2015 年1 月24 日SAT 阅读真题预测： Historians sometimes forget that history is conunu-ally being made and experienced before it is studied, interpreted, and read. These latter activities have their own history, of course, which may impinge in unex- (5)pected ways on public events. It is difficult to predict when “new pasts” will overturn established historical interpretations and change the course of history.

Vann Woodward delivered a lecture series at the University of Virginia (10)which challenged the prevailling dogma concerning the history, continuity, and uniformity of racial segregation in the South.

This revisionist view of Jim Crow legislation grew in Part from the research that Woodward had done for the NAACP legal campaign during its preparation for (20) Brown v. Board of Education. The Supreme Court had issued its ruling in this epochal desegregation case a few months before Woodward’s lectures.
