| 第4题：The beginning of what was to become the United States was characterized by inconsistencies in the values and behavior of its population, inconsistencies that were reflected by population, inconsistencies that were reflected by its spokesmen, who took conflicting stances in many areas, but on the subject of race, the conflicts were particularly viviD、The idea that theCaucasian race andEuropean civilization were superior was well entrenched in the culture of the colonists at the very time that the "egalitarian" republic was foundeD、Voluminous historical evidence indicates that, in the mind of the average colonist, theAfrican was a heathen, he was black, and he was different in crucial philosophical ways.As time progressed, he was also increasingly captive, adding to the conception of deviance. TheAfrican, therefore, could be justifiaby (and even philanthropically) treated as property according to the reasoning of slavetraders and slaveholders. Although slaves were treated as objects, bountiful evidence suggests that they did not view themselves similarly. There are many published autobiographies of slaves.African-American scholars are beginning to know enough about WestAfrican culture to appreciate the existential climate in which the early captives were raised and which therefore could not be totally destroyed by the enslavement experience. This was a climate that defined individuality in collective terms. Individuals were members of a tribe, within which they had prescribed roles determined by the history of their family within the tribe. Individuals were inherently a part of the natural elements on which they depended, and they were actively related to those tribal members who once lived and to those not yet born. The colonial plantation system which was established and into whichAfricans were thrust did virtually eliminate tribal affiliations. Individuals were separated from kin. Interrelation- ships among kin kept together were often transient because of sales. A、new identification with those slaves working and living together in a given place could satisfy what was undoubtedly a natural tendency to be a member of a group. New family units became the most important attachments of individual slaves. Thus, as the system of slavery was gradually institutionalized, WestAfrican affiliation tendencies adapted to it. This exceedingly complex dual influence is still reflected in black community life, and the double consciousness of blackAmericans is the major characteristic ofAfrican-American mentality.DuBois articulated this divided consciousness as follows: The history of theAmerican Negro is the history of this strife--this longing to attain self-conscious manhood, to merge his double self into a better and truer self. In this merging, he wishes neither of the older selves to be best. Several black political movements have looked upon this duality as destructively conflictual and have variously urged its reconciliation. Thus, the integrationists and the black nationalists, to be crudely general, have both been concerned with resolving the conflict, but in opposite directions. Which of the following can be inferred about the viewpoint expressed in the second paragraph of the passage A、It is a reinterpretation of slave life based on new research done byAfrican-American scholars. B．It is based entirely on recently published descriptions of slave life written by slaves themselves. C．It is biased and overly sympathetic to the views of white, colonial slaveholders. D．It is highly speculative and supported by little actual historical evidenc |
