The United States of America is a country made up of different races. The original Americans were the Indians. The so-called white men who then reached the new continent were mostly from England. But many came from other countries like France and Germany.
    One problem in America is discrimination. When newcomers came to the U. S. A. , they found they were discriminated against, first the Irish and Italians, later the blacks. At last almost every group could escape this discrimination except the blacks. Believe it or not, the worst discrimination today is towards the Indians.
    One reason why the Indians are discriminated against is that they have tried to keep their identity. But they are not the only people who have done so. The Chinese have Chinatown in New York and the Japanese have their Little Tokyo in L. A. and the Dutch have their enclosed settlement in Pennsylvania. The Dutch live separately for religious reasons rather than keeping together for their identity.
    All races helped make the United States a great country. Many people still come from other countries to help America grow. A good example is the American project that let a man walk on the moon. It was a German scientist who was most responsible for doing that. It is certain that in the future the U. S. A. will still need the help of people from different races to remain a great country.

选项 A、The Blacks are discriminated against the most nowadays in America.
B、The Chinese have Chinatown in New York for religious reasons.
C、An Irish scientist helped Americans walk on the moon.
D、Each race plays a great role in keeping the United States as a great country.

答案 D

解析 综合判断题。如果第二题作出了正确的选择,就可以判断选项A的说法不正确。通过浏览其余选项可知,在听短文时,我们要特别关注下面两个事实:纽约唐人街的出现是否因为宗教的原闪,帮助美国人登月的科学家是否是爱尔兰人。原文告诉我们,目前在美国最受歧视的是印第安人,不是黑人,所以选项A不对;因为宗教原因而集中生活有别于其他种族的人是荷兰人,不是中国人,所以选项B不对;帮助美国人登上月球的科学家是德国人而不是爱尔兰人,所以选项C不对;文章最后一段表明,美国要继续保持强大需要住在那里的所有种族的共同努力,“It is certain that in the future the U.S.A,will still need the help of people from different races to remain a great country.”所以选项D为正确答案。
