M: I just came back from a trip to China and I was very impressed with the long history of that country.
W: Last year I visited Europe. It was interesting to see the ancient ruins there, too.
M: When I look at our country’s history, I begin to sense what a young country the States really is.
W: Yes. There are many countries whose histories were ancient when ours was just beginning.
M: The first English settlers arrived in America about the time the last Chinese dynasty began.
W: I believe one reason America has been able to be so successful in so many aspects is that it had no ancient traditions to bind it down.
M: Why would you say that? The settlers to America came from countries all over the world and must have brought their traditions with them.
W: Yes, they did and those traditions have enriched the American heritage; however, their purpose in coming to this new country was so they could make a change from the way they were living. Most immigrants to America were penniless. They came here to take advantage of a new way of life.
M: Sometimes I think we ignore the history of the native people encountered here in the Americas, both North and South.
W: Well, that’s true. I’ve noticed, however, that the remains of civilizations in North America don’t appear to be as ancient as those found in Mexico or Central and South America.
M: Those civilizations must have been as ancient as what I saw in China. They didn’t have an influence on the modern countries, though. Why is that?
W: It’s because those were dead civilizations. For some reasons, the traditions from those civilizations did not carry on to the surviving natives of the land.
M: Do you think that’s the reason, or is it that the immigrants who exerted authority over the natives were able to suppress their traditions?
W: I would think both are explanations.
选项
A、The native traditions were subjected by the immigrants’ authority.
B、The native traditions were too ancient to be useful to the modern countries.
C、The native traditions were dead ones.
D、Both A and C.
答案
D
解析
本题测试听者根据原文的相关细节进行归纳的能力。根据女士倒数第一句话:I would think both are explanations.由此可以得知,正确答案应选D。
