47-50為題組 In the early part of the twentieth century, racism was widespread in the United States. Many African Americans were not given equal opportunities in education or employment. Marian Anderson (1897-1993) was an African American woman who gained fame as a concert singer in this climate of racism. She was born in Philadelphia and sang in church choirs during her childhood. When she applied for admission to a local music school in 1917, she was turned down because she was black. Unable to attend music school, she began her career as a singer for church gatherings. In 1929, she went to Europe to study voice and spent several years performing there. Her voice was widely praised throughout Europe. Then she returned to the U.S. in 1935 and became a top concert singer after performing at Town Hall in New York City. Racism again affected Anderson in 1939. When it was arranged for her to sing at Constitution Hall in Washington, D.C., the Daughters of the American Revolution opposed it because of her color. She sang instead at the Lincoln Memorial for over 75,000 people. In 1955, Anderson became the first black soloist to sing with the Metropolitan Opera of New York City. The famous conductor Toscanini praised her voice as “heard only once in a hundred years.” She was a U.S. delegate to the United Nations in 1958 and won the UN peace prize in 1977. Anderson eventually triumphed over racism.
【題組】50. This passage shows that Anderson finally defeated racism in the U.S. by .

在二十世紀早期，種族主義在美國很普遍。許多非洲裔美國人在教育或就業方面沒有獲得平等的機會。瑪麗安安德森（1897-1993）是一位非洲裔美國女性，在這種種族主義氣氛中成為一名音樂會歌手。她出生在費城，童年時在教堂唱詩班演唱。當她於1917年申請入讀當地一所音樂學校時，由於她是黑人，她被拒絕了。由於無法上音樂學校，她開始了自己作為教堂聚會歌手的職業生涯。 1929年，她去歐洲學習聲音，並在那里工作了幾年。她的聲音在整個歐洲受到廣泛讚譽。然後她於1935年回到美國，並在紐約市政廳演出後成為頂級演唱會歌手。種族主義在1939年再次影響了安德森。當安排她在華盛頓特區的憲法大廳唱歌時，美國革命的女兒因為她的膚色而反對它。她在超過75,000人的林肯紀念堂演唱。 1955年，安德森成為第一位與紐約大都會歌劇院合唱的黑人獨奏家。著名指揮家托斯卡尼尼稱讚她的聲音“只聽了一百年一次。”她於1958年擔任美國駐聯合國代表，並於1977年獲得聯合國和平獎。安德森最終戰勝了種族主義。
