问题    Who are these people rushing by you in the street? More than 215 million people now call America "home" , but most of them can trace their families back to other parts of the world. If you look at the names on shop windows, you will see that Americans come from many different lands. The idea that these people, who once were strangers to the United States, have lost the customs and cultures of their original countries and have become "Americans" is really not true. In fact, what exists in America is more often a kind of "side-by-side" living, in which groups of people from other countries often have kept many of their customs and habits. They join the general American society only in certain areas of their lives—such as in schools, business, and sports—but they keep many of their own native customs and manners socially and at home. This "side-by-side" living has both advantages and disadvantages. Sometimes it may cause disagreements to develop between groups whose ways of life are very different from one another. However, there are also great advantages that come from the variety of cultures brought by settlers from other lands. There is great freedom of choice among ideas and dress, food, and social customs in America. Everyone can find some part of his or her familiar world in the United States, in churches, music, food, national groups, or newspapers.
Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

选项 A、Advantages and Disadvantages
B、Different Customs and Habits
C、Home for the People
D、Side-by-side Living Style in America

答案D

解析 通读全文可知,文章主要介绍了美国人的一种“side-by-side”的生活方式,即来自不同文化的移民既保留许多自己的风俗习惯,但在某些方面又遵循美国的风俗习惯;最后又指出这种文化多样性使美国生活变得更加丰富多彩。因此D项最适合作文章标题。故选D。
