Read the 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 anciety. Among the immigrants
Ellis Island was known as "Heartbreak Island."
When their ship docked at the Hudson River pier, the
immigrants had numbered identity tags pinned to their
clothing. Then they were herded onto special ferryboats
that carried them to Ellis Island. Orcials hurried them
along, shouting "Quick Run. Hurry!" in half a dozen
languages

Which is an example of paraphrasing the excerpt?
The immigrants' next stop after landing in the States
was Ellis Island. This was the place where they
would be given health exams and other tests to see

their homeland.
'Filing into an enormous inspection hall, the
immigrants formed long lines separated by iron
railings..."
One author says, "Before they could be admitted to
the United States, immigrants had to pass through

would be questioned and examined."

them along, shouting Quick Run! Hurry in half a

What is sue’s reaction to her phone call

Read the excerpt from the war of the worlds, in which the crowd begins to disperse just before the first martian exits the cylinder. when i returned to the common the sun was setting. scattered groups were hurrying from the direction of woking, and one or two persons were returning. the crowd about the pit had increased, and stood out black against the lemon yellow of the sky—a couple of hundred people, perhaps. there were raised voices, and some sort of struggle appeared to be going on about the pit. strange imaginings passed through my mind. as i drew nearer i heard stent's voice: "keep back! keep back! "a boy came running towards me."it's a-movin'," he said to me as he passed; 'a-screwin' and a-screwin' out. i don't like it. i'm a-goin' 'ome, i am."what options accurately depict the impact of the boy's words on pacing within the excerpt? (select all that apply.)the war of the worldsthe setting is in england, so the boy's words provide the reader with the dialect of the area. even though that slows down the plot, the boy's words contain important information. the plot's forward movement is slow at the beginning of the excerpt because there is little action. the boy's words increase the tension and counteract that lag. the narrator is not close enough to see clearly into the pit, so the boy's words provide the narrator with the information he needs, which moves the plot forward. the boy's words serve to speed up the pacing of the plot because, as he is talking to the narrator, he is running past him to get away. the narrator is not close enough to see clearly into the pit, so the boy's words provide the narrator with the information he needs, which moves the plot forward. wrong? the boy's words serve to speed up the pacing of the plot because, as he is talking to the narrator, he is running past him to get away.
