问题     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【C1】______group. As each group became more【C2】______successful, and more powerful, they【C3】______newcomers from full participation in the society. Prejudice and discrimination are part of American history; however, this prejudicial treatment of different groups is nowhere more【C4】______than with black Americans.
    Blacks had distinct disadvantages. For the most part, they came to the "land of opportunity" as slaves and were not free to keep their【C5】______and cultural traditions. Unlike most European immigrants, blacks did not have the【C6】______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 their skin color. It was difficult for them to【C7】______to the American culture. Even after they became free people, they were still【C8】______in employment, housing, education.
    Until the 20th century, the majority of the black population lived in the southern part of the United States. Then there was a population【C9】______to the large cities in the North. Prejudice against blacks is often【C10】______with the South. Slavery was more common there and discrimination was usually easier to see.
A)financially B)authority C)adapt D)associated E)succeeding
F)unjust G)adopt H)excluded I)discriminated J)included
K)increasingly L)original M)protection N)heritage O)shift
【C8】
选项
答案I
解析 此处是被动语态结构，需填动词的过去分词。在动词过去式associated(将……联系起来，与某人交往)，excluded(排除)，included(包括)和discriminated(歧视)三个单词中excluded与from连用，本句前面讲黑人因为肤色问题很难融合到美国社会中，此句进一步解释“即使他们获得自由后，在教育、住房和就业中仍然受到歧视”。故选项I表示“歧视”符合文意。
