章節(jié)摘錄

  An immigrant is a person who comes to a new country to live. People often think of the United States as a nation of immigrants. This is because, with the exception of Native Ameri- cans, people from other countries and their descendants make up the entire U.S. population. There have been three distinct waves of immigration to the United States since the colonists founded the nation.  The earliest setders were the colonists. Unlike immigrants, who come to settle in a country that is already established, colonists come to a region to found a colony under the rule of their home country. Before the founding of the United States, colonists welcomed set- tlers, from England as well as from Germany, who came to tend and settle the land.  Once the colonists had founded the nation, the first wave of large-scale immigration oc- curred. Between 1820 and 1880, nearly 8 million immigrants chose to come to the country. Most of these were from Germany, England, and Ireland. They were at ease with British customs. They spoke English or a related language. Many were artisansand laborers who found work in the growing cities. On the West Coast, immigrants from China came to strike it rich in the Gold Rush and to work on the transcontinental railroad. Among those who made up the first wave were a large number of immigrants from Africa. These people were brought to the United States against their will and were sold to plantation owners to do forced labor.  During the second wave of immigration——from 1880 to 1920——more than 24 million immigrants arrived. Most were from Russia, Poland, and Italy. Many were of Jewish de- scent. They brought with them a range of languages, religions, and ideas about education and government. Prior fears that immigrants would change early American values grew more intense. Immigrants were willing to work for low wages. This inspired additional fears. Citi- zens feared that immigrants would take their jobs. Laws were passed to limit the number and kinds of immigrants to enter each year.  The third wave of immigration in the United States spoons (持續(xù)) the period from 1970 to the present. More than a million immigrants arrive each year from such regions as Latin America, the Caribbean, and Asia.
