Answer: d. This story about Angel Island reminds me of a book I read called Children of Ellis Island.
Explanation:
Text to text connections occur when a person relates something they are reading to something else they may have read or experienced that is similar to the piece they are reading.
<em>''Children of Ellis Island'' </em> is a book about the experiences of children who immigrated into the United States so it is similar to this story about the experiences of Chinese people who immigrated into the States as well therefore recalling it based on this story is a text to text connection.
The day was very bright when we decided to play a football match with a nearby football team in our neighborhood. We called the best players among ourselves leaving Kelvin behind. In fact, this guy isn’t good using his foot for things like this, I mean he’s very weak when it comes to playing football but he came along to support us.
We played about ten(10) minutes and they scored us so we decided to break for half time not knowing our best striker whom we believed won’t play again. There was no substitute to fix him and confidently, Kelvin said he can play. We all burst into laughter, we even thought that it was a dream but we had no choice but to replace him since there was no one.
Within three minutes of play, we had scored two goals of which kelvin scored it all. He could dribble from the center to the opponents half and place the ball at a very unexpected position to score a goal. On the thirty-fifth minutes, our opponents gave up for they were tired and the game results in 6:3 in favor us.
We felt ashamed underrating the guy and all he could tell us was that “we should sometimes hide the good things in us in order to know true friends who believe in our effortless caliber”. We were all mute as I told them that “THIS IS A DAY I WILL NEVER FORGET”
