Passage Two
Ironically in the United States, a country of immigrants, prejudice and discrimination continue to
be serious problems. There was often tension between each established group of immigrants and each
succeeding group. As each group became more financially successful, and more powerful, they
excluded newcomers from full participation in the society. Prejudice and discrimination are pert of our
history; however, this prejudice treatment of different groups is nowhere more unjust with black
Americans.
Blacks had distinct disadvantages. For the most part, they came to the “ land of opportunity” as

slaves and they were not free to keep their heritage and cultural traditions. Unlike most European
immigrants, blacks did not have the protection of a support group; sometimes slave owners separated
members of the same family. They could not mix easily with the established society either because of

people, they still experienced discrimination in employment, housing, education, and even in public

Passage Three
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.
When families gather for Christmas dinner, some will stick to formal traditions dating back to
Grandma's generation. Their tables will be set with the good dishes and silver, and the dress code will be
Sunday-best.
But in many other homes, this china-and-silver elegance has given way to a stoneware (粗陶)
-and-stainless informality, with dresses assuming an equally casual-Friday look. For hosts and guests, the
《大学英语（I）》试卷 本卷共12页 第5页

change means greater simplicity and comfort. For makers of fine china in Britain, it spells economic hard
times.
Last week Royal Doulton, the largest employer in Stoke-on-Trent, announced that it is eliminating
1,000jobs --- one-fifth of its total workforce. That brings to more than 4,000 the number of positions lost in
18 months in the pottery (陶瓷)region. Wedgwood and other pottery factories made cuts earlier.

have their roots in earthshaking social shifts. A spokesman for Royal Doulton admitted that the company

television;
Even dinner parties, if they happen at all, have gone casual. In a time of long work hours and
demanding family schedules, busy hosts insist, rightly, that it's better to share a takeout pizza on paper
plates in the family room than to wait for the perfect moment or a
moment never comes. Iron a fine-patterned tablecloth? Forget it. Polish the silver? Who has time?
Yet the loss of formality has its down side. The fine points of etiquette (礼节)that children might once
have learned at the table by observation or instruction from parents and grandparents (
mouth closed. the table.
offer etiquette seminars for employees who may be competent professionally but clueless socially.
