网考网解析：
细节题。可分别对各选项进行定位。选项A定位于第三段最后一句前半部分African Americans...will be come the second-largest minority behind Hispanics可知Hispanics是美国最大的少数民族而不是最大的民族。选项B定位于最后一句后半部分a half million of whom are now thought to be emigrating to the United States legally and otherwise，故为误。选项C与A定位在一个地方，可判断该选项正确，选项D定位于第三段倒数第二句“Twenty years from now， the United States’white，non-Hispanic majority will peak at 195 million，and then may decline in numbers．”故D为误。答案为C。 查看试题解析出处>>
