethnic history and culture were not ends in themselves but were used to promote political ends. Choice E is incorrect also because the Mexican American community is not characterized as more successful than other ethnic groups.
