Read the excerpt from a letter about the Minidoka Relocation Center. It was written by Japanese American Kenji Okuda, who was re

located during World War II. Which two statements represent the central idea of the passage?
The camp is still very far from complete. They had to interrupt movement for a week because of lack of housing facilities—in fact, the last group of 500 who left had to sleep in mess halls, laundry rooms, and any available bed space. The W.R.A. officials were trying hard enough to have the Army stop the wholesale movement—but the Army waited until they were absolutely certain that the camp over there could hold no more. There are about 4,500 there now—and no running hot water as of the latest reports. The sewage and lavatory facilities are still uncompleted—residents are using outhouses until all construction is completed. The dust out there in the midst of the Minidoka desert, the sagebrush and bugs, must be terrific. Most of the people there suffer from sore throats, and dust storms are terrific—can’t see more than a couple of feet ahead. Many of the residents get nosebleeds—the fine sand seems to wreak havoc with almost everything. It is entirely possible that if we are there long enough and get water on the soil, we will be able to make a veritable “Garden of Eden.” The first two years will be hard—how many will be able to live through it and come through triumphant?

A. Housing facilities at Minidoka were inadequate because the camp was overcrowded.
B. The US Army and the War Relocation Authority disagreed over the number of evacuees to be moved into the camp.
C. People in the Minidoka Relocation Center did not even have a place to sleep.
D. Living conditions in the Minidoka relocation camp were poor and unhealthy.
E. It was possible to convert the arid Minidoka desert into fertile farmland.

I know the answer is not A and B. Try your best, please.

Underline the best transition words.
Maslowich

Once we underline the<u> best transition words</u>, we have the following:

Baseball is one of America's most popular sports. Some of its heroes, indeed, some very talented athletes shared their wealth to help other people. For example, Jackie Robinson was 28 when he started playing professional baseball in 1947 and played for 10 years. Likewise, Willie Mays was 20 when he started playing in 1951 and played for about 22 years. In fact, they played against each other in the 1954 World Series when Mays and the New York Giants scored 7 runs, and Robinson and the Brooklyn Dodgers scored 16.

We can define transition words as words used to<u> connect</u> other words, <u>phrases, ideas, sentences, or paragraphs</u>. Transition words help readers move forward through the text smoothly and help authors link their thoughts in an understandable way.

The transition word "indeed" can be used for<u> emphasis, agreement, or support.</u> In the text above, it is supporting and explaining that the heroes are very talented players.

The text moves on to offer two <u>examples</u> of very talented players, which is why we should choose the transition "for example."

After mentioning Robinson, the author mentions Mays, showing a similarity between the two. <u>To show similarity</u>, the best transition is "likewise".

Finally, the author adds the information that both players played against each other. <u>To add information</u>, "in fact" is the best option as a transition word.

In conclusion, the text above has been completed with the transition words that best suit its meaning.
