Read this excerpt from Immigrant Kids, by Russell Freedman. Now the examinations began. First the immigrants were examined by tw

o doctors of the United States Health Service. One doctor looked for physical and mental abnormalities. When a case aroused suspicion, the immigrant received a chalk mark on the right shoulder for further inspection: L for lameness, H for heart, X for mental defects, and so on. The second doctor watched for contagious and infectious diseases. He looked especially for infections of the scalp and at the eyelids for symptoms of trachoma, a blinding disease. Since trachoma caused more than half of all medical detentions, this doctor was greatly feared. He stood directly in the immigrant's path. With a swift movement, he would grab the immigrant's eyelid, pull it up, and peer beneath it. If all was well, the immigrant was passed on. Which detail best supports the idea that only immigrants with good health were allowed entrance into the United States? One doctor drew chalk marks on immigrants with health problems. The two doctors worked for the United States Health Service. An H mark on an immigrant meant he or she had heart problems. Trachoma is a blinding and very contagious eye disease.

Answer:

A horse.

Explanation:

A mount is another form of referring to a horse or any animal that one can ride on. It comes from the act of 'mounting', the act of getting up on the animal and riding it.

In this case, Don Quixote's horse is being described as <em>"old and bony, but it was a mount, nonetheless."</em> This means that even though the horse was old and skinny, it can still be mounted. Thus, the mount in the sentence refers to a horse.

What is the climax of a story of orpheus
MrRa [10]
The climax of a story of Orpheus is when he was up on the land of the living and he looked back at Eurydice, even though Pluto said both of them had to be out of Hades/the underworld before he could look at her.
This is the climax of the story, because after it, he realized he would never see his love again because he broke his promise to Pluto.
