Passage Two
The earliest immigrants to North America found Indians already living there. The Indians numbered about 500,000 at that time. Their society was a primitive society, but they lived peacefully and welcomed the white strangers to the land. However, these early immigrants from Europe didn't want to share the land with the natives. They killed off many of the Indians, seized their land or pushed them off to lands farther away. Today the Indians, not more than halfa million, live in poverty and misery on the land on which they were once masters.
The earliest immigrants were the Spanish, who settled in the southern part of what is now the US The next large group were the English, after the English came the French, Dutch, Irish, Germans, and other nationality groups, mostly European.
Another early group to arrive were the Negroes. But they were brought in as slaves from Africa. They didn't win freedom till generations later.

第5题：
The first navigational lights in the New World were probably lighthouses hung at harbor en-trances.The first lighthouse was put up by the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1716 on Little Brew-ster Island at the entrance to Boston Harbor. Paid for and maintained by“light dues”levied（征收）on ships,the original beacon was blown up in 1776 .Until then there were only a dozen or so true lighthouses in the colonies.Little over a century later,there were 700 lighthouses.
The first eight lighthouses erected on the West Coast in the 1850s featured the same basic New England design:a Cape Cod dwelling with the tower rising from the center or standing close by .In New England and elsewhere,though,lighthouses reflected a variety of architectural styles.
Since most stations in the Northeast were set up on rocky eminences（高处）,enormous towers were not the rule .Some were made of stone and brick,others of wood or metal.Some stood on pilings or stilts;some were fastened to rock with iron rods.Farther south,from Maryland through the Florida Keys,the coast was low and sandy.It was often necessary to build tall towers theremassive structures like the majestic lighthouse in Cape Hatteras,North Carolina,which was lit in 1870.190 feet high,it is the tallest brick lighthouse in the country.
Not withstanding differences in construction appearance,most lighthouses in America shared several features:a light,living quarters,and sometimes a bell(or,later,a foghorn).They also had something else in common:a keeper and usually the keeper's family.The keeper's essential task was trimming the lantern wick（灯芯）in order to maintain a steady,bright flame. The earliest keepers came from every walk of life,they were seamen,farmers,mechanics,rough mill hands and appointments were often handed out by local customs commissioners as political plums.
After the administration of lighthouse was taken over in 1 852 by the United States Lighthouse
Board,and agency of the Treasury Department,the keeper corps gradually became highly professional.
A: It was the headquarters of the United States Lighthouse Board.
B: Many of the tallest lighthouses were built there.
C: The first lantern wicks were developed there.
D: The first lighthouse in North America was built there.
考的具体细节是作者提到马萨诸塞湾殖民地的原因。本文第一段第二句“The first lighthouse was put up by the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1716 on Little Brewster Island at the entrance to Boston Harbor.”提供了答案。所以，正确答案是D。
考的是位于东北地区的灯塔建得不是很高的原因。本题的线索在第二段第三句话 "Since most stations in the Northeast were built on rocky eminences,enormous towers were not the rule”文中说，由于大多数位于东北地区的灯塔建在岩石高地上，所以，一般灯塔都不需要建得很高很大。所以，正确答案是D。
考的具体细节是最高的砖砌灯塔位于什么地方。依据原文第二段第八句话，“… like the majestic lighthouse in Cape Hatteras…it is the tallest brick lighthouse in the coun-try.”我们可以得知，1870年建于北卡罗来纳州Hatteras角的灯塔是美国最高的砖砌灯塔，高度为190英尺。所以，正确答案是C。
考的是北卡罗来纳州的海岸情况。根据原文第二段第七、八句话“Farther south, from Maryland through the Florida Keys，…it is the tallest brick lighthouse in the country.” 可知，马里兰（Maryland）和佛罗里达海岸（the Florida Keys）相似，而马里兰（Maryland) 和佛罗里达（the Florida Keys）海岸是low and sandy。所以，北卡罗来纳州也应是low and sandy。选项A rocky eminences指的是美国东北海岸，选项B、D根本没有提及。所以，正确条案是C。
