From the beginning, this nation welcomed people______.
In 1963, this man, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., expressed his vision in the famous speech, "I Have a Dream." But the dream-rooted in the American Dream wasn’t really new. From the beginning.this nation of immigrants welcomed people desiring freedom and a new start. However, the coming together of different races and ethnic groups created some tensions. The early Americans (except for the native "Indians" were almost all white Europeans. As more immigrants arrived, European groups fit into society easily. Others found it more difficult.
Black people were the only "immigrants" who didn’t choose to come to America. For hundreds of years, Africans were taken from their homes to be slaves in the New World. Even George Washington and Thomas Jefferson had slaves. The phrase "all men are created equal" didn’t apply to blacks in their day. The end of the Civil War finally brought freedom to the slaves in 1865, but blacks still had a lower position in society. Many Southern states practiced segregation to "keep blacks in their place." Blacks and whites went to different schools, ate at different restaurants, even drank from different water fountains.
选项
A、from Europe
B、who were white European
C、looking for new lives and freedom
D、who were living different lives
答案
C
解析
文段前部分说到“From the beginning,this nation of immigrants welcomed people desiring freedom anda new start”所以选C。至于A、B基本上没有什么差别,如果选B,也可以选A,所以两者都不准确。D项whowere living different lives是文章后面的内容,$1begirming无关。
