Answer:

B

Explanation:

The first choice is already in the excerpt. Not A

Maybe the second choice. My grandparents could have answered that question.

I don't think how many people immigrated is much of a choice. What we are interested in here is how they suffered to get to America.

The length of time is of interest, but the answer in my mind, is B

What theme in the novel does the arrival of the missionaries best illustrate?
iVinArrow [24]
In Things Fall Apart, the arrival of the missionaries best illustrate the struggle between tradition and change.

While many resist the changes the missionaries bring, many like them. The missionaries bring new goods to the village and export village goods, bringing money into the village. This trade, however, has its drawbacks. Meanwhile, conversation between village elders and Mr. Brown allows them to understand one another. Mr. Brown tries to encourage the elders to educate their children, explaining this will bring hope for their futures.

Although many welcome these changes, others -- including Okonkwo -- are resistant. He and a few others do not like this change and even openly resist it. They value their traditions and do not want them altered.

Therefore, of the many themes in the novel, the one represented by the arrival of the missionaries is "the struggle between tradition and change."
