They may have white, brown or black skin and blonde, brown, black or red hair, with blue, black, brown or green eyes.Many of the people you will see will be British people but they all look different because the people of Britain are a mixed race.Britain is and has always been a mixed race society. Early in the British history they were invaded by Romans, Saxons, Vikings and Normans armies and later Africans were brought to Britain by force in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries as slaves or servants. Over the years, thousands of people have been forced by persecution（迫害）or hunger to leave France, Ireland, Russia, and other countries, and have settled in Britain.About 8% of the population of Britain today are people from other cultures and races. That is 4.6 million people. According to a BBC report in September 2005, immigration（移民）made up more than half of Britain’s population growth from 1991 to 2001. The Guardian newspaper reported in 2007 that the number of immigrants to the UK was 145, 000 a year.People moving to Britain have brought their own cultures with them and try to keep them alive. An excellent example of this is the Notting Hill Carnival which celebrates the Caribbean culture and is now a very big part of British life today.1. From Tony Blair’s words, we learn that he was__________ for the diversity in Britain.A. sorryB. thankfulC. pityD. anxious2. Why can you find people of different races inBritain?A. Because people like to live in big cities in Britain.B. Because people from different countries havesettled in Britain.C. Because Britain has attracted many tourists fromall over the world.D. Because people from different countries havebeen invited to live there.3. What does the fourth paragraph mainly talk about?A. How Britain became a mixed race society.B. Where people get the strength to come toBritain.C. Where to find people with different hair, skinand eye colors.D. How people from different cultures livepeacefully in Britain.4. Which of the following statements is TRUEaccording to the passage?A. The rate of immigration to Britain increased bymore than 50% from 1991 to 2001.B. In the 17th century, about 8% of the Britishimmigrants were Africans.C. There are 4.6 million immigrants in Britain today.D. 145, 000 people moved out of the UK in 2007.5. It can be inferred that __________.A. England is the best place to live inB. people from Africa came to Britain for politicalreasonsC.
