The United States covers a large part of the North American continent. Its neighbors are Canada to the north and Mexico to the south. Although the United States is a big country, it is not the largest in the world. In 1964, its population was over 185,000,000.
When this land first became a nation, after winning its independence(独立)from England, it had thirteen states. Each of the states was represented(代表)on the American flag by a star. All these states were in the eastern part of the continent. As the nation grew towards the west, new states were added and new stars appeared on the flag. For a long time, there were 48 stars. In 1959, however, two more stars were added to the flag, representing the new states of Alaska and Hawaii.
Indians were the first people of the land which is in now the United States. There are still many thousands of Indians now living in all parts of the country. Sometimes it is said that the Indians are“the only real Americans”. Most Americans, come from all over the world. Those who came first in greatest numbers to make their homes on the eastern coast of North America were mostly from England. It is for that reason that the language of the United States is English and that its culture and customs are more like those of England than those of any other country in the world.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
The First Americans
There was a time long ago when a land bridge connected Asia and North America．The first settlers in North America crossed this land bridge from what is now Siberia to Alaska．The people who made this initial crossing were probably following the animals they used for food．
Finally, the oceans rose and the land bridge between the continents disappeared．The settlers, who I shall call the "First Americans" , could not return to their homeland． 1
For the next few thousand years, the First Americans moved south and east throughout North and South America．They made the journey all the way from Alaska to the southern tip of South America, a distance of more than 10,000 miles． 2
In the far north, above the Arctic Circle, the First Americans became hunters of the ocean． 3 __ In the summer, they gathered berries and other plants．In the winter, they stayed in lodges much of the time preparing for the next summer．It was a hard life, but they learned to survive in these terrible conditions．
Farther south, in what is now Arizona, Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico, the First Americans became cliff dwellers．They began by living in caves that already existed in the cliffs． 4 The dwellings they built in many ways resembled today's apartment buildings．
5 They built a system of dams and canals so they could store and use water almost any time of the year．They were so successful that they could raise fruits and vegetables that were not found naturally in the desert．
| A．They also discovered foods like corn and potatoes． |
| B．Along the way, they established many different civilizations． |
| C．They discovered how to add to the caves by building structures of wood and stone． |
| D．People living near each other tended to share similar environments and customs． |
