Answer:

Option B, Many nativist groups opposed continued immigration, is the right answer.

Explanation:

In the decade of 1920's, the restrictions on immigration increased. The government of the United States enacted the Immigration Act in the year 1924 to put restrictions on immigration. This act was the most severe of all the acts made to control immigration because it limited the overall number of immigrants and introduced quotas based on the nationality of immigrants.

The introduction of this act resulted in a sharp reduction in the number of immigrants coming from Eastern Europe and Africa and it completely restricted the immigration of Asians except for Japan and the Philippines. The government of the United States passed these immigration laws because many native groups opposed the continued migration in America.

What is the author’s purpose in the section ""Recruiting in new places""
nalin [4]

Answer:

The author's purpose is to highlight the efforts made by army recruiters in getting new recruits from schools and communities that have little enlistment of soldiers.

Explanation:

The article, 'Who are fighting American wars'? by Dave Philipps and Tim Arango, discusses the challenges faced by the army as it pertains to recruitment. The army noticed that there was a skewed attribute in the number of people applying to be soldiers, most coming from the same communities, or families where a parent or relative was once a soldier. The authors noted that such a challenge would not help the army who needs more recruits.

The subheading, 'Recruiting in new places', highlights the efforts made by the military recruiters, to first understand the challenge as seen in the visit of the Army Secretary Ryan D.  McCarthy who visited officials from the  Los Angeles Unified School District to enable them get more students to join the military. Secondly, the recruiters had to actively seek out new recruits. The few recruits discussed had to put in a lot of thinking before making the decision to join the military or opt out.
