Read this excerpt from Immigrant Kids, by Russell
Freedman
But the journey was not yet over. Before they could be
admitted to the United States, immigrants had to pass
through Ellis Island, which became the nation's chief
immigrant processing center in 1892. There they would
be questioned and examined. Those who could not pass
all the exams would be detained; some would be sent
back to Europe. And so their arrival in America was filled
with great anxiety. Among the immigrants, Ellis Island
was known as "Heartbreak Island."
O the United States.
O the time period.
O taking exams.
O Ellis Island

Answer:

i think it's D...Ellis Island?

Explanation:

this excerpt was mainly talking about the immigrants and that they had to pass  through Ellis Island. if they could not pass the questioning and exams, they would be sent back to Europe.. And so their arrival in America was filled  with great anxiety. Among the immigrants, Ellis Island  was known as "Heartbreak Island."

yeah, this proves my point that they thought of "Ellis Island" as "Heartbreak Island" because of all the trauma and heartbreak that happens when you don't pass.

Read the excerpt from a speech by Cesar Chavez, "Lessons of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr."


During my first fast in 1968, Dr. King reminded me that our struggle was his struggle too. He sent me a telegram which said, "Our separate struggles are really one. A struggle for freedom, for dignity, and for humanity."


I was profoundly moved that someone facing such a tremendous struggle himself would take the time to worry about a struggle taking place on the other side of the continent.


Just as Dr. King was a disciple of Gandhi and Christ, we must now be Dr. King's disciples.


Dr. King challenged us to work for a greater humanity. I only hope that we are worthy of his challenge.

Read the excerpt from “The Oval Portrait,” by Edgar Allan Poe.

But it could have been neither the execution of the work, nor the immortal beauty of the countenance, which had so suddenly and so vehemently moved me. Least of all, could it have been that my fancy, shaken from its half slumber, had mistaken the head for that of a living person. I saw at once that the peculiarities of the design, of the vignetting, and of the frame, must have instantly dispelled such idea—must have prevented even its momentary entertainment. What is the effect of parallelism in this excerpt?
A It emphasizes the portrait’s artistry.
B It emphasizes the narrator’s mistakes.
C It emphasizes the portrait’s history.
D It emphasizes the narrator’s denial.

How is the experience of listening to the poem "How Do I Love Thee" being read aloud different from the experience of reading it silently? Hearing the poem read aloud lets listeners better understand how hard the poet worked to make each word count. The flaws and inconsistencies in the poem's rhyme scheme become apparent when it is read aloud. Listening to the sounds of the poem lets the audience unlock its hidden meaning. The sounds and rhythms of the poem are easier to understand when it is read aloud.
