I'm timed can someone plz help Fast Read the excerpt from Immigrant Kids, by Russell Freedman. Those who failed to get past both

doctors had to undergo a more thorough medical exam. The others moved on to the registration clerk, who questioned them with the aid of an interpreter: What is your name? Your nationality? Your occupation? Can you read and write? Have you ever been in prison? How much money do you have with you? Where are you going? Which answer choice best paraphrases this excerpt? Interpreters were used to give medical examinations to immigrants. They would ask them questions about where they were from and where they were planning to go in America. If someone failed the medical exam, they would be sent to another doctor. After passing a medical exam, immigrants would be asked their name and questioned by a clerk in their native language. Topics included nationality, what kind of work they could do, and literacy. Each person was also asked if they had been to prison, how much money they had brought, and their destination in the United States. Immigrants passing the medical test were at once given a more thorough examination by a third doctor. If they failed this exam, they were sent back to their own country. If they passed, they were asked a series of questions before being allowed to enter the United States. While it was unfair, this was the system in place at the time. With the help of an interpreter, immigrants were asked the following questions before being let into the United States: What is your name? Your nationality? Your occupation? Can you read and write? Have you ever been in prison? How much money do you have with you? Where are you going?

Immigrants were asked each of these from your list, along with several more (29) and depending on answers possibly more.  But the standard included:
What is your full name?
What is your occupation?
Can you read or write?
What is your race?
Have you ever been to prison?
How much money do you have?
Are you meeting a relative if yes, address was needed...

The key questions were: (they wanted to know if you could contribute to America or if you were going to be a burden.)
What is your occupation?
How much money do you have?
Are you coming to America for a job?

In what ways can lady catherine be considered comical
Irina18 [472]
She may be considered comical due her lack of control in stating her opinions when talking to other characters. She makes an answer up for her own question as to why they were so underprivileged to have not had the chance and this is comical because it shows how her character is quick to judge. Or something a long those lines. I hope that helps, I was just taking a shot in the dark.
