60.哪一群人被帶到美洲當奴隸賣掉?
Answer: Africans; people from Africa
答案:非洲人;來自非洲的人
Explanation: When Europeans began to live in the United States, they had a lot of work to do.
解釋:當歐洲人開始在美國生活時,他們有很多工作要做。
They needed to make farms so that people would have enough to eat, build towns and cities, and build roads so that people could go between the towns and cities.
他們需要開拓農場,以便人們有足夠的食物吃,建設城鎮和修路,以便人們往返于城鎮之間。
There was too much work to do and not enough people to do it.
那里有太多的工作要做卻沒有足夠的人力。
So Europeans began to use slaves (or people who are forced to work without pay and are owned by other people).
因此歐洲人開始使用奴隸(或被迫無償工作且歸他人所有的人)
Most of the slaves were black people from Africa who were taken to America and sold to wealthy (or rich) people.
大多數奴隸都是來自非洲的黑人,他們被帶到美洲并賣給富裕的(或富有的)人。
Africans were treated very poorly on the slave ships, which were large boats that brought slaves from Africa, and many of them died before getting to America.
非洲人在奴隸船上受到的待遇很差,也就是從非洲運來奴隸的大船,許多人在抵達美洲之前就死了。
Historians (or people who study history) estimate (or guess) that about 645,000 Africans were brought to the United States.
歷史學家(或研究歷史的人)估計(或猜測)約有64.5萬名非洲人被帶到美國。
By 1860, the number of Africans had grown to around 4 million slaves.
到了1860年,非洲奴隸的數量增加到了四百萬左右。
