Let’s go through each question one by one and think about the right answer.
---
Question 1:
*A person who comes from one country to live in another country is ....*
→ That’s the definition of an
immigrant.
“Diverse” means many different kinds of people or things — not a person.
“Native American” refers to people who were already living in America before Europeans came.
✔ So, correct answer:
A — an immigrant
---
Question 2:
*What is NOT a reason people came to the United States to live?*
People came for religion (like Pilgrims), for freedom (from kings or unfair rules), to escape wars.
But they didn’t come just “to meet the President” — that’s not a real historical reason.
✔ So, correct answer:
D — to meet the President
---
Question 3:
*One reason immigrants chose to come to America was ...*
They wanted jobs so they could feed their families and have homes — that’s meeting their needs.
Freedom to eat what they wanted? Not really a big reason. Weather? Some places had bad weather too.
✔ So, correct answer:
A — to find jobs so they could have their needs met
---
Question 4:
*Coming to the United States was ...*
It was very hard! Long boat rides, sick people, no money, scary unknowns.
Not easy, not fun, not “in the middle.”
✔ So, correct answer:
C — hard
---
Question 5:
*What is NOT a question immigrants were asked?*
At Ellis Island or other ports, officials asked where you’d live, how you’d make money, if anyone was sick — these mattered for entry.
“What is your favorite color?” — that’s silly and never asked.
✔ So, correct answer:
B — What is your favorite color?
---
Question 6:
*True or False: Immigrants could be sent back to their home country once they arrived.*
Yes — if they were sick, had no money, or broke rules, they could be deported.
✔ So, correct answer:
A — True
---
Question 7:
*Some immigrants face discrimination.*
Discrimination means being treated unfairly because of where you’re from, your language, or your looks. Sadly, this happened (and still happens) to many immigrants.
So the statement is true.
✔ Correct answer:
B — True

1. A
