Ai writes, "The refugee crisis is not about refugees, rather it is about us (par.13). What does he mean by this? Who is "us"? How is it "about us"?

The phrase "The refugee crisis is not about refugees, rather it is about us" has enormous sociological weight that needs to be analyzed. Thus, refugees are people who due to political, social or economic conflicts are displaced from their homes, and must settle abroad (that is, they do not emigrate entirely voluntarily, but by necessity or force majeure).

Many times, due to extremely serious issues, refugees fleeing their countries number in the millions (for example, the case of Syrians fleeing the civil war in their country). This generates the sad event of refugee crises, which occur because the receiving countries are not prepared for the massive arrival of these people.

In this context, the phrase implies that refugees are not the problem, but that it is the task of each country and its citizens to help these people cope with their situation in the best possible way.

the correct answer is a "it describes nora and mrs. linde's relationship". opcions b and d are not related to the content of the passage in any way. option c could be appropiate but it does not fully capture the effect of the dialogue, while option a is quite appropiate, since the dialogue not only exemplifies the relationship between the characters, but it also captures the effect in the excerpt. we get to know that mrs linde bosses around and already knows nora.
