Answer:The line from the text that best supports the central idea of Immigrants being treated poorly on their journey to a new life is c.Scowling and gesturing, they pushed and pulled the passengers, herding us into separate groups as though we were animals.

Explanation:

The central idea found in The Immigrant Kids was that immigrants were often treated poorly on their journey to a new life and this was buttressed by the line from the text which said that the immigrants were pushed and pulled and also herded into separate groups as if they were animals.

Being pushed and pulled by scowling men and herding immigrants like animals is an example of the poor treatment they faced most times on their journey to a new life.

Answer:

It shows what a large group of crows looks like in the sky.

Explanation:

"Metaphor" refers to something that stands as a symbol or representation of another thing. In paragraph 5, "huge, black cloud" refers to "how the large group of crows looks like in the sky." Crows are black in color and if many of them will flock together or join together, they will certainly look like a huge, black cloud. There is<em> no direct relationship</em> between the crows and the clouds. so this also makes it a metaphor.

So, this explains the answer.
