Several recent studies have found that being randomly assigned to a roommate of another race can lead to increased tolerance but also to a greater likelihood of conflict.
Recent reports found that lodging with a student of a different race may decrease prejudice and compel students to engage in more ethnically diverse friendships.
An Ohio State University study also found that black students living with a white roommate saw higher academic success throughout their college careers. Researchers believe this may be caused by social pressure.
In a New York Times article, Sam Boakye – the only black student on his freshman year floor -said that "if you're surrounded by whites, you have something to prove."
Researchers also observed problems resulting from pairing interracial students in residences.
According to two recent studies, randomly assigned roommates of different races are more likely to experience conflicts so strained that one roommate will move out.
An Indiana University study found that interracial roommates were three times as likely as two white roommates to no longer live together by the end of the semester.
Grace Kao, a professor at Penn said she was not surprised by the findings. "This may be the first time that some of these students have interacted, and lived, with someone of a different race," she said.
At Penn, students are not asked to indicate race when applying for housing.
"One of the great things about freshman housing is that, with some exceptions, the process throws you together randomly," said Undergraduate Assembly chairman Alec Webley. "This is the definition of integration."
"I've experienced roommate conflicts between interracial students that have both broken down stereotypes and reinforced stereotypes," said one Penn resident advisor (RA). The RA of two years added that while some conflicts "provided more multicultural acceptance and melding (融合)," there were also "jarring cultural confrontations."
The RA said that these conflicts have also occurred among roommates of the same race.
Kao said she cautions against forming any generalizations based on any one of the studies, noting that more background characteristics of the students need to be studied and explained.
1.What can we learn from some recent studies?
A. Conflicts between students of different races are unavoidable.
B. Students of different races are prejudiced against each other.
C. Interracial lodging does more harm than good.
D. Interracial lodging may have diverse outcomes.
2.What does Sam Boakye's remark mean?
A. White students tend to look down upon their black peers.
B. Black students can compete with their white peers academically.
C. Black students feel somewhat embarrassed among white peers during the freshman year.
D. Being surrounded by white peers motivates a black student to work harder to succeed.
3.What does Alec Webley consider to be the "definition of integration"?
A. The school randomly assigns roommates without regard to race.
B. Students of different races are required to share a room.
C. Interracial lodging is arranged by the school for freshmen.
D. Lodging is assigned to students of different races without exception.

第三部分閱讀理解（共15小題；每小題2分，滿分30分）
第一節閱讀下面兩篇語言材料，然后按要求做題。（共10小題；每小題2分，滿分20分）
A few years ago, I took a sightseeing trip to Washington D.C. I saw many of our nation’s treasures, and I also saw a lot of unfortunate people like beggars and homeless folks in the streets.
Standing outside the Ronald Reagan Center, I heard a voice say, “Can you help me?” When I turned around, I saw an elderly blind woman with her hand extended(伸出). In a natural reaction, I reached into my pocket, pulled out all of my loose change and placed it in her hand. I didn’t even look at her. I was annoyed at being bothered by a beggar.
But the blind woman smiled and said, “I don’t want your money. I just need help finding the post office.”
Immediately, I realized what I had done. I acted with prejudice(偏見)—I judged another person simply for what I thought she was.
The thing I had forgotten about myself is that I am an immigrant. I left Honduras and arrived in America at the age of 15. Through the years, I have been a dishwasher, cashier, mechanic and pizza delivery driver among many other jobs, and finally I became a network engineer.
In my own life, I have experienced many open acts of prejudice. I remember a time, at age 17— I was a busboy, and I heard a father tell his little boy that if he did not do well at school, he would end up like me.
But now, living in my American middle-class lifestyle, it is too easy to forget my past, to forget who I am and where I have been, and to lose sight of where I want to be going. That blind woman on the street of Washington D.C. cured me of my blindness. She reminded me to always keep my eyes and heart open.
1. When the author came to America at first ______.
A. he usually did some work with a little payment.
B. he used to beg for some money on the street.
C. he lived a comfortable life as a network engineer.
D. he was respected by others all the time.
2. According to the passage, what did the author regret?
A. That he gave all his change to the blind woman.
B. The way he treated the blind woman.
C. That he came to Washington D.C. for a visit.
D. That he didn’t tell the woman the way to the post office.
3. The father mentioned in the passage wanted ______.
A. to encourage his son to make a living by himself
B. his son to become a busboy in the future
C. his son to work harder at school
D. to remind his son to depend on himself at school
4. We can infer all of the following statements from the passage EXCEPT ______.
A. He disliked being bothered by beggars.
B. He was delighted to give away his money to beggars.
C. He once suffered a lot.
D. The blind woman didn’t beg for money at that time.
5. What does the author want to tell us through this story?
A. Don’t dream up ways to get what you want. B. Money is the root of all evils.
C. An easy life makes a person forgetful. D. Be good to others all the time.
