Ome immigrants were so flustered that they could not answer. They were allowed to sit and rest and try again.
About one immigrant out of every five or six was detained for additional examinations or questioning.
The writer Angelo Pellegrini has recalled his own familyâs detention at Ellis Island:
We lived there for three days â Mother and we five children, the youngest of whom was three years old. Because of the rigorous physical examination that we had to submit to, particularly of the eyes, there was this terrible anxiety that one of us might be rejected. And if one of us was, what would the rest of the family do? My sister was indeed momentarily rejected; she had been so ill and had cried so much that her eyes were absolutely bloodshot, and Mother was told, âWell, we canât let her in.â But fortunately, Mother was an indomitable spirit and finally made them understand that if her child had a few hoursâ rest and a little bit to eat she would be all right. In the end we did get through.
According the passage, some immigrants were allowed to sit and rest before taking the exams again. How does the quotation from Angelo Pellegrini develop this topic?
A It provides a firsthand account from an immigrant who felt âthis terrible anxiety that one of us might be rejected.â
B It provides a firsthand account from an immigrant whose âeyes were absolutely bloodshot.â
C It provides a firsthand account from an immigrant whose âsister was indeed momentarily rejected; she had been so ill.â
D It provides a firsthand account from an immigrant whose sister was given âa few hoursâ rest and a little bit to eat.â

Ineed it now in this discussion you will use what you learned about the poems "will there really be a 'morning'? ", "i dwell in possibility", and "ozymandias" to compare how both dickinson and shelley used form - lines, capitalization, and punctuation - to bring meaning to the poems. let's check out one of your classmate's posts: in both "will there really be a 'morning'? " and "i dwell in possibility," emily dickinson capitalizes the words in the poem that tell the reader what to focus on in the poem. shelley also capitalizes words that are not names. these must be important to the meaning of the poem. create one post that compares how both dickinson and shelley use form - lines, capitalization, and punctuation - to bring meaning to the poems "will there really be a 'morning'? ", "i dwell in possibility", and "ozymandias".

In each of the following sentences, identify the word in parentheses that will connect the ideas most effectively. two or three times they looked in my direction. (but, and, for) i lay so still that they couldnât see me. when youâre first learning to type, the task seems hopeless. (for example, in fact, but) youâre often tempted to give up. i soon rose to a position of importance in the firm, for i was energetic, popular, and conscientious. (besides, therefore, for example), my father-in-law owned the place. when i was twelve years old, my uncle offered to give me cello lessons. i wasnât interested in music at that time, (besides, though, therefore).
