Read this excerpt about Angel Island, an immigration station in the 1900s. Entry into the United States was most difficult for the Chinese. In part, Angel Island was built to enforce laws that restricted Chinese immigration. Such laws as the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 were written out of prejudice and fear that Chinese workers were taking jobs away from European Americans. Around 30 percent of Chinese immigrants at Angel Island were forced to return to China. The rest, those who could prove they had a husband or father who was a US citizen, were allowed to enter the mainland United States. Which student response to the excerpt is an example of a text-to-text connection?

A. This story about Angel Island reminds me of my grandmother, because she is Chinese.
B. This story about Angel Island reminds me of the time our family visited San Francisco.
C. This story about Angel Island reminds me of the feelings I had when our family moved to the United States.
D. This story about Angel Island reminds me of a book I read called Children of Ellis Island.
