60.What group of people was taken to America and sold as slaves?
60.哪一群人被带到美洲当奴隶卖掉？
Answer: Africans; people from Africa
答案：非洲人；来自非洲的人
Explanation: When Europeans began to live in the United States, they had a lot of work to do.
解释：当欧洲人开始在美国生活时，他们有很多工作要做。
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.
他们需要开拓农场，以便人们有足够的食物吃，建设城镇和修路，以便人们往返于城镇之间。
There was too much work to do and not enough people to do it.
那里有太多的工作要做却没有足够的人力。
So Europeans began to use slaves (or people who are forced to work without pay and are owned by other people).
因此欧洲人开始使用奴隶（或被迫无偿工作且归他人所有的人）
Most of the slaves were black people from Africa who were taken to America and sold to wealthy (or rich) people.
大多数奴隶都是来自非洲的黑人，他们被带到美洲并卖给富裕的（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.
非洲人在奴隶船上受到的待遇很差，也就是从非洲运来奴隶的大船，许多人在抵达美洲之前就死了。
Historians (or people who study history) estimate (or guess) that about 645,000 Africans were brought to the United States.
历史学家（或研究历史的人）估计（或猜测）约有64.5万名非洲人被带到美国。
By 1860, the number of Africans had grown to around 4 million slaves.
到了1860年，非洲奴隶的数量增加到了四百万左右。
