答案
Britain is a country that has absorbed immigrants for thousands of years. Waves of so-called Celtic people arrived over 2000 years ago, followed by the Roman armies that included soldiers from all over the known world; then Angles, Saxons, Danes, Vikings, all of whom left their mark; Norman French, then Huguenot refugees from France; and in more recent times people fleeing persecution in Europe, mainly Jews, then people displaced because of war; ex Italian and German prisoners of war who wanted to stay, then people from the Caribbean, invited to work in the 1950s; and in the last four decades, Africans from Kenya and elsewhere, Muslims and Hindus. A real mix of people are all attracted to the idea of living in a free, stable, prosperous country. All of this has brought tremendous benefits. The earliest settlers have left an amazing legacy and craftwork of the highest order, added to the language. They have also left place names to remind us of their presence. Skills, such as that of the Huguenot weavers, business skills, and finance have all enriched the country. Initial hostility to people from Africa has almost disappeared but still rears its ugly head in subtle and not so subtle ways. Most of the people from the Caribbean had a genuine respect for Britain, the Commonwealth, and especially the Queen. Many people in Britain have made a tremendous effort to embrace the idea of a multicultural society. Different festivals, such as Diwali, are celebrated in schools. Cities encourage such events as Chinese New Year celebrations. Important information is available in many different languages and every effort is made to encourage newcomers. However, it seems that whilst for the most part people of different faiths and traditions meet at school and work quite freely, many such as Hindu, and especially Muslim, really do not want to be fully integrated. They want to keep their traditional dress and to look and to be distinct. A recent survey showed that many Muslims would like Shar’iah Law, a different system of laws, feel that women are second class citizens, would not report a suspected terrorist and so on. This is a huge drawback, because it threatens the liberal, democratic way of life that we have, and poses a threat to the very reason for which they have come—freedom.
