Over time, the Declaration of Independence bas significantly affected American history. Phrases from the document such as "all men are created equal" quickly took on a life of their own or were applied to groups that the authors never anticipated. Blacks quickly used this language to challenge slavery in the United States. The ideal of equality led Northern states to free slaves within their borders in the 1780s, 1790s, and early 180Os. Black and white abolitionists(废奴主义者) used the ideal that all men were created equal to attack slavery in the South before the Civil War. And civil rights supporters gathered behind Jefferson’s words in their fight against racism(种族主义) in the 1950s and 1960s. In 1848 the delegates to the Seneca Falls women’s rights convention proclaimed that "all men and women are created equal", and their 20th-century feminist counterparts(极相似的人物) did the same.
Other groups have focused on the document’s defence of the right to rebel against an unjust government. The Declaration of Independence had a profound impact on the French Revolution; its influence was strong in the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen, adopted by the National Assembly of France in 1789. In the 19th century the principles of the declaration were adopted by various Latin American movements fighting for independence from European colonial powers. The declaration influences more recent struggles for national identity: Vietnamese Communist leader HoChi Mink, for example, cited the American document as one of the basic principles behind his fight to establish an independent and unified Vietnam.
The document itself continues to be an important symbol for the American people. Today, each page of the Declaration f Independence is protected. Over one million Americans view the document each year in Washington D.C., where it is displayed along with the Constitution of the United States and the Bill of Rights.
选项
A、black slavery and racism should be removed
B、people of their own class are all created equal
C、all people in the world should be free from colonialism
D、people have the rights to overthrow an unjust government
答案
B
解析
语义题。all men are created equal意思是“人人生而平等”,“all men”是指各族各类的所有人民。因此,奴隶制度、种族主义、殖民主义等都应该被废除。故选B。
