Answer:

The statement that best summarizes the central idea of this paragraph is letter <u>B) America is a united country despite its cultural differences.</u>

Explanation:

In the article "A Quilt of a Country", author Anna Quindlen discusses how America is interestingly contradictory. She compares the country to a quilt, in the sense that they are both patched together from dissimilar parts. America is formed by all sorts of people, from all over the world. Quindlen mentions that people in America are constantly finding a reason to judge others, to complain about those who are different. Yet, the country remains united, especially in times of fear, of war. It's as if the thread that keeps the patches together were, in America's case, having a common enemy or a common ideal. In the excerpt we are studying here, Quindlen mentions different groups and how they are frequently "on the verge of fisticuffs". Still, they are "impossibly interwoven". There is of separating them. They are all part of the whole, which is America itself.
